GOOGLE ISSUES – not indexed but WHY

  • Hi

    I have set up a currency exchange advice site https://www.currencyexchange-advice.com and getting a bit worried that i am still not in Google after 6 weeks.

    I have submitted my site to Google,
    I have a few back links to my site
    i am getting around 15 unique visitors a day from my back links
    people are digging my blogs on a daily basis
    in Google analytics it says that my site has been indexed
    and every day i see that a Google bot has visited my site

    But when i try the url into google i only see the link to my site from other sites.

    Any ideas about what i can do?

  • Are your blog posts and content original or feeds from other sites? Google gives much more weight to original content. Did you also do a Google Sitemap?

    hi songdottech,

    the information on the site is my own.

    and have done a sitemap

    any other ideas?

    Try going to your sitemap account and increasing Google’s crawler setting.

    But I think you’re up against the problem that the subject of your blog is already extensivley covered by lots of other sites, and maybe Google is not ranking you very highly just yet.

    Here are some tips to get your site into Google

    1. Change your permalinks to include the name of the post
    2. Your keywords, though not really important to Google anymore, are overdone.
    3. You’re Metatag is using NOINDEX read here for why if you want your site indexed you should NOINDEX only on folders you do not want search engines to index.
    4. Your 404 page goes to HOSTGATOR. You should have your own 404.

    Hope this helps

    I missed that; your meta does read “noindex, no follow,” so reset that in your Settings/Privacy. That’s critical.

    Hi thanks for all your info,

    i have done all i can but i am unsure of how to change the permalink of my posts, as when i change one post permalink it changes all of my posts

    for example when i do a update for the 12th of october to Currency update the 12 of octber it changes the previous post (9th october) to say the 12th.

    thanks again

    alex

    Are you talking about the actual permalink of the post – which you edit right above the text window of the post – or simply the publication date of the post, which you edit to the right of the post editor window?
