On site issues after Magento 2 launch
-
We did a new site launch on Feb 7th this year - www.vesternet.com
It changed from Magento 1 to Magento 2. We had some launch issues around SEO but now we've solved most every crawler issue in Moz reporting - according to Moz we're in better shape on-site than ever.
But our organic search is just dropping daily - we expected a drop after launch then back to normal, but over 2 months on something just isn't right.
A good example, on Google UK for keyword 'home automation' we've always been about position 10, but now we're out the top 50...
Forget about off site for now - what's wrong with our site itself to have caused this?
Can anyone help with insights please as this is killing our sales

Hi,
We're dealing with the same problem after our Magento migration. Did you find out what caused the organic drop?
Looking forward to hear from you

Hi dbsmtec,
It'll be tough for anyone to tell you without auditing your particular website what's likely up here.
If you have seen a gradual drop, there could be a confounding factor afoot - UX issues, for example, are often behind otherwise unexplained organic traffic trends. Page speed is sometimes an issue with Magento - was there any negative impact on performance in the upgrade?
If the drop has been site-wide and gradual, I'd suspect it's something related to UX/user interactions that is causing the drop. If it was sudden, it's more likely (but not necessarily) a technical issue. Looking at traffic across page types can sometimes help narrow your scope.
Again, it's tough to say without looking at your particular site and performance data, and even then, I'm afraid, the answer may prove elusive.
Best of Luck,
Mike -
It may be that the migration has not been done correctly. Magneto took out a pdf with instructions for successful migration. Have you done this or have you used another manual?
I leave the link with the pdf. I hope I've helped.

How do I fix my portfolio causing duplicate content issues?
Hi, Im new to this whole duplicate content issue. I have a website, fatcatpaperie.com that I use the portofolio feature in Wordpress as my gallery for all my wedding invitations. I have a ton of duplicate content issues from this. I don't understand at all how to fix this. I'd appreciate any help! Below is an example of one duplicate content issue. They have slightly different names, different urls, different images and all have no text. But are coming up as duplicates. Would it be as easy as putting a different metadescription for each?? Thanks for the help!

Stolen Content reposted on other sites. How does this affect ranking?
Visitors often copy and paste my content and post it elsewhere... on Facebook, on Tumblr, on forums and sometimes on competing websites... but they don't link to me. How does Google treat this duplicated content? What is the best way to handle it? File DCMA claims or ask them for a link?

How to use canonical with mobile site to main site
I am pretty sure that the mobile version of the main site needs to be the same canonical link from what I understand. I am trying to find good docuementation that supports this. Even better if its from Google or Matt Cutts. I have a main domain like http://www.mydomain.com the mobile version of this is http://www.mydomain.com/m/ Should my canonical be rel="canonical" href="http://www.mydomain.com"/> for both these pages?
