Googling my site

Hi-
If I publish my site through iWeb to .Mac and use a domain name with a link to my .Mac address will people be able to Google my name and find my website?
Example: mydog.com: with a link to web.mac.com/bobsmith
Hope the question makes sense.
thanks
dgoodson

Anyone know how long it takes to index after submitting to Google? I've had http://www.sight2bseen.com submitted for a week now without showing up.
Cheers!

  • Google Analytics site no longer works in Safari 5

    I just updated to Safari 5 last week and have been having the same kind of issues that other people are posting here about slowness and inability to find servers and crashes etc.
    My biggest issue now is that Google Analytics website no longer works. It worked just fine in Safari 4x and works fine in every other browser I've used on a Mac or PC. In Safari 5 part of the page loads and then a pink rectangle appears at the top center of the page that says:
    "This page has encountered an error that may prevent it from working correctly."
    The box has an X to close it but that's it. I have never seen this type of error appear on any other website, either using Safari 4 or 5.
    I really need this site for my business. And I'm not interested in changing to Firefox or some other browser.
    I have also just purchased the upgrade to Snow Leopard but have not installed it yet.
    Has anyone else found this error message in Safari 5 and have any advice?
    Thanks!

    Here is another update, I have tried the following:
    Removed all internet plugins
    Reset Permissions
    Deleted all Google cookies
    After resetting permissions, S5 is running faster and seems normal again but Google Analytics site still will not work! Still getting the same pink error message.

  • Extension request: Google personal site blocking

    Please make a Safari equivalent of the Google Personal Site Blocking extension they provide now for Chrome!
    Getting rid of all that content farm (expletive deleted) is SO valuable.
    TIA!

    Apple won't necessarily read anything that is posted here.  It's for user interchange, so you're preaching to the choir.

  • Google Services/Sites only sometimes work on Firefox

    I also have been experiencing the same problem as the OP. Google services including Google Search, GMail, and YouTube are all intermittently inaccessible through the most recent version of firefox on my MacBook Pro running OS X 10.6.8. Additionally, sites that use Google APIs also hang (sometimes) when they try to load.
    This is frustrating to me because I depend on these services for much of what I do on the web. It is especially frustrating because Firefox has been a dependable and useful browser for me for years. I have had to start using chrome as a workaround but would really prefer to stick with Firefox.
    I have identified this problem as specific to firefox, as I have no issues with the Google services in Chrome or Safari. I am also always able to get normal pings to https://www.google.com and https://www.gmail.com through Network Utility on my Mac.
    I have tried all of the above solutions including - clearing the cache and cookies (like a zillion times by now) - disabling and deleting all add-ons - starting firefox in safe mode - deleting firefox and reinstalling from a freshly downloaded dmg - manually deleting the user profile for firefox from Library - Changing the manual proxy setting to NO PROXY in firefox preferences - removing all trusted add-ons from firefox preferences - Pushing RESET in the about:config dialog - Resetting my modem/router
    I tried to adjust the keyword setting in about:config but when i searched for it it was not present. I wonder if this is part of the problem.
    Additionally I have removed the Auto-update files that google software like google earth use to call home to check for updates.
    None of these have resolved the issue. I still can only sometimes access Google services using firefox. If I am logged in to GMail using Firefox, i will at some point lose connection and be unable to reestablish the connection for an indeterminate period of time.
    This problem has been going on longer than a week or two, maybe a month. I don't know what to do to resolve the issue.
    I believe there must be something broken in the way Firefox handles requests for google sites that I have not yet been able to reset or change.
    Please, if anyone has found an actual, permanent solution, respond to this thread.
    Thanks!
    (this seems to be similar to the problem described in another Mozilla support thread: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/963648 )

    as an update, I wanted to add that when firefox gets stuck, in the status bar at the bottom, it will usually say that it is trying to load ajax.googleapis.com (or something like that).
    I have also started opening the console in firefox (cmd+opt+k) to watch the behavior of sites when they load. Under the network tab in console, google type sites will take 76000+ ms to load. i am only beginning to use the console and don't know exactly what to do with it yet, so i will be experimenting and updating as i learn more.
    if i experience a loading hang with a google site in firefox, clearing the cache/history does not work. however, it seems like if i quit and restart firefox, the google site will then load. i am unsure whether this "clears" something in the browser or just gives the connection enough time to fix whatever is causing the hang.
    other possibilities: in console it seemed like one of the delayed site attributes was a javascript from google (a .js file) - it took 70000+ ms to load. perhaps there is a problem with javascript?

  • Google and site maps

    Hi All,
    I have had a bit of advice on google already, however I thought that I would open this up to the wider forum as I have checked through other posts and cannot seem to get an answer that will work for me.
    I am needing to add a site map as I believe that this will help google 'trawl' my website and I also need to get my site verified on google, however I am having problems uploading the html code via cyber duck or file zilla to my website.
    In advance I will say that I am not very technically minded and it has taken several months to get my site up and running to how it is at the moment, however I am proud of what I have achieved through working stuff out and learning the techniques on this site. I will not purchase any program that I do not need to and I thank you all so very much in advance for your time and patience.
    In relation to SEO, is it worth me spending the money on someone else doing this with me not being so technically minded?
    Website is here: www.blackstar-events.co.uk (I appreciate all feedback, both positive and constructive)
    Kind Regards,
    Laura

    This is the URL of your Home page....
    http://www.blackstar-events.co.uk/Blackstar-Events/Blackstar_Events.html
    From this it looks like you have uploaded a folder called Blackstar-Events to to your server. This probably sits inside a folder called "public_html" or something like that which is why you have the extra - /Blackstar-Events - in the URL.
    If you upload the Google verification file and the sitemap.xml to the root public folder, the path will be....
    http://www.blackstar-events.co.uk/google.html and http://www.blackstar-events.co.uk/sitemap.xml
    If the Google verification file and the sitemap.xml have been uploaded to the Blackstar-Events folder which contains all the rest of your website files, the path is....
    http://www.blackstar-events.co.uk/Blackstar-Events/google.html and
    http://www.blackstar-events.co.uk/Blackstar-Events/sitemap.xml
    If you uploaded the Google verification file, try entering both variations of the URL into the browser...
    http://www.blackstar-events.co.uk/google.html
    http://www.blackstar-events.co.uk/Blackstar-Events/google.html
    .... to see which is successful. Obviously, you have to substitute your google file name for "google.html".

  • All Google related sites won't load

    MacBook Pro
    13-inch, Early 2011
    Processor: 2.3 GHz Intel Core i5
    Memory: 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 3000 384 MB
    Software: OS X 10.8.3
    I started having this problem Thursday, and I haven't been able to solve it since.
    My macbook won't load any google related webpages, but it works with any other webpage I've ever visited.
    iTunes Store and Mac AppStore are also having issues ( With iTunes Store giving me -50 error code).
    My Macbook is up-to-date, with the latest software installed as of Thursday.
    I also own a HP DeskPC running Windows 8 and it loads google and google-related webpages completely.
    I have Safari and just uninstalled Chrome thinking reinstalling would solve the problem. Neither one of the browsers was able to open Google and it's sites.
    Measuring my computer knowledge from 1 to 10, I'd say from 5-6.
    Ask any questions you'd like and I'll try to answer them, and please help me.

    Double-click the line of text below to select it, then copy it to the Clipboard (command-C):
    www.google.com
    Launch the Network Utility application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Network Utility in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    Select the Lookup tab and paste into the address field (command-V). Press return. Post the output that appears below – the text, please, not a screenshot.
    Step 2
    Select the Ping tab and do the same. Please enter the same input as you did in Step 1. Don't use the output of Step 1 as input to Step 2.
    Note: Some browsers and mail clients will automatically complete a domain name such as "www.example.com" to a URL, such as http://www.example.com. That will interfere with the test. If necessary, edit the input in the Network Utility window to remove any added characters.

  • Why safari can't open google and google related sites

    hi, I rebooted my 13' macbook(silver) with 10.5.8 few days ago.  I'm using Safari Version 5.0.6 (5533.22.3). Like 2-3 days ago google sites stopped working on safari all of sudden, all the other sites work alrght. Plz help?? Oh yes and I also installed a app Candybar to customize the dock(guess wouldnt hav to do anything with google). Any answers plz??

    From your Safari menu bar click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 7 buttons, click Reset.
    If that didn't help, third party add ons often create incompatibiilty issues with the Mac OS X.
    Open a Finder window. Select your Home folder in the Sidebar on the left.
    Now open the Library folder then the Application Support folder.
    Move the CandyBar folder to the Trash. (Don't empty the Trash.)
    Restart your Mac, launch Safari, try Google.
    If it's ok, then go ahead and empty the Trash. You also need to go to ~/Library/Preferences.
    Move the com.panic.CandyBar3.plist file to the Trash.

  • Google search site switch

    After typing a site in the google search pane (on the right side) and pressing return, it gets changed and a numerical site address and completely different site window comes up. The same site comes up on different searches.
    I've run Macscan and have found no problems.
    How do I correct/eliminate this?

    Sounds like you downloaded something that's causing this. Take a look at this Macworld article and see if it applies to you:

  • I recently built a new computer, and I cannot load any google affiliated sites on it.

    Ok this is really weird, I build a new computer and everything else on it works, BUT I cannot load most google site and a bunch of other random sites.
    I can load this website, twitter, my hotmail, pretty much everything else.
    I can load google searches, but not any of the sites that is redirects to.
    no youtube.
    I have already turned off proxies, cleared cache, cookies, cleared all history, rebooted multiple times, tried it in IE, tried it in Safe Mode.
    It is not my internet, because I can load the sites on my phone and old computer fine.
    It gives me the error message "connection to server was reset while the page was loading"
    What is going on?!

    Hi!
    It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Safari and google plus site issues.

    Safari and google plus crashes when I go to the google plus website, but it works with my other browser apps. Help? I am using the mac retina display.

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    Step 1
    For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if Safari crashed, you would enter "Safari" (without the quotes.)
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    ☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    ☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    In the Console window, select
              DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
    (not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
    I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
    If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

  • Something called inbox downloaded from a google map site and incorporated itself into firefox and I don't know how to find it to get rid of it. It is messing up firefox. in English

    The app is named "in-box". It has become a part of "firefox"
    I was trying to print a map off the web and a window popped up saying I needed in-box to do it right. I left the site, immediately, but it downloaded to my computer. I closed the download window and didn't click on it. But the next time I loaded firefox, "in-box" had taken control of firefox and had it's name splashed all over and the "firefox' name was small and hardly noticable.
    Do I throw my firefox app out and download a new one?

    When I clicked on the second site mentioned, I got such EXPLICIT, step-by-step directions!!! Thank you so much. I'd been wondering what that window was that kept popping up with the Firefox icon and that other funny thing. The word *install* was never mentioned. Pictographs were never my thing.
    When I looked under the initial system requirements, it said that OS X 10.4.5 and higher were good for 5.0. I didn't check further. Under your advice, I'll go with the older version. Thank you for taking the time to help me.

  • Connecting to 74.50.117.107 appears in firefox bottom right or bottom left side on google.ca site why?

    hello, this sounds like a problem possibly caused by malware on your pc. please go to ''firefox > addons > extensions'' & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc). also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and do a full scan of your system with the security software that you have in place and different other tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] & [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner].

  • Problem Loading images in Google/Mapping sites

    I have recently bought an iMac, and find that when I search using Google Images, the thumbnails do not load, and the "loading" icon stays pretty much indefinitely.
    I also have problems when using mapping in Multimap/Bing/Google Earth, in that the images again do not load properly much of the time.
    This is extremely frustrating as these are functions that I use all the time. I downloaded Google Chrome to see if the problem was in Safari, and got the same result, so the problem appears to be in the operating system.

    I have since found this thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2199926&start=0&tstart=0
    ...which suggested that the problem is with the router firewall, and suggests adjusting it. Mine's a Belkin (ADSL Modem with Wireless G Router), which seems to only have an "on/off" option on the firewall.
    I tried turning it off, and the images now seem to load normally. However I am not happy about leaving the router with no firewall... anyone got any ideas for more specific configuration of the firewall?
