Not indexed after almost 4 months

    Hi there,

    I registred a domain for one of my blogs, almost 4 months ago. Two months after registring, I launched the blog, submitted it to Google and a couple of other sites to get it indexed. After a little while I started commenting on other blogs and even managed to get a sitewidth link from John Chow (being and top commentor). I also managed to be a top commentor on three other blogs. I have also had it in my DP signature for a couple of weeks now.

    I never though I would find myself making a post like this, but I don't really have an answer to this one. Why isn't my blog even indexed yet?

    Here is the blog: Kenneth Dreyer

    I get indexed immediately. A few links, then I do a digg and a stumbleupon and boom its almost instant. Is the domain name new?

    I see your home page when I do a site://kennethdreyer.com/ at google

    Do some links with digg on some individual pages not just the home page.
    Make sure you stumbleupon and digg each post. you'll get immediate traffic and the links help with site indexing.

    Good luck.

    I just stumbled your site and gave you a review. you should have some traffic in your stats tomorrow from this.

    www.stumbleupon.com

    Also I would make it easy from people to social book mark your blog. I use a plugin called Gregarious

    Look at my blog if you curios how it work.... The link in near my photo.

    Good Luck

    Hi, there are many ways to be indexed. In fact, I do not really recommend submitting your url to Google. Takes a long time. Let the spiders come naturally.

    Use social bookmarks like what bogart said. Or even write an article to post to the article directories like GoArticles, EzineArticles etc.

    Whole idea is to put your link in heavily spidered sites so that they will follow your link and index it. Are you using "No follow, no index" in your meta-tag or robots.txt by accident? ;)

    WTF..

    I had this in my code:
    <meta name='robots' content='noindex,nofollow' />
    Code (markup):
    I had no idea wordpress did that be default. I would never set that setting myself. Thanks for the heads-up homebizbuilder..
