Problem With Google Indexing My Site

[Guest]

Hi,

 

We recently setup our store and added the all_products.php contribution to make it easier for google to find our products when it comes crawling. Google visited yesterday and we appear to have the following problems:-

 

1) Very few of our products are listed. We have over 700 currently but hardly any are actually listed.

2) Those that are listed if you try to follow the link it does not find the product. Think this is something to do with the session id appearing in the url. IE

www.dnmsystems.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=& products_id=45&osCsid=0bfc6012e9a30feea5e34633ade65349

3) How do you stop google listing things like product_reviews.php

 

Any help would be most appreciated.

 

Thanks,

 

Dave

Make sure the cookies settings in your includes/configure.php file is correct..

 

Then....

 

1. go into your admin , configuration>>session and set Prevent Spider Sessions to True

 

2. download and use the latest spiders.txt fil from the contributions section....

 

Then....

 

Be patient..if its a fairly new url..Google will index you good for about the first week..and then drop you like a stone....then about 3 months later Google will index and list you good again..its called the google sandbox effect..do a google search and read more about it....

3 - Add a robots.txt file and list product_review as a file to ignore.
