Hi,

I submitted the index page for my new site to Google thinking that it would
follow all links and index each page. Only the index got listed. Anyone know
why? The URL is http://members.iinet.net.au/~vanluynm/Reviews/index.php

Regards,
Murray R. Van Luyn.

It might not have been able to follow links from your home page or
else it decided your site wasn't important enough to index fully. Get
more incoming inks from sites related to yours and you should be ok.

Hi
Apart from what BB said, while you have time, it would be better to
rewrite your URLs.

You have :
Kyosho_Caliber_400_Electric_RC_Helicopter_Review.p hp

Would be better :
Kyosho-Caliber-400-Electric-RC-Helicopter-Review.php

HTML or Google XML sitemap?
Everything helps, but most important is backlinks!

You should consider maybe making an alternative website
structure which does not have all links placed on the same page.

Please don't top post.

Sitemap won't hurt, but most important are links, links, and links.
