Forums Are Indexed By Google

[dstanovic]

I just noticed the forums must have been indexed by Google. I have not searched for them but I noticed it on my Google Toolbar. Page rank is low but that's probably due to the way Googles been acting during this update.

The main thread page has 6/10 - I'd say that was quite high for a relatively new site.

Jeez,

 

On my google toolbar it shows 2/10. But then I have noticed this on my pages as well. It has jumped in the past week from 5-6, then blank (but not zero, then to 2/10. It goes up and down by the hour with this new index. Sometimes it's loading new pages, sometimes old (cache). Right now on the main www.resource-zone.com it is showing a 2/10. We will see when things settle back down. You are right 6/10 is very good (wish I was there).

Google will still play the 'Google dance' in www, www1, www2 and www3 for a while, checking for the right PR to assign.

 

In any case, the Forum has been indexed, and that's good. Searches for relevant/useful kwds have the site well placed in SERPs:

 

dmoz public forum #1 and #2

open directory public forum #1 and #2

odp public forum #1 and #2

forum odp information #3 and #4

 

I wouldn't be surprised to see more strings pushed up by inbound links coming from several relevant info/news/ sites.

ettore,

You sure have that right /images/icons/smile.gif

 

This "dance" has not settled yet, at least on my site.

As of yesterday afternoon when doing a check using the query site:www."mysite".com home improvements on www3.google.com I had 7 of my new pages listed. They had all migrated to www.google.com when I checked in the evening and I had excellent positions for relevant terms.

 

Now this morning I am nowhere to be found in Google except my "regional" ODP listing. All pages have vanished from www. WWW3 shows some pages from February before a site re-design.

 

My Page rank has dropped drastically from the last index when my ODP was not even factored in. I don't understand and will wait until the dust settles before making a conclusion.
