Seeking Help with SEO Indexing Issues on GSC

I’m experiencing some frustrating SEO issues after switching my blog URLs from ID-based to title-based URLs in my website. Here’s what I’m seeing:

  • Soft 404 Errors: In Google Search Console, when I run a live test on URLs, I get “URL is not available to Google” with “Page cannot be indexed: Soft 404” errors.
  • Canonical Tag Conflicts: Most blog pages aren’t indexing correctly and show “Duplicate without user-selected canonical” or “Alternate page with proper canonical tag” errors. Google is defaulting to an older indexed blog URL as canonical instead of my declared one.

Here’s what I’ve done so far:

  • Ensured all canonical tags are correctly set, as confirmed by inspecting in the browser.
  • Checked my website through Ahrefs SEO tool, which detected no canonical issues.

Despite these checks, indexing remains a challenge. I’m ready to pay for expert help on this! If you or someone you know has experience resolving similar indexing issues, I’d be grateful for any insights or referrals.Thank you in advance!

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?

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
