franto.com

Few months ago I’ve created site http://filmcomposers.info about Movie Soundtracks Composers, because I like movie soundtracks and music composing (orchestral) (I really love Hans Zimmer work). But site is still not indexed by google. I was thinking, that’s because almost all content is done by WordPress plugin Pods and there are no posts or pages and just this site is linking to the site http://filmcomposers.info. So I’ve submitted site to Google Webmasters tools, still nothing, I have check if there is no robots.txt file or if inside of that file are search spiders disalloved. I didn’t find anything. Buuut, yes, I’m such a fool It’s WordPress privacy setting: I would like my blog to be visible to everyone, including search engines (like Google, Sphere, Technorati) and archivers or I would like to block search engines, but allow normal visitors. Yes, that’s why google can’t indexed my site This option adds meta tag into page header:

<meta name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow">

So if you have same problems and you have site based on WordPress, check in your Admin section Settings > Privacy or check html source code for robots meta tag in header.

After this discovery yesterday I’ve found out that even franto.com has same settings and it’s not indexed by google from time I’ve changed hosting provider few months ago. So I have rather changed all my other sites and they are all ok I think I need to create some AIR app for checking such SEO problems…
