PR that determines if pages are indexed?

    Hi,
    What determines if pages are indexed or not in Google? Right now only my main page is indexed? Do I have to increase incoming links in order for them to crawl more of my site?

    Thanks!

    Try using and submitting a Google sitemap.

    http://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps

    There are many online generators that can create one for you. Just Google them.... :)

    Also, make sure your 'robots.txt' isn't denying access to pages you want spidered.

    I have a sitemap in already, and my robots.txt file is allowing all. My pagerank is zero though, is that maybe what is causing it?

    You have an XML sitemap in your root folder? Good.

    No, I got spidered like crazy when my PR was 0. I just kept link building, and they came.
