      First i just want to say the 301s, change of address and nearly all outer links are changed to the new url since early september. Let me give you an example...

      Query: Custom Sweatbands

      Ranking URL: www.stbands.com/custom-sweatbands/

      **Correct URL that it is 301'd to for over 2 months now: **www.customonit.com/custom-sweatbands/

      More... new sitemap has been submitted since the beginning.  The old website www.stbands.com doesn't even exist anymore, in fact at the beginning of this month I got pretty angry and blocked search engines via the robots txt for the old domain.

      Any way I can get Google to catch on?

      Thanks in advance!

        • In Google SERPs some companies / government agencies have a Google-generated card for their organization and it references their Wikipedia page. It does not show for all companies /orgs that have a Wikipedia page. What is the criteria to have it shown?
