Hi there,
all your pages have been indexed in Google.
To check that you can write site:burglaralarminstallers.com in the G search bar and you’ll see there are 5 pages (if I’m not wrong).
I recently read all the Google ranking factors and 301 doesn’t decrease the ranking so much, but if they are too many I suggest you to try to solve them.
If some pages are not indexed make sure you have an account in the Google Search Console where you uploaded a valid sitemap. Some SEO plugins like Rank Math SEO automatically generate and update a sitemap so you olny have to copy and paste the url in the GSC and then you can forget it.

A couple of other things I noticed on your site (to improve both seo and UX):
1) the email addresses are wrong. It’s not sales@WWW.bulg…. , just sales@bulg…. (remove WWW.);
2) your H tags are not written in the best way. It seems like you have H4 which should be H1 (this decrease the ranking). Here a nice tool that gives you a very basic overview http://tools.neilpatel.com/en/analyze/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.burglaralarminstallers.com%2F
3) Add an ALT tag to all the images;
4) Make sure you’re using a caching plugin (actually I think the easiest but complited one to use WP Fastest Cache);
5) Try to build more backlinks (ex. from social media, from field websites and so on). Make sure links are natural or probably Google will notice that (sooner or later).
Hi
Thanks for the reply, the pages indexed are wrong but I guess they will update eventually but back to the linking, do you know a way to resolve this. I’ve tried redirecting through plugins and I’m still getting the issue. Is it something to do with the theme I’m using?
Thanks Matteo, some issues I’m still working on but haven’t had the time to fix them while kn trying to sort out the internal links.

These are the issues that are currently coming up on this seo checker. Is it a problem? I’m stumped on this

I can’t see that report because I don’t have an account (SEOchecker is in my seo suite but I don’t use it yet).
I run an audit to check your url redirect. What I got are all 200 (so ok) and one 504 on the cropped-1_Texecom-logo or something like that. https://tools.pingdom.com/#5a72133e70000000
Okay cool, I think this is probably just the seo checker then. I’ve been on this issue for days and I’ve got nowhere so maybe there isnt a problem after all. Thank you for your help

Here a useful article to understand what’s the 504 is and how to solve it. If you can’t solve it then I suggest you to ask for help to your hosting provider.

P.S: make sure that changing your nameservers from the hosting ones to the CloudFlare ones you did all well.
What do you mean with the cloud flare bit?
I copied and pasted the 2 they give me and it’s all gone through.
Sorry I’m a noob at this. It’s a project I’m doing to move on a bit from html and Css and get into the javascript and server side

What I can tell you is that when I go on your website I’ve no problem, and the audits talk only about a 504 (which anyway would be great to solve).
Another thing you should check: if you setted https://burglaralarminstallers.com (without www) in WP dashboard > Settings > General (both links of WP address and Site address).
The main things to make/fix are listed before.

@mikehill1234 reading the article I sent you on the 504 you’ll see it’s a redirect problem between http and https (that’s why I suggest you to check the setting on wp)
I done a fix in the phpconfig for my site to go to https as I registered it with go daddy as http.
I did use a plugin to to change all images to https but maybe one didn’t go through. This may be a reason why I got an error in my google search console

Great!
I wrote you have no H1: I mistaken, but I suggest you to put the phone number in the head as h3/4 or normal text (even if it’s the same size) and the sub text “Quality Security systems for home and business” H2 instead of text
Although when I look in settings I see that site url is https. But wordpress url is http. Is this okay?
Anonymous User 16881303

Nope, both https (they should be the same and without www)
Have you got any idea how to change the wordpress url?
