Hello all, I need some suggestions here, I'm building a site for a niche, and I'm targeting 2 keywords (keyword1 and keyword2) that relates each other.

So here's what I have done:
1. I registered a domain: keyword1.com.
2. I installed wordpress and do some basic on-page seo like change the permalink and I use Wordpress SEO plugin. The xml sitemap is generated also.
3. I added 2 wordpress pages with the title: keyword1 and keyword2.
4. I added more wordpress pages: About, Contact, and Privacy Policy.
5. I make a wordpress post.
6. I submit my site to Google Webmaster Tool, Yahoo site explorer and Bing.

Now, a week later, I search in Google, and found out that all these pages are indexed: keyword1, about, contact, and privacy policy. The post is also indexed. But the wordpress page: keyword2 is not indexed. I take a look at my site's sitemap, it's already there.

So the questions are:
1. why isn't that one wordpress page indexed?
2. I tried to search my site on Yahoo and Bing, only the homepage (keyword1.com) is indexed, any of those other pages and post is indexed. Why?
3. Do I have to wait longer to get indexed?

Thank you.

    Since your site is so new google might not index every single page, build some backlinks to your site and the pages you want indexed.

    What i do when i finish a site is ping it with pingomatic then i let it sit for a week then start backlinking the site slowly and keep a consistent link velocity up. Then your site will be solid.

    Wordpress will ping pingomatic by default anytime you publish a new wp-post.

      thank you all for your replies..

      another question about pinging, if I ping each of my pages and posts to those pinging sites, will I be considered spamming?

      thanks
