Help! I have no idea why but google has just dropped my site www.ramprage.com completely from their index. Can anyone help me find out why? Its been listed for over 5 years without any issues until now without warning!
As far as I can see, you haven't been dropped. When I do a search for site:ramprage.com, Google has 86,500 entries ! It shows only 10, but when I ask for the omitted results to be included, 64,100 pages are listed. http://www.google.com/search?q=site:ramprage.com
Your search - site:ramprage.com - did not match any documents. Your search - site:www.ramprage.com - did not match any documents. No pages are in google
also: Your search - site:http://www.ramprage.com - did not match any documents. try the reinclusion request form on google sitemaps.
Yes, you are not there... when this has happened? Try to send Google an email about that, they may answer you.
Your still in Google Results 1 - 10 of about 11,400 for www.ramprage.com Results 1 - 10 of about 14,300 for ramprage.com Your search - http://ramprage.com - did not match any documents. Your search - http://www.ramprage.com - did not match any documents. problem is you have your links are all screwy use the htaccess file to resolve all urls to the full URL
Any tip on using the .htaccess exactly? you mean make sure www. is included in all links? Whats the rewrite I add for this? It just happened within the past couple days. I sent an email to Adsense about it. I've never used Google Sitemaps before, should I try now?
http://search.dmoz.org/cgi-bin/search?search=ramprage The sites still in DMOZ but no longer in google. As per their FAQ http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=34443&hl=en_US http://www.google.com/search?num=100&q=site:www.ramprage.com gives me the following: Your search - site:www.ramprage.com - did not match any documents.
Yes use one URL when building links. This will also help Google PageRank applied fully to your site This is the code you would add to your .htaccess file 1st line is “RewriteEngine On†this tells Apache to enable Mod_rewrite 2nd line is “RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^yourwebsite\.com$ [NC]†looks for when people access yourwebsite.com. The “[NC]†flag makes the test case-insensitive, so it catches all URLs like yOuRWeBSItE.com. 3rd line “RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.yourwebsite.com/$1 [R=301,L]†redirects yourwebsite.com to http://www.yourwebsite.com with a 301 redirect. Make sure to change the URL to your website URL and not the example Peace
Thanks. Could it be because I have a few parked domains that forward to ramprage.com like ramprage.ca?
could be ...most often its others who link to you do it in whatever way theyu build the link http://www.ramprage.com or www.ramprage.com etc That also dilutes you G PR and the rewrite will pull all the PR into 1 value. Are you using a Google Sitemap? Peace
No but Im going to add the sitemap now. Had my own sitemap at http://www.ramprage.com/sitemap.php I'm going to remove all the parked domains.
yes the sitemap on your site is good for users. Get a nice link directly to it for added botcrawl fun... The google sitemap should help as well in time... Peace
I've found this extermely helpful if anyone else ever gets dropped from google https://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps/sitestatus Then I signed up and clicked on manage for my site and this ! warning was shown: "No pages from your site are currently included in Google's index due to violations of the webmaster guidelines. Please review our webmaster guidelines and modify your site so that it meets those guidelines. Once your site meets our guidelines, you can request reinclusion and we'll evaluate your site. [?] Submit a reinclusion request " I don't see anything wrong with the site - nothing has changed in years so no clue why they are telling me this. I submited the reinclusion request and am hoping its just a fluke.
