    hey everyone

    got a quick question.

    my site, i recently had a problem with. I have a blog that had its subfolder in /blog. There was some complications. I deleted the /blog and created /articles and uploaded all the posts that I saved. I upload the sitemap to google and I start getting like can't find /blog and none of my pages have been indexed for like three weeks now. What should I do?

    My site is www.paranormalknowledge.com

    Are you getting errors in Webmaster Tools? If not, you may just need to be patient. If it's not a high trafficked blog or if the content doesn't update too often, then you're at the mercy of their crawl rate. Keep writing posts and updating your blog to boost the frequency of the posts.

    If I understand you right you had a www.abc.com/blog and then changed it to www.abc.com/articles. I am assuming I am right.

    You have updated the updated sitemap but as already said Google might take a while to get things sorted at their end so be patient.

    Now a piece of advice. Since the url www.abc.com/blog is already indexed it might be getting some traffic so why waste it. Put a 301 redirect pointing at www.abc.com/articles. It would also help you in getting the issue being discussed here sorted much quicker.
