That has never worked.

Google et al are crawler based search engines. They find sites by crawling the web, so there is no way Google will list a site it can't find by following links to it from other sites.

I can find no links to your site. You need to get your site listed in directories and get other sites to link to you.

Tio! Even if they found you, there is nothing in your index.html that would give them a hint on who or what you are. How about some meta tag discriptions and keywords?

Also at least when I searched I got a link that went to your site, try that with www.onlinetv.com and see that google wont even let you have a link to see if there is a site.

Seriously, look to make a few meta tags and submit to a few free engines and try again. Your flash stuff leaves nothing to see on the page either.

Our site has been in the "sandbox" for over 14 months with no immediate hope in sight! We've got almost 3,000 IBL listed in MSN with many keywords in the top 10, and over 4,300 on Yahoo with many keywords in the upper SERP's.

Google for some reason does not want to let us in and there is no reason why not. We've never used any black hat techniques and our targeted keywords are true to what our site offers.

I hope you don't meet the same fate as us!

Like I said, you are much better off than I. Google returns a url with a link to your site to try. It does not do that for me.

You should read some of the other threads on other nightmares. Your site should get in, it is decent and has it's place, but I could not find your meta tags at all.

Thanks for the vote of confidence, always nice to hear happy thoughts!

Our Meta tags are there - we're only using the basic 3 tags, Title, Description and Keyword tags, and they are on all of our pages - I'm not sure why you didn't see them.

I've also been lurking on these forums for over a year reading about other sites that have been stuck in our position, but it seems they all get out eventually - hopefully we'll be out before the end of this football season since that's 70% of our annual business.

Good luck with your site too - I'm really starting to hate Google...
