I’ve recently got the main idea, how Google decides whether to come on your website or not. The most ridiculous is that it’s all said by Google. Somewhy we ignore what Google offer us to learn about indexing. But still.. this is all so true.
I won’t write a book about this. I’ll just show those things, that really matter, when it comes to indexing your web pages by Google.
Why Google stopped indexing my website?
- You’ve deleted lots of URLs from your website;
- You spam. That’s not good;
- You’ve used duplicated pages;
- Your robots.txt file blocks too many pages. Google bot doesn’t like you;
- Your updates are rare. Maybe you should make them a little bit more often?
- You have too small total number of pages. Less than 50-100 pages, right?
- You have an ugly code;
- You don’t have any external link, or there are only some of them;
- You overuse the “noindex” tag;
The above events are the most common ones. How you should fix them? First of all, read the above events once again and do exactly the opposite. That’s really it.
How long you should wait until Google again indexes you?
- Don’t wait, he will;
- Focus on publishing;
- Focus on your external links;
The most important thing, that I’ve got is that all the mistakes, that you make in the beginning do not mean anything, when you have tons of good and quality content/pages.
2 little advices
- Do not write too quality content in the beginning. But write a lot. When you have several hundreds of pages, Google bot indexes you a lot more often. When he does, you shouldn’t be afraid, that someone would steal your content before it’s indexed.
- Trust Google, not Blogs.







This indexing issue with google is a serious headache for me and for many webmasters. I have a site that 5000 pages index by bing and only 2000 index by google.
It is quit frustrating because that is leaving money on the table: the more pages index, the more traffic, thus the more sales. With Google owning more than 60 percent of internet search traffic a lost of index pages can be damping on business.
I recently (a week ago, or so) bought an index checker for $7 which was moderately effective given the price. It should me all the urls that was not index.
I took these urls and added them to a table on my mysql / php table and build an output of articles with RAND() order and link these urls on high pr pages of the site.
I am waiting to see if there will be any changes
ppo´s last awesome post ..PPO Insurance and Plans and deductibles
ppo,
With 5000 pages your problem could be too little amount of unique content per page.
A lot of great information here. Thank you. Appreciated your explanation on Alexa.
