Default Is google ignoring urls with more than 2 words now? - 12-02-2003 , 07:07 AM






Ok, I did post a message but got no replies so my guess is people are as
confused as I am. However....

I have submitted 4 brand new sites recently.

The first was online-shopping-sites.com

Over the last months I have also submitted 3 others that were either a
couple of words or joined together (no hyphens).

The online shop one still isn't on there but all the others are and were
indexed very fast.

My question have any of you come across problems with a domain name made
up of more than 2 words which also use hyphens?

I have seen something similar to this posted but it didn't quite answer
this question.

It is nothing to do with the domain. There are many sites like that indexed.

I have a two name hypenated domain on page 3 of my serps and I see a
few of other people's sites on page one of my serps with two name
hypnenated domains. What I don't see as much anymore are those very long
double hypenated and triple hypenated domain names since the florida
update. Those I won't miss if they don't come back.

I just don't get it. I get all my clients (80+) good rankings but when
it comes to making a little site for me to profit me I can't get it on
google.

I'm going to sulk in the corner now and keep on waiting
