My site has been up since June 1 of 2005..I feel I have done a good job getting links exchanged, raising PR..etc..My site just celebrated its 9 month birthday and has a PR5 now with what linkpopularitycheck says is 113 link popularity (it only climbed 20 on the update!)..I am worried however. There are two keywords that my site triggers (Free Blue Widget and Blue Widget) and they are getting top 3 in yahoo/msn but still do not show up in Google..at first I knew it would take time but i thought I should see it indexed by 7-8 months..is it possible my site is being penalized? is there a way for me to check? even though my PR just went up 1 on the new update...What do you guys think how long should it take for my site to hit the SERPS..I see no optimization problems that should not have me in at the worst the top 10 of my 2 keyphrases..thanks in advance!This is a good tool to use....Take a look at your site....http://www.widexl.com/remote/search-eng ... lyzer.htmlsince you have so many links pointing towards your site, it should be indexed by google.if you type your url in google search bar you should find it, otherwise we may assume that it is penalised for some reason.sorry I think I described this wrong. My site is indexed and crawled by Google but is not appearing in the ranking pages. The two keywords I am targeting I get top 5 for in both msn/yahoo..and gets crawled by google almost daily..and it has no been 9 months but I am still not showing up in google..I am wondering if this could be some kind of penalty or something that is stopping it?
