Well I've just found out that I've been crawled by google, with my homepage now in the index. I've checked my stats and it says googlebot has visited two pages, but shouldn't it be more? Or does google visit different pages at different times?

Thanks,
Mike

That's normal for me - Google grabs your page to make sure it's actually there, has a sniff, and comes back later to consume ;)

Yeah, same here. Normally happens within 2 weeks of the first crawl. Though I continue to submit pages until it does ;)

I do chromates thing. Usually gives google a scent to come back.

Ah, good to know, because it appears only my homepage has been spidered so far :p

Hmm... well I've just checked allinurl: mp3playerreviews.net and it doesn't list anything now.

Anyone know the cause?

It takes time for new content to be listed permanently.

http://www.playflashgames.net had been googled relativly fast, and all the pages have been spidered...

And I submitted it to Google, after you I believe...

I'm back in, so hopefully the rest of my pages will be there pretty soon.

I've now got three pages indexed. One of them is a page with links to products on. Google put this in the index earlier today, so should I expect all my product pages to be spidered pretty soon, or should they have been done by now?

I'd expect them to be done soon :)

I hope so...

Googlebot doesn't seem to be following any links. It gets to the page that lists reviews, but then stops. The same with the homepage. I'm getting daily visits but Google just doesn't seem to be getting any further.

Anyone know what's wrong? My pages are now quick so I don't think it can be because of a slow server response.

Well googlebot spidered most of my product pages, I think, last week. Should they have been indexed by now?

Thanks a lot,
Mike

The time varies. It's hard to tell.
