Website being crawled but not indexed any thoughts?
-
Hi Everyone,
I created a new website a few weeks ago www.drivingseaford.co.uk , did a little link citation, links from Google+, submitted to webmaster tools etc but its still not getting indexed.Webmaster tools crawl stats page is showing pages being crawled, no errors. But 0 indexed.
http://www.drivingseaford.co.uk/robots.txt is showing
User-agent: * Disallow: /wp-admin/ Disallow: /wp-includes/
Im a bit stumped as never had this before!!! Any ideas from you lovely people??

Your absolutely right Chris, I was in the process of rewriting all the content and going to be getting the blog going. Also now looking at quality links etc. Google places done, so was trying to get some local citations.

Thanks for that. Much appreciated.

Good catch! I noticed that as well, but had never seen content="none" and didn't look into it any further. However, Anthony, you are going down the wrong path as far as your content and you're going to have to spruce that up for your sites or you're setting yourself up for panda problems.

Hi Antony,
Saw that you had
<meta name="<a class="attribute-value">robots</a>" content="<a class="attribute-value">none</a>" />
on your website, and as it's said here http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.fr/2007/03/using-robots-meta-tag.html, that means NOINDEX,NOFOLLOW
So just erase those lines and you should be good !

Paginated pages are being indexed?
I have lots of paginated pages which are being indexed. Should I add the noindex tag to page 2 onwards? The pages currently have previous and next tags in place. Page one also has a self-referencing canonical.

Single URL not indexed
Hi everyone! Some days ago, I noticed that one of our URLs (http://www.access.de/karriereplanung/webinare) is no longer in the Google index. We never had any form of penalty, link warning etc. Our traffic by Google is constantly growing every month. This single page does not have an external link pointing to it - only internal links. The page has been indexed all the time. The HTTP status code is 200, there is no noindex or something in the code. I submitted the URL on GWMT to let Google send it to the index. It was crawled successfully by Google, sent to the index 5 days ago - nothing happened, still not indexed. Do you have any suggestions why this page is no longer indexed? It is well linked internally and one click away from the home page. There is still the PR of 5 showing, I always thought that pages with PR are indexed.......

I will keep the same domaine name, but all the URL will be customize on the new platform for better SEO. Also, is there a way or tool to create CSV file from those page index. Can Webmaster tool help? You can read my question about this subject here, http://www.seomoz.org/q/impacts-on-moving-online-store-to-new-platform Thank you, BigBlaze

Mobile Google Not Indexing Mobile Website
Google currently does not index our mobile website. It has the WWW website in it's index. When a user from a mobile phone clicks on a mobile search result for WWW we redirect them to our mobile website. This is posing problems for us as our mobile website is a fraction of the # of pages/sections as our WWW. So for example, mobile search results show that we have a "careers" section; but that's not the case for the mobile website. As a result a user gets a 404. How do we force mobile Google to index our mobile website instead of our WWW?

Google Website Optimizer
So if you are AB testing two pages: index.html and indexB.html Shouldn't I nofollow indexB.html? It has all the same content, just a different design.
