Care to post the URL so we can take a look, dont just post it as a direct link would advise non clickable format as I am not sure what the admin/mods would make of posting a link on the forums..must re read the rules

Suggest : www[.]domain[.]com etc taht way we can look but you will not be spamming..

it's << url snipped >>

Although it's finally showing up when I search from home!
I searched when I went to Melbourne on the weekend (2 hours away from home) and it wasnt there.... but at least it is showing up now...
WOOT WOOT WOOT
only took 12 weeks :eek:

Yay my site got crawled. I am on page 6-13 for all the keywords i am targeting, I got some work to do. I guess it's time to start getting some back links and do a little more optimization. Thanks for the replies!

I've had decent success to get Google to list my new website, but ofcourse Yaghoo and MSN are giving me better ratings atm. I hear Google ratings improve with time.

Google and the other search engines know that site development in most cases takes place outside of the World Wide Web, which means that big authentic sites get launched every day. So there isn't any risk associated with launching a big site as soon as possible and all at once.

yeahh Google is giving me a hard time as well... I got listed on MSN, Yahoo, etc.. with few keywords and I'm coming up there other than just typing in the URL, which is nice to see. I'm nowhere to be found on Google with keywords.

For any of you with new sites, they are probably in the Google Sandbox. That will limit the site's ability to rank well for competitive search phrases for probably 5 to 8 months, and possibly longer for the most competitive search phrases.

A Google rep at the recent SES conference indicated that the Sandbox is triggered by certain activities. He didn't elaborate on that, but aggressive link building with a new site is believed to be the trigger.

Good to see that my site comes up.

Defenitely grab some backlinks. Submit an article to EzineArticles.com (An article directory that is crawled by Google often) Submitting articles is a great way to get one-way backlinks and get some Google activity. Also, if you have any other sites, put a link to your new site on those.

Best of Luck!

Yeah... my new sites always get crawled quite quickly because i add a small text link to the bottom of all my well established sites.
