Issue wth Shopify/Google Search Console
I manage a shopify site and our organic ranking has taken a considerable dip in the last year or two. My concern is we have a report from Search Console showing something in the region of 5600 pages, of which only 608 are being indexed.
That's likely about right when we take into consideration our landing pages, collection pages, product pages and variants of product pages.
Unfortunately this looks to be wasting a lot of our crawl budget with pages that shouldn't be crawled and google is telling us that around 70% of pages aren't crawled for the following reasons:
Crawled - currently not indexed
Alternate page with proper canonical tag (we have a uk. site)
Pages with redirect
On the 'crawled' list it looks though as Google is finding duplicate pages when it finds URLs using
?variant=
¤cy=
&country=
Has anyone come across this issue with Shopify and have you successfully resolved it with changes to robots.txt?
Any pointers appreciated!
