Can't be found in Google

[joshkarrer]

I own www.crossingschurch.com, a site which has been up for many months.. I have submitted to Google my robots file and my site map. My code looks good and d my submitted files look good. On Google Webmaster Tools it shows that the googlebots have searched my site.

However, and this is where it gets frustrating., it says that there are no pages in the index to show. How can the googlebots climb all over my site and then say that they don't see any pages in the index.

Also, when i type "site:http://www.crossingschurch.com" in the search bar, i do not exist. When i type "info:http://www.crossingschurch.com" in the search bar , i do not exist.

Can anyone explain this or give me some feedback on how i can get into google. thanks

Looks to me like you simply lack sufficient link juice for G to index the site...

I do realize that i don't have a whole lot of links.. But i probably have maybe around a dozen or so. The weird thing is that when you type "link:http://wwww.crossingschurch.com" i still am not found.

I wouldn't worry about building links yet, there is not enough compelling content to get ranked. You really need to add content.

Publishing more relevant content will make a difference.

I disagree. There is plenty of brochure-ware out there with less content than this and they rank fine. The problem is that all of the site's meta data is exactly the same (so once it is indexed, it'll probably be sent to the supplemental index), and there are not enough quality IBLs.

Agree on the meta-data (though more content certainly wouldn't go amiss) and would add that there is an additional factor which may be relevant - all the addresses in the links point to the domain address without the www. Almost like the site is giving itself the canonical problem.
