It looks like Googlebot has timed out, at least once, for one of our URLs. Why is Googlebot timing out? My server is located at Amazon WS, in North Carolina and it is a small instance. Could Google be querying multiple URLs at the same time and jamming my servers? Could it be becauseThanks for your help!

Your website is currently not showing up properly in my browser. I have used chrome, Safari and Firefox.

Currently your site shows 14 indexed pages in Google

site:www.memovalley.com

can you tell me when website was created?

Was there a recent change because for some reason your website is redirecting to

www.memovalley.com/#!welcome

did you add a tracking system that is adding this to your links?

site:www.memovalley.com/#!welcome

the other odd thing is your blog http://blog.memovalley.com/ showing a favicon for Wordpress.com meaning it is hosted there on WordPress.com not with a true separate hosting companies like you said you were using Amazon

I have to be able to see your site code in order to tell you why Google bot is timing out on me run some quick tests with other tools and I will post very quickly

okay I was able to pull your site code so you know it works on the newest version of Web Kit which is based on Safari only for me.

You have some large coding issues that are most likely preventing you from being indexed properly.

Your page structure is not allowing Google to read anything. Google can only read 16 words from your home page this is making Google bot think there is nothing there and is not a useful webpage. You also still have an issue with the forwarding to a

#welcome

the two links below will show you what Google bot is able to see when indexing your website.

the reason I believe this is happening is you are using Ajax preventing Google from reading your site correctly. Here is a link talking about how you can fix this. The reason I believe this is because of the hash tag

"AJAX URLs, that is, URLs containing a hash fragment, for example www.example.com/index.html#key=value, where #key=value is the hash fragment."

you may want to consider using a boilerplate I would build the site out of wordpress as its architecture is superb and you would not have these issues.
