Default 18 months on & sitemap not indexed

Can you say why this site map has not been crawled?
It been up for 18 months.
So none of my product pages have been crawled either.
They're content based, so I dont know why no indexation.

The index has been crawled recently.

Thanks

Google has indexed 17 pages on your site - and according to your site map, that sounds about right.

Do a search on Google for site:reviewsofgolfclubs.com and you'll see the pages Google knows about.

Did you know that if you try to get back to your front page by clicking on the top logo, you get an error page? And I don't see any other way to get back to your front page.

Also, I'd add links to your subpages on your front page. Not only is it a little clunky to have to go to the sitemap to get to the product pages, but it'll help you in the SERPS.

Hi cspelts

Thanks for having a look.
Strange thing is when I do a
site:www.reviewsofgolfclubs.com I get 2 links only.
Don't know why I get a restricted view.

And when I go to the other pages I thought weren't indexed, and do a cache snapshot view, it looks like google never visited.

Check to see if your searches on on google.uk rather than google.com -- you may well see different results on a regional google.

cspelts has pointed out one of the major problems with your site. No links to your home page.
It doesn't make sense from a visitor's pooint of view and certainly doesn't for SE bots.
