| A little concerned.
My new vBulletin forum was put online on Thursday (3 days ago). Now while you're probably thinking that I'm being a bit eager in expecting my forum pages to show in Google already, my forum's index page is already indexed in google. The forum is at Destination Tenerife forums - and I'm wondering if Google indexed it before I removed the '- Powered by vBulletin' phrase from the title of the forum pages (that was probably removed late Friday evening), and found that on every page, and isn't bothering to show any other pages, as it thinks they are duplicate content? My worry is that zero of my actual forum pages are indexed within Google - I'm right in thinking that the URL destinationtenerife.com/forum - Google Search should show all of my forums indexed pages? If so, my index is the only page showing, and it's showing it with the old title, ie; the one with '- Powered by vBulletin' in it. Any tips, ideas, suggestions, would be gratefully appreciated. Edit: I have all my sitemaps done and uploaded to Google's webmaster tools, via vbseo's sitemap plugin. |

If you look carefully at your search This is G o o g l e's cache of http://www.destinationtenerife.com/forum/ as retrieved on 12 Jun 2008 21:55:18 GMT. Therefore Google saw that page before you changed it. 3 days is just too soon to see more I think. |

nothing happens overnight. 3 days for a brand new site... just having the index in there is AWESOME results. don't expect anything serious to happen for 2-3 weeks. It's just how long google takes most the time. |

Ah, don't get me wrong, I do understand that Google will take a long time to index 'new' stuff I think I was just getting a little ahead of myself after seeing my index in there so very quickly Thanks for the replies. |
