Some advices:
First make sure your website is SEO friendly and is crawl-able by search engines.
Second make sure to publish your webpage site-map to Google.
To do that add your site to Google Webmaster and submit your sitemap (XML, RSS, ATOM feed formats).
Consider using URL rewriting tool to convert your URLs from DYNAMIC to more SEO and user friendly version:
Example:
FROM:
example.com/product?id=100
TO:
example.com/nameproduct

I have generated a sitemap from online generators, it seems to be working and even i tested it on old google search console sitemap testor and it works. but when i submit it in both versions it just displays error message.
This is a known bug. See this Google support answer.
In my case, it's the sitemap that had a syntax error.
You should open sitemaps in Firefox, it will tell you if you have a syntax error.
Your sitemap domain address might have changed. If it is wordpress use yoast plugin, where search console will automatically consider sitemap.xml
I had the same problem and the solution was very simple, just put the full path to your sitemap.
Where the console asks 'add new sitemap', instead of writing /sitemap.xml, write the full path, such as https://example.com/sitemap.xml.
That should fix the problem.
Using the yoast SEO plugin which built out 10 sitemaps, the index got red the first time and only one of the sub-sitemaps did. I manually visited the other sitemaps (likely they took to long to respond I thought) and deleted the sitemap on google search console and re-uploaded. All were read that time.
I had this issue and it was because I didn't set the content-type to application/xml
This sitemap validator notified me of the issue: https://www.xml-sitemaps.com/validate-xml-sitemap.html
Enter the full URL of your sitemap, e.g., https://example.com/sitemap.xml. Also, ensure your sitemap name does not include numbers and symbols.
I have recently launched a website & therefore trying to figure out the Seo tricks to make it more visible. I use prerender.io to render javascript.
Can you please tell me how to show extended url results besides the main website link? Is there anything specific i need to do to get the results in the particular format?
For Example : Here main url is Google Voice & rest extended urls.
Well , There is no rules for this structure. Often, my old sites got structured but not the new one.
Google have their own theory for make this structure.
One of my client having website which is entirely based on API Content i.e. content coming from 3rd party website. He wants to do some seo on the data. I wonder if it is possible as there is data not available in his database and i think google crawler redirect to 3rd party website while crawling on such pages. We already asked for permission from that website owner to let us store API data on our end in order to do some SEO but he refused our request.
It will be highly appericited if you can suggest any other way that should not be against policies and guidelines.
Thank You

Yes - with a huge BUT:
Google explains how parameters can be set within their Search Console (Google Webmaster) and how these can effect the crawler's behaviour.
#Nadeem Haddadeen is right with the canonical links between duplicates. There's also an issue if you don't have consistent content when calling up the same parameters. This essentially makes your page un-indexable as it's dynamic content. If you are dealing with dynamic content then you need to optimise a host page based around popular queries rather than trying to have your content rate itself.
It's not recommended to take the same content and post it on your website, its duplicate and Google will give you penalty.
If you still want to post it on your website, you have to make some changes on the original text and then post it on your website to look like its original.
Also if you want to keep it without any changes and to avoid any penalties from Google, you you have to add a link for the original article from your website or add a cross domain canonical link like the below example:
<link rel="canonical" href="https://example.com/original-article-url" />
How to get such header title and search input in Google search for website like below:
I am doing my website with core PHP (not any CMS like WordPress, Drupal etc.). So please help me to get such a result in Google.
This is called Sitelinks.
Check it out here: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/47334?hl=en
It's an Google automated process and you can't do much to control it. Although a google search on "how to get sitelinks" gives you plenty of results on how to get them, for example, here, or here.
Or perhaps you can purchase them under your AdWords advertisement.
As far as I know, it is much related to PHP. It's more on Search Engine Optimization (SEO).
I have a website which when you first go to the website it will just display the normal domain so /. When they use the form they will get forwarded to lets say /question/DYNAMIC(question id).
So google has no way to see these links.
Is there a way to tell google about all of these links without manually putting these in and without having to keep this up-to-date as some question might be removed at a later date?
