Web Site Checklist - Getting Indexed by Search Engines
Michael Nguyen from Social Patterns covers key points prior to getting your web site indexed by the major search engines.
"So let’s spend a little time discussing the most basic idea behind search engine optimization: Indexing. Before you can begin to think about optimizing a page’s title tags, content, links - one thing needs to be certain, that page needs to be indexable."
Many factors hold back web pages from being indexed properly.
- Perhaps there is an error in your robots.txt?
- Maybe your web server is blocking directory contents?
- Is there JavaScript or broken code within your page?
- Are there any incoming text links to the page?
- Are there any automatic redirects from the page?
- Is your site using frames or only flash?
- Is your entire site navigation in JavaScript? A dropdown?
- Are your meta tags telling robots to not index?
- Is your site full of duplicate content, invisible content, or hidden links?
- Did you buy a banned domain?
