    This site has no indexed pages in google yet.. I changed to the current script last summer, and submitted a sitemap a couple months ago, but still nada.. Anybody have a clue why this is?

    Thanks!

    Going by this tool HERE, your domain is banned from Google.
    Also, it looks like youre using articles scrapped from article dirs, therefore not unique.

    It may be time to move on to another domain.

    Well, if the above is true, using other peoples articles, you dont necessarily have to start on a new domain. Bots will still crawl your site, so i you change the site, with totally unique content it could get indexed. But starting on a new domain could be for the better.

    Thanks for the input, I had no idea the domain was banned, or why it was.. Is that usually permanent?

    Its already been stated above, your site is just full of duplicate content, that's most likely the reason, to be honest the domain probably is not banned, simply Google won't index any of your pages.

    It will be banned until you fix the problem on your site. Afterwards you can Request a reconsideration via the Google webmaster tools.

    Lack of unique content tells google all the pages on your site are available elsewhere, and probably from sites with more authority, therefore there is no point to index it

    Generally, it's easier to start from the beginning again, rather than try and fix something that's broke.

    Thanks again for the input, the script was given to me and I can see what you mean, all the content relating to the dog breeds etc was copied from somewhere else.
    I knew it was not good to have a lot of duplicate content on a site, I just had no idea that google wouldn't index it because of that fact alone.

    You should get a new domain name and make sure you use original articles on your
    site.

    You are not using unique content, that's why your site banned from SE.
