Hello all, first time poster here.
I am having a problem with Google search results and everywhere Ive looked for a solution I seem to get the same answers and am going around in circles. Hoping someone can help me.
I've just finished a website for a friend of mine, however the website is not featuring in the Google search results. I've added the website with the google 'add url' feature. I have meta tags in place, I have plenty of external and internal links, I have added the website to both browseireland and searchireland, I hjave submitted it to a number of other directories, I have no broken links, I have included a sitemap and submitterd this to google too.
The website is not featuring at all in the search- I dont think its even been indexed- if I google sitesiteurl) it returns no documents. I understand that it takes time for google to crawl the website, however I don't understand whats going on because I have done two other websites in the past- 1 I also registered with google over 18months agoand is still not in the google index- the other I never registered with google as it showed up in the search results straight away.
Sorry for the long post but I wanted to make sure I outlined the problem clearly. The website I have launched is for a friends new business and understandably he wants it to feature in a google search, Ive told him that theres only so much I can do and it takes time but I myself cant understand how a website Ive done before, never registered with google is featuring no problem.
Any help would be hugely appreciated. Thanks
