Can't find site with keyword search

[Guest]

My site, Rose C. Zerbe's Camiguin Island , was been accepted I guess because I can find it by drilling down through Top: Regional: Asia: Philippines: Provinces: Camiguin. I am however unable to find it by doing keyword searches. What needs to be done to make it searchable? Thanks

Nothing. As detailed in several other threads in theis forum, the ODP search engine normally updates on a weekly basis (after the RDF dump has been produced). Unfortently, due to technical difficulties, the RDF dump (and, therefore, the search engine database) has been been updated since the end of September.

 

ODP staff are aware of this problem and have made it their highest priority to get it fixed. Things are looking even more hopeful of it being fixed within the fortnight (hopefully with the next few days).

 

Oh - and, when it is up to date, you won't find it by searching for any keywords. It only indexes your site title, the category and your site's description. It does not store any "keywords" or other data.

Thank you Beebware for your time. You are right, I saw that elsewhere in the forum but didn't realize it applied to me. No accounting for noobies <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" alt="" />.
