My site was launched 4 months ago and has over 3000 pages if good content.
We have set different meta tags for each page and unique text, although
similar products appear on the same pages together with their descriptions.

Google has indexed 2 pages, MSN 85 and Yahoo 1185. What I do not understand
is how I am supposed to know if I am in the sandbox or if Google is
objecting the format or content of my site either way having only 2 pages
indexed is a disaster. I have a PR0 of zero and I know it takes time for
that to change but how can I fix the site. I have a backlink from a PR5 and
some PR4's but not a huge number. Some backlinks are not yet showing which
probably means that those site need to be spidered. I also have up-to-date
sitemaps.

What if anything can I do. I have asked everyone I know for a backlink and
added my site to as many directories as possible.

What if anything can I do other than "Keep building backlinks"?

What you think those validation errors are why all the pages are not getting
indexed? LOL. Probably not the problem, in fact I would say it isn't the
problem. A site requires links to it to show it's worthiness. It takes time
to get stable ranking.

The site has only been up for 4 months. Really still quite new to get all
the pages indexed without good incoming links. Especially since it is also a
highly competitive field, even if all the pages were indexed they probably
would not rank well.

Well, if we are talking about www.lampspecs.co.uk then YOU really blew
anchoring your home page!!!!

3,000 pages and they all point to
http://www.lampspecs.co.uk/Light-Bulbs-Tubes, which of course is NOT
your home page. While your site map says Light Bulbs & Tubes points to
http://www.lampspecs.co.uk/ which happens to be the correct home page.

All you have to do, is change all your Light Bulbs & Tubes hyperlinks
to point to your correct home page of
http://www.lampspecs.co.uk/ and your Google Page rank should go right
up due to 3,000 internal links to your home page which are also well
anchored.

You have simply shot yourself in the foot, the way your web pages
currently link to the WRONG hyperlink!!!!

Should be a simple fix with any search and replace utility.

Dear John,

Thanks for your input I thought something was not as it should be but
couldn't put my finger on what it was. I am not sure where you are talking
about "Anchor text" are you talking about the left hand tab which is called
"Light Bulbs & Tubes"? If you are then I have a problem as the whole system
is template based and I cannot point a tab to route. What I can do is point
it to http://www.lampspecs.co.uk/ will that do the trick?

Paul.

Well actually, I do believe that BB developed the concept of anchoring
your home page?

Instead of calling your home page, Home, you are referring to it as
'Light Bulbs & Tubes' which are your keywords. While your site is
somewhat confusing since it does NOT use the word Home, the hyperlink
is in the correct position on the header of each web page. So, users
should be able to deal with it. And, the search engines will give your
home page a better position since you are referring to your home page
with the important keywords for your site.

Care to add anything, BB?

I was afraid of that. Forget, what I wrote before.

All you need to do is change your 'Light Bulbs & Tubes' hyperlink at
the top of each page so that it links to http://www.lampspecs.co.uk/,
your home page.

Everything else fine as it is to me.

Oh no, it seems that the tab name is dynamically set. I can rename it by
providing the bit after www.lampspecs.co.uk but it won't accept the / as a
name it substitutes /- if I leave it blank it sets it to /sc.2/.f

Is this really the problem or is it just a red herring?

http://www.lampspecs.co.uk
would be just as good.

I will ask you a simple question. Clicking on your Light Bulbs & Tubes
Tab takes you where? Is it not:
http://www.lampspecs.co.uk/Light-Bulbs-Tubes ? That is NOT your home
page. So, you have 3,000 pages that link to
http://www.lampspecs.co.uk/Light-Bulbs-Tubes
In short, what connection do any of these 3,000 pages have to your home
page? None, as far as I can see.

Quoting from my original reply ...

3,000 pages and they all point to
http://www.lampspecs.co.uk/Light-Bulbs-Tubes, which of course is NOT
your home page. While your site map says Light Bulbs & Tubes points to
http://www.lampspecs.co.uk/ which happens to be the correct home page.

All you have to do, is change all your Light Bulbs & Tubes hyperlinks
to point to your correct home page of
http://www.lampspecs.co.uk/ and your Google Page rank should go right
up due to 3,000 internal links to your home page.

Thank you very much for your . Our home page is
http://www.lampspecs.co.uk but for some reason
http://www.lampspecs.co.uk/Light-Bulbs-Tubes seems to be either an alias or
duplicate content I am not sure as the site is built dynamically. Clearly
Google objects to this situation.

The problem is that it seems to be a bug in the system I have purchased as I
cannot change this behaviour I have to get the provider to change the cause
of this.

If and when it is fixed will I have to do a re-inclusion request to Google?

I wouldn't bother re-submitting your site to Google until the problem
has been fixed. Once the problem is fixed, YES, resubmit your site.

How did you find about that? Specially the googlebot's tracking habit
as it crawls. Did you request feedfetcher?

John thanks for your but I want to make sure I have this correct.

My home page is http://www.lampspecs.co.uk

The page is duplicated on http://www.lampspecs.co.uk/Light-Bulbs-Tubes

I do not know how to tell if this is a duplicated page or two URL's pointing
to the same content.

Now there is a back link from all pages back to the home page and you can
see it easily by mousing over the "Lamp Specs" logo, but there is no Anchor
text associated with it.

So my question is does you original statement that 3000 pages do not link
back to you home page still stand?

It is obvious that Google does not like my site and won't index its content.
As far as I can see it is not clear why, there are a number of suspects:

1. The lack of anchor text back to the home page, but there is a link (The
logo).

2. Duplicated page or two URLs pointing to the same page (I am not sure
which)

3. When I use analysis tools some links show with session id's, but using a
browser does not show them, I am not sure if Google sees them and objects.

4. The site has a lot of part numbers and description for similar products,
does Google see this a spamming and excludes the site accordingly.

5. The site is not W3c compliant, but that does not stop other site being
indexed.

You asked a simply question. And, I pointed out what I saw right off.
Changing your source codes goes way beyond the scope of these forums.
I suggest that YOU take it up with whoever wrote your code.

Unless the rules have changed, Google and all other search engines
ignore graphic hyperlinks.

The home page has 287 validation errors.

http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=ht...ss=1&verbose=1

That is more than a few errors.

Your code is one big complicated mess of style sheets and perhaps
frames. It is beyond my know how.

If Google wont take the design, seems like a clear breach of contract
to me. The longer you wait the less likely you are to recover damages
in civil court. Demand that the developer get your site into Google,
fix the code, or give you your money back for failing to perform.

My advice is the same as before, the code needs to be changed.

Another possiblity is to do a simple web page redirect of
http://www.lampspecs.co.uk/Light-Bulbs-Tubes
to your home page. Google might accept that.

???!!?? What he should do is put a key phrase into the alt text of the
logo graphic. He should also learn who the regulars are here and why
they're accepted as such.

It's quite possible, without going to the trouble of looking, that
engines can't get beyond your home page because of coding errors
stopping the spiders from navigating.

Also, I do believe BB just volunteered to re-write his code for FREE.

Be my guest, BB. Now, put up. Or, shut up.
