Dear warrior members,

I need help regarding a Google indexing issue. I've a website and I directly redirected it to another website, the problem is Google isn't indexing my website, I don't even found it anywhere on web.

I've made lots of dofollow backlinks on my website, from last 20 days I'm doing daily backlinks on my website. Naturally I may expect my website should be listed on google in this long time.

My website has no content, I just redirected it to another domain.

Can you please help me to understanding the problem with my website.
My website is "freesportsbets.info"

Thanks is advance.

    You need to redirect with masking.

    You can't just redirect and expect to stay visible to SERPs.

    For example, my site http://tweetattacks2.com is a redirect with masking - Notice that the domain stays the same in the address bar, it doesn't change to the actual URL.

    It also shows up in search results.

      Thank you for your kind reply. I'm not familiar with masking. Can you provide me a resource please from where I can get the complete procedure.

      For your kind notice I just have the domain, and it's forwarded to another website. Do you want me to add some unique content on my website first?

    Who is your domain registered with?

    Mine is with GoDaddy - If yours is too, I can show you exactly how to get there.

    Here is a screen shot of the options in GoDaddy when I go to forward a domain:

    edit: hmm, doesn't seem to work this way. I'll upload to photobucket, 1 sec



    As you can see there should be something that says advanced options - click that, and redirect with masking should be inside. No matter what domain registrar you have.

        My friend, I'm still thinking to use Masking redirection for my website http://freesportsbets.info But suddenly I discovered it's indexed now! YaHooo!! Thanks to all..

        I don't know how he did this, I was suggested my technical guy to use Masking, he replied everything seems ok now! But one thing is I'm not happy with the ranking. What can I do now for its SEO. Do you know guys is there any good way to SEO for this type of redirected links. Any kind of help will be appreciated highly.

      I've activated Masking, And its really Great! Thank you for your suggestion my friend. Can you do me one more favor please, How to do seo for this redirected link. Is that possible to get good search engine ranking for these type of redirected links. Its strange that I did several Article Posts linking back to my website and lots of backlinks, But I can't see my website on the first page even for the search term freesportsbets.info, at least I should see my website on the top for my domain search. Isn't it strange.

      Do you think it's happening for a redirected link?

    TweetAttacks2.com is a PR2.

    The site I am redirecting to has done ZERO SEO WORK - NO backlinks at all.

    And they are ALSO a PR2 from all of the SEO work I have done on my domain.

    So yes, it does happen

    Don't believe me?

    http://pagerankupdates.com/check-google-pr/

    Go there, type in tweetattacks2.com - you will see its a PR2.

    Now type in tweetattacks.com - You will see that they are also a PR2 with no backlinks at all. I brought them up from building up my own domain.. lol thats awesome.
