amansingh1985 04-04-2007, 11:04 PM Hello friends,
I recently upadated my website with some new meta tags and some new pages and links. created a site, submitted to google. But now I got disappeared from google. I was before updating in first 10 results. But now its not like that. I am getting the vbulletin faq links rather with the same keywords I am having on my website pages.
Anyhelp??
Joeychgo 04-04-2007, 11:35 PM Wait - what do you mean your gettin gthe vbfaq links???
Dave A 04-05-2007, 12:57 AM I think the keywords set in the AdminCP would be used as the keyword METAs for pages like your site's FAQ pages (the Vb ones from the navbar)..... Never checked, really. My robots.txt excludes them anyway.
But opinion has it that Google doesn't pay much attention to those keyword METAs anyway.
Maybe post a SERPs result so we can see what you're getting at exactly.
amansingh1985 04-05-2007, 06:59 AM Actually Joe, I ahd posted several problems related to my website on VB FAQ. Thats why rather getting my own pages in search results, I am getting the vvb faq results.
Dave, when one was searching for like "motorbike stunt club.." (meta tags on pages) on google.com, I was getting my website on the very first page of google. But after making changes, it is not coming up there. But when now I'm searching for the same keywords, I am not able to see my website listed there. But whne I search for the domain (excluding the .com) it comes up and shows the same meta tags as coded.
Joeychgo 04-05-2007, 10:54 AM Show me what your talking about - because I still dont understand. Give me a link or a screenshot or something.
Caddyman 04-05-2007, 11:07 AM he searches for www.asdfjkhasdf.com or w/e in google, and rather than seeing his site, he sees a linkto his site, posted on vbfaq's page. Since vb-faq has alot higher search ranking
if i type "talk delaware" into google
my first result is my site, the second is from a link for TD on a vb-faq page.........but idk maybe my rank is better than his
am i being confusing, i think i understand what hes saying, but im making it worse....lol
amansingh1985 04-05-2007, 11:31 AM u are right Sir !! I am trying to search for the keywords which were working before the update. But now they arent
Joeychgo 04-05-2007, 12:20 PM Ahhhhh -- ok -- Like what keywords?
You have to understand - vBFAQ is a pretty strong site as far as Google is concerned. We easily rank high for all kinds of things Google finds.
Dave A 04-05-2007, 01:28 PM Hold on a moment. Aman, you're on Google webmaster tools (we were talking registering sitemaps before). Surely there are some clues as to what is going on in the stats there.
amansingh1985 04-06-2007, 07:54 AM I submitted the site map, was getting listing on google, but on re-submitting (as we discussed Dave before) and then got disappered. Stats says that info is not available at the moment.
Joe, I was getting listed as the first search result some days ago, vbfaq was also in the que but after mine & Thats true!!
But it says somewhere that google bot last crawled your site on 22 feb.
Dave A 04-06-2007, 08:06 AM Google's updating your info. It can be quite irritating. Check every 12 hours or so to see when it comes back. It's taken up to three days for me before.
My only concern now is that you've had no robots through since 22nd Feb? Or is that just the homepage (it happens).
Also, when last did Google download the sitemap?
Joeychgo 04-06-2007, 08:56 AM Google makes updates all the time, and changes the search algo on a whim. SO what your describing is totally normal. Irritating, but normal.
amansingh1985 04-06-2007, 09:45 AM ok it says in statistics
Crawl stats [?]
These statistics provide distribution information for pages we have crawled for our google.com index. The PageRank distribution reflects all crawled pages in your site, not just the home page.
Your pages in Google
Data is not available at this time. Please check back later for statistics about your site.
in sitemap last downloaded
stunt_google.xml Sitemap Web Apr 3, 2007 Apr 3, 2007 OK 30
and in Diagnostic summary
it says
Home page crawl: Googlebot last successfully accessed your home page on Feb 22, 2007.
Index status: Pages from your site are included in Google's index. See Index stats. [?]
Dave A 04-06-2007, 11:45 AM If your pages are not changing every day, there is no need to panic.
In a busy forum environment, I'd be hoping that at least the sitemap would be downloaded more often. For example, Google collects mine every 24 hours.
Looks like you are just going to have to wait it out.
amansingh1985 04-06-2007, 12:38 PM mmmm ok but I am talking abt the website noe forums.
Dave A 04-06-2007, 12:45 PM Google figures out how often it should visit after a while. The main factor is how often pages are added or changed. There are ways to "tell" Google how often to visit, but Google seems to pretty well takes its own advice in that regard.
For a static content site, once a week would not be out of order. Could even drop to once a month.
Your Google SERPs and indexing issue is different, though. Something that happens at the early stages of setting up with Google Webmaster Tools. My experience is it settles down after a while.
