Only home page indexed on Google

sham · 24-03-05

I have recently created a new site http://www.far-flung.co.uk with about 42 pages and have so far only had the home page indexed by Google. Is there any thing I should be doing to get Google to index all the other pages? I have included a robot.txt and all web-site pages can be accessed (not all directly) from the home page. MSN has so far indexed 6 pages (I have no idea why it's chosen these 6!). Any help much appreciated.

Anybody who wants to swap links, I am open to offers.
Thanks,
Sham.

msn's just quicker (and better) than google

just got to sit and wait, keep adding more pages while your waiting, or build another site, or take a holiday and call it research!

I may have the answer

your robots.txt sends an HTML page back to the browser

Create a robots.txt and your site should be indexed

Your meta tags could be improved:

Keywords: This tag contains too few characters. 3 keywords, most search engines read more than 4 keywords.

Robots: No robots meta tag. This tag is not really required but helps spiders to index the site.

Author: No author meta tag. This tag is not really required but helps for your (company) name recognizing.

In any case you now have 17 pages in the Google index:
