Help with google.

[quovadimus02]

The site has been live for 2 months and I still hasn't been indexed by google. I've never had a problem like this before so any help would be awesome. My url is www.RobinSchoen.com (http://www.robinschoen.com). If anyone could offer me some help it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone.

The add URL may work:

http://www.google.com/addurl/?continue=/addurl

However the most simple way in is to have a few incoming links to you. If you land yourself on 2-4 PR 3 pages on other website, it won't be long until you appear. I would therefore suggest being diplomatic and trading links on a few other related websites.

Although your site looks fabulous to all the net surfers, Google's spiders are seeing nothing when they arrive to index your site. All of your text is in Flash, so the Google bot can't read it. These spider bots can see only HTML coding and text. Google bots do not even bother to read the meta tags anymore.

So the spider thinks your site has no content, thus they will not index or list it. A resource that I like to use to see exactly what the bot is seeing on a page is: Grite Technologies' Poodle Predictor (http://www.gritechnologies.com/tools/spider.go) . You can enter your URL and Grite will spider your site and show you how Google sees it.

There are several good articles about Optimizing a site for Flash:

and

.... but I have not had great success with SEO on totally Flash sites. Both of the above articles have great suggestions about hiding the text within div tags and alt tags and object tags, but I think ultimately Google doesn't much like that.

My suggestion is to find a way to embed your Flash within areas of the pages, and leave parts of the page free to hold enough text to satisfy Google that you do endeed have content.
