Google had not indexed my site for about a month and results were not showing up. I added my site to google webmaster tools and now it is indexed (why that would change it I don't know) but it still has a PR of unranked (not zero) Can anyone tell me if this is blacklisted: http://blog.cubecheck.com/ If so any idea why? If not, any idea when I will get a PR?
There are already thousands of posts on PR for you to review. Quick answer: PR comes 100% from backlinks. Toolbar updates come when Google feels like doing it - usually every 3-4 months. Forget about PR, it is meaningless.
I'm not asking about pagerank, I'm asking about being blacklisted and just mentioned pagerank as part of the information. I have backlinks, I know that. Just looking to see why I am not indexed.
Is is possible I was blacklisted due to using a pinging service and it being redundant with the one already in wordpress?
You already stated your site was now indexed, and it is - so I don't understand why you posted "Just looking to see why I am not indexed"?. One thing I saw is that some of your content looks like an exact copy of your ezine articles, which is something you shouldn't do. You want your sites content to be unique to your site. Write different articles for ezine.
The problem is the rate of index is EXTREMELY slow. Months here. As for the articles what I do is post them on my site first so google sees my site as the authoritative version of the content and the other sites as the copy. (though this slow indexing is not helping) Also I just posted the articles this week and this problem has been going on for a while now so I think it was an earlier problem that caused it.
That's not how google treats content. They go with the most site that has the most authority - and ezine beats your site. Your version will look like duplicate content. Ezine is the first site that comes up for your own content. You aren't blacklisted, you just don't have enough quality backlinks. Add your site in google webmaster tools and see if it shows any problems.
I think your website isn't blacklisted but only needs time to be indexed in Google. N/A Pagerank is usually an indication that your blog isn't being recognized by Google yet. You need to work on quality link building for your blog. Putting more link bait to your main site page could help your blog be indexed faster.
Your website is still fairly new. One advice: Patience. Google doesn't guarantee fast indexation. Your blog wasn't also blacklisted, they just weren't able to index or crawl it sooner.
Your right it is listing ezine first. Good to know, thanks. I don't think that should cause a blacklist though. I added my site to webmaster tools a few days ago and the worrying part is that it has very little craw data and no info on anything else
Exactly. My first post was in November of LAST YEAR! It should not still be NA it should be zero at least. It is not that new and google does not take 9 months to index something. It seems like an indication of a penalization to me.
Hello, I just checked your site and found that it has been indexed by google, now concentrate on your backlinks and try to increase your no of posts and put some great content.. now a days google is crawling posts in seconds..
