I have 6 URL errors in GSC showing a 500 error code. How do I fix?
-
I am not sure how to fix some errors that are popping up in Google Search Console. The response codes showing are all: 500 error code
I need some advice as to how to fix these. What are my options?
-
That's ok. I understand that. I may have to run this by my developers. Thanks for your input!
-
It's hard to say with any certainty because you need to have a look and test, but these normally occur due to a malformed rewrite of some sort.
Sorry for being a bit vague but it's one of those things that is hard to address fully.

Thanks Andy,
What potential problems could be occurring with the .htaccess file?
-
Hi Patrick,
There are a few reasons for a 500, with the main one being a server error.
However, this can also occur if there are timeouts or even problems with the .htaccess file.
If you think that it is fixed and that Google has it wrong, mark them as fixed and then do another fetch as Google.

Same URL-Structure & the same number of URLs indexed on two different websites - can it lead to a Google penalty?
Hey guys. I've got a question about the url structure on two different websites with a similar topic (bith are job search websites). Although we are going to publish different content (texts) on these two websites and they will differ visually, the url structure (except for the domain name) remains exactly the same, as does the number of indexed landingpages on both pages. For example, www.yyy.com/jobs/mobile-developer & www.zzz.com/jobs/mobile-developer. In your opinion, can this lead to a Google penalty? Thanks in advance!

What to do with dynamically translated content sharing same urls?
We've just added to an originally English website, Italian and German translations. User can switch between them with right hand drop down language selection menu; then the entire page will be translated (including menu, body, footer) but the urls remain the same. The Italian page have some meta data (titles and descriptions) translated as well. Is it going to be a significantly negative effect on SEO to have the translated pages sharing the same urls?

Rich snippets error?
hello everyone, I have this problem with the rich snippets: http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.visalietuva.lt%2Fimone%2Ffcr-media-lietuva-uab The problem is that it says some kind of error.

The snippets appear on Google and works perfectly.

URL rewrite traffic drop
Hello, A while ago (Sep. 19 2013) we had a new url structure upgrade for products pages within our website (with all the needed 301 redirects in place,internal links & sitemaps updates), but our new urls lost the serps of the old ones and with that we experienced a big traffic drop (and since September I can't see any sign of recovery).
