Searching archives after import

Hi,

I imported 4 years' entries to http://transblawg.eu and it looks good, with good permalink names. But if I use the Google site search plugin, or even an external Google site search, only the very recent entries are searched, not the imported ones.

For instance, I was looking for the word 'bronze', which comes up in an entry on July 5th about the Fürth pedestrian zone, but I could see any imported entries at all in the search results.

What do I do to make the whole site searchable?

TIA

Margaret

Hi!

You might need to give google a few days or weeks to let it spider your whole page. Usually on new or much changed domains, the google bot only covers a recursion depth of 2 or 3 pages. It can take very long until your whole page is spidered.

Regards,
Garvin

Google's cache for your site is dated 13th October 2007, when did you import the older entries?

OK, thanks, I didn't realize it was a Google problem. I probably imported a day or two later.
