Hi,

I found a backlink to my site, like this:

http://www.google.com/safebrowsing/d...ite=mysite.com

Something like this was on it:

Safe Browsing
Diagnostic page for www.mysite.com

What is the current listing status for www.mysite.com?
This site is not currently listed as suspicious.

What happened when Google visited this site?
Google has not visited this site within the past 90 days.
Has this site acted as an intermediary resulting in further distribution of malware?
Over the past 90 days, www.mysite.com did not appear to function as an intermediary for the infection of any sites.

Has this site hosted malware?
No, this site has not hosted malicious software over the past 90 days.


My questions are:

"Google has not visited this site within the past 90 days"
What does this mean?
Because I have a sitemap, it is periodically being refreshed and Google did update PageRank, I am gettingr crawls.

Normally I'd identify the "Google visiting" with "Google crawling"

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Is there anything I should do about the site? Is anything 'wrong' without me being aware of it?

I hope this only refers to Google's verification/security scan or something... Otherwise I am really having SEO/SERPs issues with the site and working on it right now.

    Without the URL, we can't help you all that much! Could be code-based, could be how you're submitting your XML Sitemap, etc. There are several outlying reasons that could be throwing that.

    One things for sure: you want Google looking at your site more often.

    Yes, I want it more often... but in Google Webmaster Tools it doesn't look that bad!

    Ideas on how to increase crawl rates, faster indexing?
    (I thought it was good enough, I thought the sitemap and GWT was helping... hmm)
