Title: Good news!
Post by: lfmusiclover on June 26, 2007, 01:39:54 PM
The Google Bot has already crawled the site for the first time. The crawl occured on Saturday. It shows that the bot was unable to find the forum, but that's because it was not here at the time. It should be able to find it on the next crawl. Also, the site is now in the Google index, which means that hopefully traffic will increase a bit. Now we just need to get soe bots from some of the other search engines in here!  8)

When I type keywords like "TWCToday" or "TWC Today" I get your old proboards website and a weird index of your current website.  Oh well :wacko:

At the bottom of the page you should see a statement that says Click Here T Search Again With Ommitted Results Included (or something to that effect). Click that and theen you'll see more pages from this site. What happens is when you search fora site, Google shows the index page  (whats with the index page that it shows for this site is beyond me) and omits the other pages of the site. If you click search again with omitted results, it'll show you all the pages of the site.

Its there for me. Do a search for twctodayforums.com. There should only be about 5 results, and then you'll see where it says to click here to search again with the omitted results included.

Hi

Gil, please don't just say Hi. I've noticed you do this several times, and it really annoys me to go into a thread to just see Hi (as I'm sure it does everyone else as well).

Yea, but for someone who doesn't know what twctodayforums.com is, but rather is searching for something general TWC or whatever, that method doesn't work that much.

I'm sure Google will index the website in more detail as time moves on. :)

Your right. You have to realize that Google has only crawled the site one time so far, so of course it didn't get everything. But as you said, they crawl it from time to time and more andmore of our pages will end up in their index.
