What is "Some of your pages are partially indexed."?

    Hello all,

    The recent sitemap upgrade has given me a small clue as to why I'm still in the sandbox almost a year now.

    I checked the new sitemap page and saw this:

    Indexing summary:

    Pages from your site are included in Google's index. [?]
    Index stats

    Googlebot last successfully accessed your home page on Apr 20 .

    Potential indexing problems:

    Some of your pages are partially indexed.

    --->8---

    Ok, so now I'm thinking "Alright now I have something to fix". I went to Google and did a site:http://www.picturepuppy.com/ 4 pages show in the index. I then did a site:http://picturepuppy.com/ and 16 pages show indexed.

    My .htaccess has ALWAYS looked like this so I didn't get this problem:

    RewriteEngine On
    Options +FollowSymLinks
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^picturepuppy.com [NC]
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.picturepuppy.com/$1 [L,R=301]

    Using DP's wonderful keyword checker I see Yahoo has 101 "pages in URL".

    So, what could I have done wrong to cause this issue...or is it two issues?

    Who can I contact to correct this at Google?

    Thanks for your time

    Hi thanks for the reply,

    I saw that page, but it sure doesn't make any sense to me. It's not like my site is a growing site where pages need to be indexed as they are added..... I don't and haven't added anything in 7-8 months.

    Anyways, thanks
