Any issue with getting archived blog posts indexed?

    Hey all :)

    I'm probably just being impatient here :p But on the tech blog site I'm working on I decided I wanted to make the site look like it was older so I every one of the posts so far back to january and am just to set it up so there's one post per day. The site gets a steady amount of traffic outside the search engines and has some links. Was just wondering if the whole 'archived' status can possibly cause issues with the site being indexed since the posts are now probably in type of archived mode (even though they're on the homepage).

    Another concern was if me using google webmaster tools to remove the prior website caused any issues.

    But anyways, I know I'm just being impatient but thought I would just double check. One of my other websites which basically has the same amount of links and traffic gets indexed instantly. Seriously...I made a post today on the other site and within 2 minutes i already had 10 hits. Sure enough, I searched Google and there was the page.

    You're just being impatient. I had a site that stopped indexing for about 2 months, and then all of a sudden every post in the blog was indexed.

    Yeah I think so too :p But just paranoid. Another thing that cautioned me was that my Google Webmaster tools were still reporting robots.txt blocks. But I had removed the robots.txt a while back. But anyways I'll wait a couple weeks to see how to goes :)

    ehh, still no luck getting indexed :p grrr... and I was helping someone out with modifications on their site and for testing purposes uploaded it to my server onto a test subdomain and now I've accidently got that indexed and it only took about a day lol

    I know maybe I'm still just being a bit impatient. But I'm worried that Google is maybe blocking my site out because I used the webpage removal tool before to completely un-index my site from their search results. Strange thing is, my Google Webmaster Tools are showing that the site has all of my pages indexed :|
