how long to be indexed by Google and Co ?

Post by goldbug »

Hi,

not much content at this moment at
http://www.incorporel.com/forex but I am more preoccupied by being indexed properly. No robots going on my site for weeks ( even months) though I have added it on some directories.

A few years ago , I used to build websites writing manually html and being indexed in less than a month's time .
I guess now you have to pay for everything....

Congrats for phpwcms ! really fun and easy to use !

yep ! I even tought of using their adwords thing ( paid advertisement system based on keywords ) to start some movement.
But since I am not selling anything , it's not worth the pain.
I 'll just sit and wait robot's visits.
By the way, I tried to visit your site but the homepage took ages to download. I am on adsl.

regards,

It takes 2-4 days then you are listed in Google and MSN.
All you need are links which pointed to your site. No links -> no listing.

You DON´T need to submit your site to searchengines. They have spider for that. Also forget adwords, if you have nothing to sell.

There you go, Google has got you:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=in ... arch&meta=

But this seems to be the only thing that google knows about you. Hmmmm, I would also suggest that you list in as many directories as possible. And, could you not move you site to the root directory?

So this is to keep you busy:

how to move whole site to root ?

Post by goldbug »

Hi,

following Spirelli 's advice, I have tried to move the whole site to the root.
But then the site is "empty", it seems all the internal links within the site are not functionning.
Is there a way to move all content within the "forex" directory to the root without havaing this problem ?

thanks.
