Only two pages in my combination web/article directory are indexed in Google and it is driving me crazy. It's been about two weeks and I've uploaded a sitemap and it doesn't seem to change. Maybe I'm being impatient. I'm thinking about chaning the article URLs from http://directory.proud-collector.com/article.aspx?ArticleID=100 to http://directory.proud-collector.com/a000100/article.aspx Would this improve chances of indexing?
I changed the pages to appear static, so we will see what happens. (Too bad there isn't a smily face for crossing your fingers)
It also wil help if your carete some solid back links to the subdomain http://directory.proud-collector.com/
telll me about it!!! its been 14 days since i launched my site and I'm still not indexed!! im checking google everyday...driving me crazy alrite..
yes building backlinks will definitely help and try to get a link from high PR site to ur site also u can use mod_rewrite function in php to display the urls for ur articles pages in a meaning ful way instead
Could you expand on that? Maybe an example? I'm going to re-distribute articles that authors submit to my site (with permission) and add my link.
you will be indexed faster depending on how many links point back to you. the search engine sees it as your site being popular therefore a bigger priority to be indexed.
For web pages that you are specially interested in getting listed, you are recommended to create HTML pages as other friends have mentioned, also create some links to those pages from your already indexed pages.
Even after submitting to various directories and manually adding the url in search engines, my website is not getting indexed. what's d reason
