    Posted: 10 February 2004 at 4:11pm

Google spiders the first page of my forum (and lists it) but isn't spidering the rest of it.  I know this for a fact.

Why is this?  I can't find one, but perhaps webwiz has some kind of spider=no tag on all the other pages??

It does spider the rest of the site (the forum is inside a /forum folder) but not the forum, other than  the first page.  You do NOT need to be logged in to view posts either.

If someone could help me with this I'd really appreciate it.

There is no reason in the code for google not to spider pages inside your forum.

Google spiders all the pages in the forum on this site and many other sites running web wiz forums.

Google does an initial scan of a site - just the home page and a couple of links off of it. Then returns 2-6 weeks later and performs a deep scan.

Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me.
