Thread: Please help, problem indexing

Hi
my sites
My Web Presence Point - How to create your online presence? and Best Free Arcade Games at Ultimate Arcades are not getting indexed on google

they are well indexed in yahoo.

Also, sometimes it takes long to get indexed on yahoo - why so?

do reply plz

I'd try removing your robots.txt files. This first one looks kind of odd:

http://www.ultimatearcades.net/robots.txt:

Code:

User-agent: *
Disallow:

Sitemap: http://www.ultimatearcades.net/sitemap.xml.gz

This one looks right, but it's unnecessary so I would remove it just to be sure:

http://www.mywebpp.com/robots.txt

Code:

User-agent: *
Allow: /

What does Google Webmaster Tools tell you about these sites?

both robots are valid... all my sites have same structure "disallow : "
infact they are default wordpress robot files created...

google webmaster says indexed in the sitemap section... and 8 urls not found not including index(they are not there actually)

You may need more inbound links. mywebbpp only has about 10 domains linking to it and all of them appear to be blogs.

that should not have indexing problem..

It happens to some sites that don't establish enough backlinks.

Another possibility is that your content or site was copied onto another site?

I should think that one backlink would be sufficient. However, if the page that links to the new site doesn't get crawled very often, then the new site will be slow in getting indexed. All I do to get my new sites indexed is submit the URLs to Google, and most of the time, it's before I've even gotten any inbound links. After submitting the URL, it has taken anywhere from about 24 hours to a week for the sites to get indexed.

Code:

http://www.google.com/addurl/

MeetHere, another thing you could try for quick indexing is to post an ad on craigslist with a link to your site. (Make sure the ad is relevant and in the proper section. Otherwise, it will get flagged.)

what I mean is site has sufficient backlinks to get indexed..

http://www.google.com/addurl/I will try that..
thanks for the tips
keep coming plz

The sites both have PR so the sites are getting crawled.

The issue is duplicate content. I did some cut and paste into Google and most of the content isn't unique.

I am surprised the PR remained in this update...
not all duplicate content... only one or two posts.
