I have a good forum having lots of links inside it... lots of pages I have a forum too... But i saw that google has only indexed some pages of 5 or 10 or something...... google does not index my forum properly.... i dont know why! please help my site http://www.teen-hut.net/
Depth of indexing is related to the number and strength of the incoming links to your forum and the content. Make sure you have unique titles and meta tags for each page and try build more links to the forum. Remove any session id's and find a utility to create and submit an xml sitemap to google.
whats session ids? sorry not much know about computers! And... My title of the site is quite very general ==> the teen site isnt there any option of checking this site that what it lacks that google doesnt index it? http://www.teen-hut.net
Try to build more Links for your site this is the best tip. Also add this into Meta Tags. <meta NAME="ROBOTS" Content="index, follow"> <META content="General" name="rating"> <meta NAME="RATING" Content="All"> <meta NAME="DISTRIBUTION" Content="Global"> This works for me. Hope it works for you aswell.
Just tried to look at your site and it said I needed to login. Have you allowed googlebot to view your pages without a login? Also you don't need any of the meta tags posted by soul-healer. Looking at your indexed pages you really need to sort out some proper titles. At the top of each page alter the <title> tag to something descriptive about the content.
mad4 would you please explain why these tags arnt helpfull ? might be i am missing some technical thing
There is no technical thing they are just not needed. Search engines look at pages fine without them so why waste bandwidth including them? Take a look at the pyramidlinking.com site for inspiration. I used the meta keywords tag and the description tag. There is no robots.txt either. This site was indexed and cached within a day and has PR5 after 4 weeks.
I tried to use google sitemaps..... but.... for that i needed a sitemap generated.. so i used a free service... it only generates 27 urls... when there are TONS! i dunno why i dunno if googlebot can access pages or not... a the forum.. i disallowed guests to enter a board.. guests cant view topics
It sounds like you need to allow guests to view topics or at least figure out a hack to allow spiders to view them. Your sitemap tool probably had the same problem that google had.
NOPE I just went to a sitemap generator.. and it generated 500+ pages... that means spiders can go in.. and i even see spiders reading topics... but doesnt index.. i added my sitemap.xml to google sitemaps! lets see if i get any results
