Root page not coming up first
-
Hello.
Any idea why site:www.bestprice.gr query doesn't bring the www.bestprice.gr as the first result?
Could it be that the site is under a penalty?
Thanks.

Hello,
It don't appear in any page? Weird...
Maybe robots.txt, meta robots?
-
Nothing weird on robots.txt. (http://www.bestprice.gr/robots.txt)
As for the "meta robots", please elaborate.
-
Let me check your page...
(thinking)
Meta robots is an alternative way to say to Google that he can go to an specific page, but just what you want him to do, like indexing, but nofollowing. The list is below:
The standard is INDEX, FOLLOW, that's why it doesn't appear above.But I checked your site, it don't have that there, so it's not meta robots.

Oh, no, nothing like that indeed.
We, in fact, render meta tags (description and keywords) only if the user-agent is identified as bot.
Here is how GoogleBot "sees" the page: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:1TyyWcAAVlsJ:www.bestprice.gr/+&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk
Again, as you said, weird.

I don't think your site is under a penalty, if it were, you would not see any links in the search result.
It is weird, especially since the query "bestprice.gr" and "www.bestprice.gr" (no "site:" ) bring up the root domain as the first result.

That's what I think too.
However, I do feel this has to do with some kind of penalty or issue concerning our site.
If any clues come up, please share.
Thanks.
