      This site was moved to a new host by the client a month back and is still not indexed in Google UK if you search for the site directly.

      www.loftconversionswestsussex.com

      Webmaster tools shows that 55 pages have been crawled and no errors have been detected. The client also tried the "Fetch as Google Bot" tactic in GWT as well as running a PPC campaign and the site is still not appearing in Google. Any thoughts please?

      Cheers,

      SEO5..

        Hi,

        Is the number of links I see in Open Site Explorer the real number of links or are there more? That could be a reason as I see only 9 sites linking to your clients site. With this kind of number it could be that Google still hasn't found the site at all and so doesn't think it's worth to index it.

        Besides that, you don't need me to rethink the keyword spam in the footer of the site, right right?

          Hi there,

          Assuming that http://northernheights.co.uk/ is the previous website, it's still clearly indexed / returning a 200 OK server response - no 301 redirect has been put in place.

          http://**www.**northernheights.co.uk/ redirects, but you need to redirect the non-www version too. This could be halting indexation of the new site because Google can still find it in the old location.

          Agreed with Martijn about the footer, best get rid of that 🙂

            Thanks Matijn. Agree with the spammy footer.
