Anyone know how long it takes Google to Index new site?
-
Could anyone let me know how long it takes for a NEW site to be indexed in Google please? Am having some robots.txt issues and am keen to see if it got indexed. Thanks!

Thanks Aran - very creative

Heres another, I'm pretty sure i heard of a company in the UK (might have been US) that recycles shipping containers and uses them as pre-fabricated building blocks.
ooo...I found something similar on wiki..

Keri,
Love it, I can see you are really getting into this container thing! Seriously, some really good ideas there..I actually cam across a guy on youtube who had made an underground bunker out of a used shipping container and got 1.3 million views and a ton of media coverage!
Good luck with the move!

Sofia,
What about some content related to unusual uses for cargo containers?
Another idea might be using a cargo container for a personal/business move. If you were in the US, we'd be wanting to talk to you right now! My husband and I are moving from California to Seattle, and he's interested in seeing if we can get a used cargo container, load our stuff into it, then have it dropped off in a driveway or a side yard of a place in Seattle. Some content around that would be interesting, and with how it differs from a regular move (such as needing to worry about the container being titled to put it on the truck), etc.

Hi Aran, it's certainly on the list.
Great to see you are making progress with the hangers, I have the same kind of challenges with containers
-
Have you done any social sharing of the website?
Getting your followers to RT links and the like is another great way to get noticed.

Thanks!
the domain is http://containerforsale.co.uk ,My host told me to look in the Public HTML file folder for the robots.txt file and just delete it but can't see it in there?
Google webmaster tools is saying there the sitemap contains urls which are blocked by robots.txt. (all 7 of them)
This is the display I get from http://containerforsale.co.uk/robots.txt
User-agent *
Disallow: /wp-admin/
Disallow: /wp-includes/ -
We can have a look together. But I need to see the robots.txt in order to have the chance to resolve the problem.

Hi istvan,
Thanks, I submitted the sitemap but got some robot.txt warnings so not sure if it is going to go through ok. I have already removed the robots.txt file so wondering is Google is just slow in picking that up. Guess I will know for sure when/if the site gets indexed.

Hi Sofia,
It depends on a lot of things. I have seen new websites being indexed in 24 hours, but I have seen others which needed almost a week.
If you have Google Webmaster tools, submit your sitemap, Fetch as Googlebot (basically submit to index ). Those steps can speed up things a littlebit.
I hope that helped,
Istvan

Url too long
Hi we have a wordpress website for Office Furniture Our domain name does not have office furniture in it. So we went from having domain.com/shop/category/second-sub-cat to domain.com/office-furniture/category/second-category However we now have 509 products flagged with too long urls I am wondering whether we should change back : For example domain.com/office-furniture/office-corner-desks/beech-corner-desks Should I go back to domain.com/shop/office-corner-desks/beech-corner-desks Or am I going to confuse matters even more? I should say this only affects categories as the products themselves are /shop/product I am just concerned that changing the re-direct in place originally will just make matters worse and confuse things - would I get more value changing back? Or should I stick with it and just try to shorten urls individually by product titles etc

Unsure about improvement of inner sites
Hi ! I want to improve the ranking of Home on my site. Now I did some on-page SEO on Home itself for the keyword "Webdesign Freiburg". How much does it make sense to put this keyword also into inner sites - although I primarily want to rank Home for this keyword? Does Home profit from putting the keyword into subpages? Cheers and thanks Marc

Only homepage in Google
Hello SEOmozzers, A colleague of mine started up a site here: www.wikiboedel.nl. Sadly only the homepage is indexed in Google. It's a wordpress install. Robots.txt seems fine, all pages are on index and follow. Can't see why only the home is indexed in Google. Do you know whats going wrong? Please tell me. Tank you.

How is my on-site SEO looking like?
I know this is a broad question. My site's content has been written more than one year ago and haven't been changed so far. Our main goal is to make the application hosted in the site work better every day, so we don't worry much about writing content. The URL is http://www.onlinelogomaker.com

No index parts of a page?
Little bit of an odd question this, but how would one go about getting Google to not index certain content on a page? I'm developing an online store for a client and for a few of the products they will be stocking they will be using the manufacturers specs and descriptions. These descriptions and specs, therefore, will not be unique as they will be also used by a number of other websites. The title tag, onpage h1 etc will be fine for the seo of the actual pages (with backlinks, of course) so the impact of google not counting the description should be slight. I'm sure this can be done but for the life of me I cannot remember how. Thanks Carl

I think I`ve caught some kind of google filter on my site.
What if the PA and the DA on my domain and the entire site is 1. Most of the pages on the site were empty or not unique. Now I`m adding new pages with unique content. I have only one position in the top 10. The remaining 15 positions are above the top. What should I do to increase my PA & DA and to have top 10 positions by other keywords?
