| Google not following links
Hi guys... I've just noticed that Google is not following the links on my forums pages! For example, the home page, TalkHttp - Powered by vBulletin has been crawled by Google, however, when I go to Useful scripts - TalkHttp , the page has not been indexed by Google. Type "cache:http://www.talkhttp.net/useful-scripts/" into the Google search box so you can see what I mean. It's has not been indexed, even though the last crawl of the home page was on the 12th of Nov. You can verify this by typing "cache:http://www.talkhttp.net" into the Google search box. The link on the home page pointing to Useful scripts - TalkHttp has been there for a few months now, so it should have been indexed by Google. I'm not sure why this is happening, and I haven't a clue where to start looking. I searched through the forum topics here but couldn't find any anything that looked helpful. Please help. :-( Cheers Damian Last edited by Talkhttp; 11-15-2006 at 08:09 PM. |

The site has already been indexed. If you type the following line into the Google search box.... Code: cache:http://www.talkhttp.net However, the only thing Google has indexed is the home page. The Google bot didn't follow any links on the home page, which is really worrying. |

I'll look into Google sitemap and webmaster tools as well to see if they shed any light on exactly why the Google bot isn't following any links from the home page. |
