Google Not Indexing Your Sitemap URLs? Might Be A Canonical Issue

A Google Webmaster Help thread has a webmaster all upset that Google shows that they have indexed none of the URLs they submitted via the XML Sitemap file. Obviously, this can be concerning to any webmaster.


The thing is, you need to be careful what Sitemap file you submit. If you verify a non-www version with Google Webmaster Tools and submit a www version of your sitemap, or visa versa, Google may be very literal and show you that they didn't index any non-www versions of your URL.


All the URLs listed in your XML Sitemap are non www. and they all permanently redirect to the www. version (which is your preferred domain). That explains why these specific URLs are not indexed. In order to fix that, you'll need to specify the right URLs with www., resubmit your Sitemap and wait for it to be processed again


So technically, it is an "easy fix" and the site is indeed being indexed. But a report like this can be scary to see in Google Webmaster Tools.

How to Open multiple links by a single click

Hello fellow Bloggers. A reader just asked about opening more than 1 link by clicking a link. I am presenting down the html code for that. You can open as many links by clicking single anchor text link. All the links will open in new tabs.

To open link in new tab

A regular link can be opened in new tab. Just place target='_blank' after the URL.
Like this
<a href="URL link" target="_blank">Text to Display</a>

To open multiple links in new tabs

To open more than one links just add the following code
onclick="window.open(&quot;YOUR_2nd_URL&quot;);"

Your link html will look like this
<a href="1st Link" onclick="window.open(&quot;2nd_Link&quot;);">Link Text</a> 

Just take this example Blogger SEO by UK . This link will open our homepage in current tab and 2nd link in new tab. But the text shown is one for both link tabs. Down is the html code.
<a href="http://www.blogtipsuk.com/" onclick="window.open(&quot;http://www.blogtipsuk.com/2015/05/how-to-make-money-with-infolinks-on-blogger.html&quot;);">Blogger SEO by UK</a> 

You can add as many links as you like with this code.
Hope its clear for all the readers. Have a good day!
