Google is telling search that some of my posts are 7 years old!!! Wth?

Since my traffic is so dysmal, I've often wondered if they blacklisted me. But I guess this works, too, if they want to bury me. No one wants to see a post this old, even if it's a cartoon.

I know there are plugins to update the date. I guess I could go in and just update everything, with no penalty.

But why are they doing this? Do they really think they're helping anyone? LOTS of people dont have a date in the url!!

Oh, no images allowed here? Search clearly points out that post (cartoon) is 7 years ago. :(

HTTP-HTTPS redirects: domain level or each URL?

Googling for answers seems to give conflicting answers here. We have a domain that has been HTTP but some individual URLs have been HTTPS (like form pages). We are about to deploy HTTPS redirect on the server to get everything going to https://www.domain.com . Do we have to go to the effort of a big 301 redirect list of all page-level URLs without Google dropping our earned page rank? Thanks all! submitted by /u/runtmc2 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/31dJ82b

One website, two properties (domains)

I wasn't sure how to frame that title so let me explain; Due to error on my part, I have ended up with, a www.xyz.com , version of my website, and one that's just xyz.com. Now I'm tracking my traffic differently on GSC and GA. I'm not sure how to feel about this. Is there anyone with a similar situation? Should I just go on like usual or are there things I need to start doing differently? Kindly advise. submitted by /u/Blessed_Dude_101010 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/87Z2MRA
