About a week ago I started my second self hosted web site, using WordPress and the default Twenty Eleven WP theme and posted a few test posts. Three days ago I deleted these test posts, then replaced the default Twenty Eleven WordPress theme with a theme that I generated with the Artisteer program, and finally I uploaded my first real content on a Page (not a Post). This page is not getting indexed anywhere. Google, Bing, Yahoo - they all don't have it indexed. On the other hand my test posts that I posted on the site in the very beginning, to test if WordPress is working correctly, got indexed immediately and are still visible in Google's cache when I search for my site's URL. In other words: the old deleted posts are cached by Google but my new, 3-days-old Page isn't. The page is optimized for SEO and passes all SEO tests for quality of optimization but it's just not getting indexed. Why isn't the new content getting indexed?
BTW, I just deleted that Page and posted the same content but this time as a Post. And guess what - my newly created post is also not getting indexed by Google (unlike the old test posts that got indexed and became searchable almost immediately). What is going on? Why are Google, Bing and Yahoo all of a sudden hating me now? |

Maybe it is just luck of the draw that the other content cot crawled quickly. I would give it a little longer and you might find you have been indexed. Do you have any links from authority sites/sources that get crawled often?

However, I think the links that I built will make Google and the others crawl my site only after they crawl the linking sites. So it again comes down to how often Google & the others crawl sites. I guess not too often. | |

That is correct but if the sites are good and get crawled very often then you should also get crawled quickly. Maybe it was just coincidence the last time and the linking site happened to being crawled when your content went live? Do you have WMT? Another option could be to submit a sitmap. |

For now it's likely variance, but there is a thing called trust rank that will factor into your pages getting indexed.

| WMT? What is that? I think I have a site map - the SEO plugin that I am using is supposed to automatically build one. I just noticed that my old Page is indexed now. Too bad I deleted it and replaced it with a Post, lol. |

you have to be patient, google will get to it eventually. I've had websites that took about a week to get indexed and some 2-5 hours. |

Sometime it takes longer time to index because once my website took three or four weeks to index but then it improved rapidly.

I guess I was lucky the first time around with those test posts. They really did get indexed immediately. | |

Patience grasshopper. The young deer who bounds up the mountain can fall off the cliff if he runs too quickly.

Once a site gains authority, it will be indexed within minutes, no linking or other gyrations needed. Even before it gains authority. A sitemap gets you nothing, really. Paul | |
