Re: getting listed on search engines

Your home page has hardly any textual content, a ton of validation errors and big block of javascript that says to a search engine that you are more interested in flashy graphics than solid content.

I'm guessing that the search engines are muttering to themselves that if you make your site difficult for it to navigate and don't bother to provide decent content anyway, they won't clutter up their database with your site.

Re: getting listed on search engines

You also haven't fixed the meta tags bug that uses the noindex/nofollow in the wrong place.

Please do not PM for support issues: a private solution doesn't benefit the community.

Be careful with unsolicited advice via email or PM - Make sure the person you are talking to is a reliable source.
