Advice on my website being indexed

    Hello all,
    Okay, something odd with my website. A few weeks ago, it was being indexed by google every 2 days or so, and I kept adding content to the main page, and the indexing would occur slightly more frequently.
    However, I noticed a couple of weeks ago, that the index page of my site was no longer indexed in google, which was slightly odd. I then looked on the google sitemaps, and the last time it says my site was indexed, was 10th December. This is very odd, as crawlings used to be very frequent.
    However, if I look at other pages of my website, they do get crawled freuqently.
    So, I was wondering what is wrong to cause my index page to be not included in the crawl?
    Thanks in advance, and have great new year!

    how about on your inbound links.. we all know that links is the best way to find a site, and even without a sitemap SE's still crawls site by the help of links.

    fresh content is a good option but i will go with links.

    Yea, it is really odd.
    Although, this time it is not the fact that webmaster sitemaps is lying, it is the fact that my index page no longer exists in the google index.
    I update my homepage most days, and with 1,038, I would have thought my index page would be a favourite.
    :/

    Strange. However, good indexed most of my pages, the only thing odd happen to me is I only published 700 pages but the number of indexed pages shows 1350 at google.
