It looks like Googlebot has timed out, at least once, for one of our URLs. Why is Googlebot timing out? My server is located at Amazon WS, in North Carolina and it is a small instance. Could Google be querying multiple URLs at the same time and jamming my servers? Could it be becauseThanks for your help!

okay I was able to pull your site code so you know it works on the newest version of Web Kit which is based on Safari only for me.
You have some large coding issues that are most likely preventing you from being indexed properly.
Your page structure is not allowing Google to read anything. Google can only read 16 words from your home page this is making Google bot think there is nothing there and is not a useful webpage. You also still have an issue with the forwarding to a
#welcome
the two links below will show you what Google bot is able to see when indexing your website.
http://www.feedthebot.com/tools/spider/test.php
http://totheweb.com/tools/spider-test/index.php
this shows the problem get your header and your structure theirs a lot of junk and no real words for anyone to read.
you can also use

to check your site through Moz another superb tool to use is screaming frog

the reason I believe this is happening is you are using Ajax preventing Google from reading your site correctly. Here is a link talking about how you can fix this. The reason I believe this is because of the hash tag
"AJAX URLs, that is, URLs containing a hash fragment, for example www.example.com/index.html#key=value, where #key=value is the hash fragment."

you may want to consider using a boilerplate I would build the site out of wordpress as its architecture is superb and you would not have these issues.

Your website is currently not showing up properly in my browser. I have used chrome, Safari and Firefox.
Currently your site shows 14 indexed pages in Google
site:www.memovalley.com
can you tell me when website was created?
Was there a recent change because for some reason your website is redirecting to
did you add a tracking system that is adding this to your links?
site:www.memovalley.com/#!welcome
the other odd thing is your blog http://blog.memovalley.com/ showing a favicon for Wordpress.com meaning it is hosted there on WordPress.com not with a true separate hosting companies like you said you were using Amazon
I have to be able to see your site code in order to tell you why Google bot is timing out on me run some quick tests with other tools and I will post very quickly

Google Indexing - what did I missed??
Hello, all SEOers~ I just renewed my web site about 3 weeks ago, and in order to preserve SEO values as much as possible, I did 301 redirect, XML Sitemap and so on for minimize the possible data losses. But the problem is that about week later from site renewal, my team some how made mistake and removed all 301 redirects. So now my old site URLs are all gone from Google Indexing and my new site is not getting any index from Google. My traffic and rankings are also gone....OMG I checked Google Webmaster Tool, but it didn't say any special message other than Google bot founds increase of 404 error which is obvious. Also I used "fetch as google bot" from webmaster tool to increase chance to index but it seems like not working much. I am re-doing 301 redirect within today, but I am not sure it means anything anymore. Any advise or opinion?? Thanks in advance~!

Duplicate Content Problem!
Hi folks, I have a quite awkward problem. Since a few weeks a get a huge amount of "duplicate content errors" in my MOZ crawl reports. After a while of looking for the error I thought of the domains I've bought additionally. So I went to Google and typed in site:myotherdomains.com The results was as I expected that my original website got indexed with my new domains aswell. That means: For example my original website was index with www.domain.com/aboutus - Then I bought some additional domains which are pointing on my / folder. What happened is that I also get listed with: www.mynewdomains.com/com How can I fix that? I tried a normal domain redirect but it seems as this doesn't help as when I am visiting www.mynewdomains.com the domain doesnt change in my browser to www.myoriginaldomain.com but stays with it ... I was busy the whole day to find a solution but I am kinda desperate now. If somebody could give me advice it would be much appreciated. Mike

Struggling to get indexed and ranked
I am working on a brand new website and really struggling to get the site indexed and listed for it's business name! I don't normally struggle and have got clients ranked for much more challenging keywords so I'm a bit stuck! The site is a new domain and has been live for about two months. The business previously used an old domain and this has been correctly 301'd to the new domain. There is no duplicate content with any other website when checked through Copyscape.com Webmaster Tools has been set-up and verified and this shows the site is being crawled but in Google site:www.website.com.au shows no pages as being indexed. Google Places has been set-up and verified, the site has also been added to local citation sites. There are also a few incoming links from other sources. Robots.txt is fine and has been checked. Business name mentioned in the title tag, footer and throughout the site. Does anyone have any ideas how I might be able to get ranked or is it just a waiting game? Or have I missed out something really obvious?? My last step is doing a crawl test to see if this brings up anything I have missed. Thanks Karen
