I have a site that google not indexed, even the domain (Created On:01-Jan-2007). Why? I am not submit google sitemap in google for that reason? Or the site (of my client) is full of duplicate content? Pl advice what I have to do….
It takes time to get indexed. Just wait it out. If you can make a site map make one. It will only help you. Some people who have domains over 5 months and over still ahve problems getting indexed.
Actually sitemap is useless if you have backlinks to every page of your website. Sitemap is used to instruct googlebot to crawl your home and internal pages. If you have inbound links, google will follow that links also to crawl and index your page.
thanks all for your comments, i am going to create a google sitemap. url is > http://www.ibradindia.org/
One of my domain name which was registered back in Jan 2004 just got in the index before 4 days. Your situation is far better then me.
Sitemaps is not part of the ranking algorithm. It is simply used by google to help find all pages on your site that you wish to have included in the google index.
Woah, that can't be right...! What do you think was the problem? Lack of links? Lack of new content? Bad luck?! I have some sites that are seriously sandboxed, but I am guessing it is just because of high keyword competition and generally small number of inbound links - I can't believe a reasonably SEO'd site would take 3 years to get indexed...!
