    Hm, something wrong, no changes over 3 weeks

    Hey there everyone,

    I'm not sure what has happened or if the whole VBSEO process is going correctly for me at UltimateMetal.com - Supporting The Metal Underground. Forums, Discussion, Interviews, Reviews.

    I installed/ran this over 3 weeks or so ago. I've been watching results to site:UltimateMetal.com - Supporting The Metal Underground. Forums, Discussion, Interviews, Reviews and they have decreased steadily from 175,000 to 53,500 as of today. The result for site:Ultimate Metal Forum is only 3,150. The Cron runs each day and seems to work and complete fine.

    In Google webmaster tools it shows this:
    " Googlebot last successfully accessed your home page on Dec 9, 2006."

    My site map was uploaded Dec. 4 with 9415330 URLs submitted. The status shows as "OK" and last download 3 hours ago.

    What could be the delay or causing my main page URLs to go down like this? Am I being impatient and should sit back and wait a while since it was so many URLs submitted?

    Nothing is wrong. Most likely vbseo has consolidated your urls so you no longer have duplicates (different urls leading to the same place, like www.mysite.com and mysite.com) and that would account for the lower serps.

    Are you using the sitemap generator? If so, it should be upping it every day...

    But my site has : Threads: 204,443, Posts: 4,295,189 - so I would assume that submitting Sitemaps should have at least a majority of the thread topics submitted?

    Are you seeing the googlebot hitting your site a lot in your vbseo sitemap stats? It can take a while to get all those pages indexed if it is only doing a few thousand a day.
