Google's not indexing some directories?

    I'm using WordPress.

    I have 3 directories outside of my wp-content directory and it appears that Google can’t index them?

    The directories include:
    http://www.search-this.com/search-engine-decoder/
    http://www.search-this.com/pagerank-decoder/
    http://www.search-this.com/tools/

    This is my robots.txt file:
    User-agent: *
    Disallow: /cgi-bin/
    Disallow: /logs/
    Disallow: /wp-admin/
    Disallow: /wp-includes/

    What’s up? How come Google can’t index what’s outside of wp-content ?

    I'll give 10 bucks to anyone who can figure out why these pages are not being indexed. Cause, I don't have a clue.

    thanks, Mark

    I believe search engines become very cautious when they bump into words like "directory" or "search" ... that's why I would never get a domain name with the word "search" inside ( I already got one and nothing would get indexed ).

    eldel - don't take this personally, but that is the dumbest thing I have heard in a long time.

    Google has indexed all my other pages, save these three. What do the three have in common? They are all outside of the wp-content directory...
