    Hi Guys,

    I have a website that google cannot find.
    For some reason if I type in the exact address of my site Google still cannot find any results for it. I see all kinds of other results, but not my homepage, or official site homepage.

    I’ve uploaded a sitemap, verified my site with google, and still…
    I’m in the dark online! Where do I go from here?
    How can I fix this problem?

    Thx Guys!

    Post a link to your site.

    If it’s a brand new site, patience is the key. Well, that and a few incoming links.

    Also check that the site is visible to web crawlers (Admin > Settings > Privacy).

    Could be a number of things. Post your site URL here.

    There are a few code validation errors that might possibly stop you from being indexed (if Google can’t crawl the site properly), but Googlebot is pretty forgiving from my experience, so I doubt that’d be the case. Might want to fix them up anyway.

    Only other comment that springs to mind would be that there’s not a lot of text content to actually be indexed – so that might be a factor (nice looking site though). Pictures with little/no surrounding text don’t usually tend to rank very well.

    Getting some decent links from other relevant sites would help enormously too.
