Continued Lack of Google Indexing

[mkoster]

I can see where you're going, so I'll say:

Our content is written 100% by our writers. Our content is syndicated everywhere (USA Today, MSG, Yahoo Sports!, etc). Could the samples sentences be an issue?

Image licensing is handled by my sports network (The Score is cable TV channel in Canada).

Everything is on the up and up on the site. Anyone else

Good news!

Sorry, I can't seem to edit. I should add that the syndication/image situation has been the same for the past two years.

Links structure is very very good.

For example, whenever the site updates a small syndication is updated on Yahoo! Sports (http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/teams/tor/blogs)

Your sitemap.xml file has three entries.  I recommend automating the URL generation in it to include new content as it's posted, with lastmod set to the date/time of posting.  I'd then get that file pinged out to Google at least once a day if you've got new content every day, or even each time a new article is written.

I'd also put a date/time stamp tag in the header using the HTML standard meta tag format for dates

That isn't guaranteed to help, however it has helped some sites I've worked on in the past.

Regarding the source ownership factor, I'd also recommend using the Google Source Attribution tag on all your articles.

Thanks.

I was thinking about getting a wordpress plugin for the sitemap. It hasn't been an issue in the past but then again things are different now.

Meta trick is new, I'll give that a shot.

[mkoster]

Another good idea. Thanks again

[AlanBleiweiss]

if you're on WP, then I definitely recommend the Google XML Sitemaps plug-in.  Does all the heavy lifting for you.

Have you tried seeding your new content through social media to see if that helps? (As soon as the new article is released post it to your Facebook and Twitter accounts, along with getting a few RT's / likes)...

[mkoster]

Yes we do.

We get numerous retweets from regular readers + team specific twitter feed aggregators.

I'm not sure how to remove answered.

I came across this link to my site via google:

http://mopupduty.com/index.php/jose-bautista-gold-glove-candiate/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+JoseBautistaNewsOnDaylife+(ExcitingAds!+Jose+Bautista+News+on+Daylife)\

Is this auto generated by my wordpress blog? I assume it is just a regular link, letting me know the source is Day Life.

I also ran my article text through Copyscape and came up with 10 different matches
