Hi all:
My site has been live since mid-March and I'm still not getting any play. When I first launched my site, I made the mistake of launching more than 200 empty pages that were differentiated from each other only by their page names and meta tags (no unique textual content at all). I intended to build out the content for each page as quickly as possible but after reading posts on this forum, I realized that I needed to pull all of the pages that have no content. I did this about two weeks ago and that's been fine. In regards to the search engines, I'm starting to get play on MSN. As for Google, I believe I'm in the sandbox so I'm not concerned about that right now. What I don't understand is why Yahoo is treating me like I don't exist. I'm concerned that when I had all those empty pages up there that I may have been penalized or flagged. Any thoughts on that? Should I be worrying or does Yahoo just take awhile to index new sites (NOTE: my homepage can be found if you search for it by name but that is all). Should I contact Yahoo and ask them if I've been penalized?
Any sage advice is most welcome...
