Hi guys, my new site,(in sig) got indexed in google in about 2 days with links from forums. However only my homepage is indexed, in past experience it took ages for google to start indexing other pages of my site, is there any way to speed up the process? I have already submitted a sitemap, shall I just put a link in my sig to a random page on my site and try and get google crawling that? thanks
Get better quality links the forums. Try and purchase a couple of one-way links from the link sales forum here. Write an article and submit to www.EzineArticles.com or www.GoArticles.com . Basically, get more links and you'll get indexed fully.
Sandbox doesn't remove pages outta the index, only "demotes" them. Like I suggested already, get some good incoming links to your site and you'll get indexed. I'd really try and get your own domain though, as you're at the mercy of the person who actually owns that domain. Domains and hosting are cheap, like $5 a month.
You just have to be patient and wait for the rest of the site to index. You can speed the process up by getting more links.
I am wondering, if i buy a domain name for a few £, how do I host it? Because then I own then domain but I don't own any hosting for it? can I use a free hosting account with a .co.uk or .com domain or not? I'm a bit confused about buying a domain without hosting....
try DreamHost for some good hosting. HUGE bandwidth so when the traffic pours in, youll be able to have bandwidth to cover it. they also have unlimited domain hosting, so your next sites you buy domains for, youll already have the hosting. - Robert DeVore
I bought my .co.uk domain through www.Freeparking.co.uk. They provide a web forwarding feature to my actual website (free with ISP) using frames. It's not ideal, and some may say that SE will see this as cloaking, but it works just fine for me. They've recently introduced 302 redirects for all URLs below your top-level domain (which I'm not using, but might experiment with). Hope that helps... Cryo.
I looked at GO-Articles and it seems to be full of spam articles (at least, the relevant category for my articles is, perhaps unsurprisingly). Are there any better places to submit that don't charge?
