Okay, so, what am I doing wrong?

So, I've designed my pages for humans and not for search engines. My site architecture is a bit complex, but every page is within three clicks of the home page and I have no hidden or tricky links. While my HTML is messy (an artifact of the editor I'm using), it does validate. I'm not knowingly using any Search Engine Spam techniques; the keywords in my meta tags are all relevant to the content. I generate new sitemaps twice a month and upload them to Google religiously. My site is not static; I try to add new content at least once a week. Finally, my content is by and large unique; so far I haven't found a single site out there doing what I'm doing on anything close to the same scale I am, even though I'm still less than halfway to where I want to be eventually.

And still, Google doesn't seem to know that I exist.

Oh, my main page is indexed; you can google on my website title and the home page comes up. But, so far, none of the primary content (the timetables) seems to be indexed. Using Google's webmaster tools to check my site, only three pages (out of 58) even show up at all and one is a test page which has long since been relocated. And while one timetable does show as being indexed, a google on "timetable Mobile Noxapater" (which should show a hit) returns just nine results, none of which are in any way associated with my site.

Back when I was working out the kinks in my CSS formatting (with the kind help of the members of this forum), the test page did show up on Google's list and in fact, according to my web logs, I got several hits on it as the result of Google searches. But for the past two months--nada. Yahoo is showing several of my pages, as is MSN, but so far I have almost completely managed to elude Google's notice.

I'm not going to obsess over my page rank; as I said, my content is unique enough that it should make a strong showing in any suitably targeted search. But if it's not in their index at all--then what do I do?

Standing by for suggestions, I am...

I think you need some good backlinks to tell Google that your site is important. And you should have at least one onsite link to each page.

Linking to relevant links or related links will help...

Are you using Google's Webmaster Central? (www.google.com/webmasters)

I would go into what it does and what you can do but from reading your thread I'm sure after you sign up it will all explain yourself and I'll see a thank you ssandecki :)

Is the site you are referring to the one in your signature? If it's no ther, I suggest you add it there ;)

Having just a single backlink to a frequently crawled site would facilitates the process of getting your site indexed.

I think the HTML shouldnโ€™t only validate but at the same time it should be a clean code which is easy for the spiders to crawl.

Also the search engines donโ€™t check whether you are knowingly or unknowingly applying any spam or black hat techniques so better re-check what you have done as there are a lot of webmasters who have either been blacklisted or doesnโ€™t do any good in Google by applying unethical techniques unintentionally.

There is no need to generate new site maps and submit them. One well made site map of your site is enough for Google.
