    I know it's considered bad taste to post your own domain here, but I need some help from you guys.

    My site www.alojateextra.com is a directory of articles on web hosting.
    I have made all the SEO I can think of: posting on forums, directory submission, article submission, etc. The domain even has some 50 backlinks already.

    However, it only has 2 pages indexed on google.

    What am I doing wrong? Please help

    Yes, I do have a sitemap submited to google. No errors there acording to google.

    I know that most content is not unique since I receive articles from a number of sites, however, there are a lot of sites that receive similar content and are quite well indexed.

    I am still lost here :(

    I think Google is getting tough on pure Article sites with duplicate content and its unfortunate because everyone suffers then !

    Best of Luck!
