Google indexes interior sub-level page as main page

Need help
1

Hello everyone - we launched the site but now I am trying to get our SEO/indexing all figured out. Need help with SEO settings… I searched for my site on Google: https://mywellex.com/
but the link actually leads to: https://mywellex.com/member_profile (so Google has indexed member_profile as our homepage) -
Even if you just type in: mywellex.com into the browser it will refers to: https://mywellex.com/member_profile
(I am so unsure as to why this is happening or how to fix)

Can someone help me with how to tell Google that they need to index: https://mywellex.com as the main site page and not the interior page of member_profile (which I have since changed to member-profile as I read that the underscore is ignored - so now it is a hyphen).

If it has to do with adding customized robot text, please be very descriptive as I am kinda new to this game. :slight_smile: - thank you for helping this newbie.

I think this might be auto complete getting in the way in your browser or something. Everything looks fine to me.

Google has indexed 6 pages, and I can see the homepage is ranked first and when I click it I get directed to the homepage, not the member_profile page

Thanks @josh24 - appreciate it. 1 more quick question if you don’t mind. We have both individual pages (info pages that include images and text) and specialties (these are information related articles that people can read to learn more) - both are dynamically generated… would it be better to have them as static pages for SEO or does dynamic get picked up - I have heard that static with regular links is better, but I have also heard that bots can recognize and categorize dynamic… any advice?

Thank you again for you help.

Make sure you’ve set the content type of the pages to the table in your database and you’re dynamically creating it that way - in that case you’ll get an auto-generated sitemap showing each of the individual pages etc.

Also make sure you’re interlinking the content using the link element vs. using and page workflows. Google can follow the link elements, but doesn’t run javascript (i.e. it cannot trigger any of the page workflows). So if you have any buttons etc on the page, Google won’t press them.

If you follow these rules I wouldn’t think you’ll be penalised in any way vs. a static page.
