Default Indexing problems

Hi there,

I am in a fix here

I have two sites...almost same but in different areas..

one is Get Autos NH | Buy Used Cars & New Cars | Sell a Car | Find Car Dealers | Home and other is Search Bid Drive in Southern New England | Search car dealers in Rhode Island and MA | Buy new or used cars and trucks in RI and MA

while in google site:getautosnh.com shows over 4500 indexed pages.... site:searchbiddrive.com shows only under 300

I dont know why it is not indexing the other pages...it has over 8000 pages (searchbiddrive.com)

Can anyone put any light on this and help me ?

Thanks!!

Mamoon

It's no small wonder why none of your pages are being indexed.

Your sitemap.xml and robots.txt files are missing on both sites. Both of these omissions represent contributing factors as to why the site(s) are not being spidered fully.

In the same vein, Google sees a mere 9 inbound links for getautosnh.com and only one for searchbiddrive.com. Without a number of inbound links, you're telling Google that the sites are not very important. That's certainly another area to focus on.

Do a content search using copyscape.com and you'll probably find that both sites are strikingly similar. None of the content appears original, there isn't really any "meat and potatoes" content, simply product pages and OBL's to articles hosted on other sites.

Write some original articles and acquire some inbound links to them. That'd help a lot.

I agree with Dubbya, the content site is generally the same. Google will have no incentive to crawl and rank your pages.

I also noticed you have duplicated, repeated some of your title tags across multiple pages.


I am sure their are other issues, if we looked long enough,


I would revisit the Basics of SEO and treat each site differently.



Thanks
Steve

I quite often subscribe one important fact all website worryiers should keep in mind. Remember....

Search engines rank pages not websites

I had to quote this response because parts of it are close to what I will say.

This is my take on it.
I did check on Copyscape and it came up with no matches. The reason for this is that there really isn't any text content to match with. The page is only 1 to 3 word combination's, images and forms. That isn't enough for their site to get a match on.

I wouldn't put it past search engines to know that other sites are close to matching yours though.

the demo.ebdcsolutions.com setup like this is used by quite a few websites.
You can view the others that look like yours at the follow link.
"Powered by eBDCsolutions" - Google Search
There are 543 results and all of them are almost identical.
Sadly even there side pages look like the homepage.

I wish you the best of luck,
Google Junky
