Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
Saurabh Jain Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 I see a huge fall in almost all of my communities For example Mechanical-engg.com use to have more then 100 K pages in search engine and as of today just 4000 I have veen running this community since 2007 The community has 140,000 members another community had 140,000 pages and now only 60 K links in google this is also dropping very fast ( www.Vidyasagar.Guru) This is an active community How should i diagnose it what are the factors to look into it I want to save my community ranking in google Regards Saurabh
Daniel F Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 Are you using google analytics or google search console? This should give you some insight.. Also don't forget that IPS 4.4.0 includes some SEO related changes https://invisioncommunity.com/news/product-updates/44-seo-improvements-r1116/ which will result in a drop of the indexed sites because sites with low quality (like empty profiles ) won't be indexed anymore.

If the organic search is not impacted then there is nothing to worry about. Google just purges the index from "unvaluable" content. It does not make sense to have 140K pages in index if only 10k from them really generate traffic.

Google ads are shown if relevant ads are found. You should check your website in incognito mode of your browser. Do you see any ads? If YOU do not see any, it just can be that there are no relevant ads for YOU (but not for your users). It happens often to the admins that browse hundreds of pages from own site daily.
Saurabh Jain Posted October 25, 2019 Author Posted October 25, 2019 From two websites In the second website , the graph showing that it is going down
Saurabh Jain Posted October 25, 2019 Author Posted October 25, 2019 One more thing- I found club pages -Topics in clubs , blogs in clubs are also not getting index properly those open clubs which one can read without joining
Sonya* Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 @Saurabh Jain, you have some sites. If you would like to investigate, you should take one site as example. It is difficult to help you, when you "jump" from one project to another in this topic. Considering clubs - which project you mean? What clubs? What topics are not indexed, that should be? Please add links.
Saurabh Jain Posted October 25, 2019 Author Posted October 25, 2019 Sorry I took two parallel sites... I have more communities... all are facing difficulties.... 1 Mechanical-engg.com drastically gone down ... It seems it is now here 2 Vidyasagar.guru has huge content and so I added two sites.... which seems to be as it is also rapidly going down.... For clubs I means - If I post in a Blog app which comes very quickly then compared to a post posted in Blog of a club.... assuming that there is read permission for guests

Some global tips: Check if they are included in sitemap. Check if your sitemap is added to Google Search Console Try to submit blog entry manually in Google Search Console, any issues?
Saurabh Jain Posted October 25, 2019 Author Posted October 25, 2019 Regarding adsense I told earlier - In all my sites I am viewing empty spaces on the header ads for example this post https://bi-analytics.org/topic/56-job-offers-in-bi-barcelona-spain/?tab=comments#comment-124 This is happening in all of my sites.... sorry I am now taking exaple from another site It just appeared so I added Google says : Increase your viewability. 3 minutes ago, Sonya* said: It is difficult to say something if you do not give links to the blog entries you mean.

Yes earlier it was working so great ... that t was never needed to submit manually - I used to show to client - see it appeared in 5 minutes this is again empty https://positivezeal.com/gallery/album/1942-rangoli/ though I landed on page with google searh
Saurabh Jain Posted November 11, 2019 Author Posted November 11, 2019 I just found that in all of my communities Ads in header section are not shown or shown only sometimes.... Regarding ad-sense I told earlier - In all my sites I am viewing empty spaces on the header ads for example this post Now as it showing empty ads ... I am removing it.... but every one who use adsense can confirm this issue...
