IWeb images not showing on google image search

I've created an iWeb website but can't find any of my images on google image search, although the site appears on web search. I've created new sitemaps 4 days ago, tagged the images with iWeb SEO... I've made two separate pages of images only, not the photo album pages which I think are difficult to search / tag.
Does anyone know how long it takes Google image search to list your images. It already has listed my website on web / text search for sometime.

Do sub-pages of your site appear? I'm wondering whether your images aren't being found because the sub-pages in which they reside are not being found...
One of the biggest problems with iWeb is the way it creates your navigation bars. Instead of using standard HTML which search engines can use to correctly find all files on your website, it uses Javascript which makes it extremely hard for search engines to scan and index your website properly.

  • Business catalyst site is not showing up on web searches

    I built my site in Muse and published directly from Muse onto Adobe Business Catalyst. It has been a couple of months and this site is not showing up on web searches. I believe it has something to do with my Business Catalyst settings. Frustration has set in and I'm turning to this commuity to seek direction. The site is edgeadvertising.ca
    Should I be looking at Googles webmaster tools?

    Hi edgydoug1,
    You have a challenging case since "Edge Advertising" appears to be a common business name with many other established websites for "Edge Advertising" or "Cutting Edge Advertising" businesses around the world.
    First, I'm going to contradict Gaurav. I may be interpreting what I see on Google incorrectly, but it looks to me as though Google has indexed your site. It's a one page site. Correct?
    A few things you'll want to do to improve the chances searchers will find your site:
    1) Set the Page Title for your page in the Page Properties dialog. I recommend setting it to your business name. You might consider including Winnepeg in the page title, since that will increase the odds that someone looking for "Edge Advertising" in your area will find you, rather than the Edge Advertising in Washington, D.C., Tampa Bay, Fairport, NY, Houston Texas, etc.
    2) You might consider putting your contact information where your copyright currently is.
    3) Enter keywords for your page in the Page Properties dialog Metadata panel. Be sure to include Winnepeg and Manitoba (spelled out), along with your business name and the services you provide.
    4) Pay special attention to where you apply h1, h2, h3 tags via paragraph styles. You should probably make the main "Edge Advertising" title the h1 for the page.
    There are two primary factors to SEO, indexing and page ranking.
    Indexing is about making sure your pages have content that corresponds to what your prospective customer will be searching for. This generally means choosing ~3 search phrases and doing what you can to be sure those phrases and the words in those phrases are used in your site. Your site has quite a bit of live text content, so you're probably doing well but you'll want to think about search phrases and see how well they correspond to words and phrases in your content.
    With a single page site you're limited to a single page title and no filename for the HTML file (since it will be index.html), so you'll want to make sure the page title is good and you make good use of h1, h2, h3 tags. You may also want to add alt tags to your images (if you haven't already). And keywords in your metadata.
    Page ranking is largely about the number of other sources (websites, twitter, facebook, blogs, etc.) that contain links into your site. If lots of other sites are referring to your site, your page ranking will be higher relative to other sites with similar page content.
    Again, given the business name is not unique and many of the other businesses with the same name are likely to offer the same services, it's going to be difficult to differentiate your site to web searchers. You'll want to make sure the geographic location of your business is prominent along with the principals and anything else that may be unique to your business (that also known to web surfers).
    Finally, when you make a change to your site, if you submit your sitemap.xml file to Google using Webmaster Tools it theoretically will encourage Google to re-index your site sooner, though there's no guarantees how long it will take.

  • I have just downloaded a free app and there is no icon and it will not open from the list even tho it appears to have downloaded and the "open" button is available.  Does not show up when I search for it.  Plenty of memory . . .

    I Have an iPad mini running iOS 7.1.2,  I downloaded a new app and it's icon does not appear anywhere ( have ~ 180 apps so not at limit) and it won't open from the purchased apps list.  It does not show up when I search for it so can't open t that way either.  It doesn't require iOS 8.  Can't delete and reinstall, cause not icon.  This is not a normal "app won't open" question.  it doesn't start the. Stop it just doesn't seem to exist.  Any help is appreciated

  • Podcast not showing up in itunes search after 1 week

    i submitted my podcast with one episode and it was accepted on 17 july. i am able to get to it in the itunes store by using the url as provided in the email.
    iTunes Store Welcome
    Dear Podcast Owner
    Your podcast, located at [ http://feeds.feedburner.com/meterdown ], has been approved. You should expect to see it in iTunes within the next few hours. When it's available, you will be able to access it with the URL below.
    http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=260194221
    i have put an icon with that url in my blog (meterdown.wordpress.com) and that works fine. people are taken to the podcast in the itunes store and can subscribe.
    however when i search the store, my podcast is not turning up either by podcast name (meter down) or by author/artist name (kabi) or by keyword (taxi, bombay, hindi).
    I can ping using the podcast ID (id=nnn) and it returns the podcast feed url (http://feeds.feedburner.com/meterdown) and the podcast ID.
    it doesn't list an episode however. is it supposed to?
    my main question is "why am i not showing up in the search?"
    is there something wrong in my xml? I host at switchpod and run it thru feedburner and I use the feedburner feed.
    i have read and read the forums here, feedburner, podcast alley and also am emailing switchpod support. still can't figure it out.
    thanks

    ssukotto,
    Thanks for the information. What you mention is boilerplate that is automatically sent when a new podcast is approved. I also quoted it like scripture before diving deeper into researching this issue.
    The research into this problem suggests that there is a minimum number of podcasts in order to be included in the search index (or at least the search results) whether it's undocumented or unintentional.
    Case in point, Meter Down posted his first complaint that his podcast hadn't shown up in the search even after a week (far outside the 24-48 hours you mention and that is documented)..that was a week ago. A total of at least two weeks that his podcast could not be found by searching by the exact title. His podcast showed up search within a day after adding his second episode (yesterday).
    Jerry Pine posted July 17 that his podcast "Everything Algae" had been approved July 13 but couldn't be found by searching...even by name. July 28th, he added a second episode as a test...and his podcast became searchable.
    There are several others who went for days or weeks without being listed in search results by even searching for their exact podcast title...common trait between all of them was that they only had one episode. They added a second episode and within the day they show up in search results.
    There are others that had newly submitted podcasts whose podcasts showed up within the 24-48 hours timeframe...but they had at least two episodes.
    I'm just providing the facts...could be coincidence that they just happened to be searchable just after posting a second episode.
    I'd invite you to read through and share with the iTunes podcast developers the several thread from various people who have reported problems with having a searchable podcasts and draw your own conclusions.

  • Copy of Application does not show " My accounts" in search show

    Hi
    I am using CRM 4.0
    I have copied the application CRMM_ACCOUNTS through blueprint application builder using save as
    The new application does not show "My accounts" in search show
    It is just showing "My favorites"
    Can somebody please tell me the reason for it or how to bring "My accounts" in search show
    TIA
    Asad

    May be while copying the application "My Accounts" is not copied.
    But you can create one by saving the Query.
    Seelct "My Account" in the Find DDLB while in adv search and save the query as "My accounts".
    It will be added to the SHOW DDLB.
    Cheers, Raj

  • Iweb site working great but blog not showing in Google Search

    Not sure how to get my iweb blog to show up in Google searches.  I am using iweb seo tool, and all my other pages on the site are searchable on Google, but the blog entries are not. It's been a month or more.  Is this something that's happening on the blog pages only because I"m using my ftp and not publishing through mobileme?  Not necessary that I have comments, but I would like the blog entries to be searchable.  Thanks!

    iWeb SEO Tool allows you to add the title tag and meta descritption for the Google entry...
    http://www.iwebformusicians.com/Search-Engine-Optimization/Tags.html
    To get the spiders to this info you need to give them a sitemap with all the URLs to crawl. Blog HTML files are buried in a sub folder so you need to provide the path.

  • Map does not show in google search results page

    Normally when I searched for a type of business on google, a small map showed up beside the search results. Unfortunately, I did something weird on my mousepad that froze my computer and after reboot, the map box was gone. And even more unfortunately, I use the silly sync function so now, none of my comps are getting the map.
    Is there a way to get the little mappy box back, or am I forever doomed?

    I'm not sure how this could be a Firefox setting, but I would try the "usual" first:
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
    In case one of your extensions is involved, could you test the page in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
    * "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run
    After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
    Any difference? If that helps, it could be that you selected to block that element in one of your add-ons.

  • Pages not showing up in web search

    I am a newbie to DW 8 (I am a photographer).
    Like everyone, I would love to find my pages in a web search
    with google or yahoo, but they are not showing up.
    Here is an example of the info (from the web page) for one of
    my pages (classes I teach):
    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01
    Transitional//EN"
    http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
    <html>
    <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;
    charset=iso-8859-1">
    <title>Digital photography classes with Richard
    Sjolund</title>
    <link href="file:///Scanner-1/Dream Program and
    sites/ws2.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
    <style type="text/css">
    <!--
    .style1 {color: #FF0000}
    .style2 {color: #0000FF}
    .style3 {
    color: #000066;
    font-weight: bold;
    the title is correct- anad what I want. But, if I search on
    that title information - I find nothing.
    Is the information better off in something other than the
    page title?
    Here is the web site:
    http://www.naturephotostudio.com
    many thanks.
    Dick

    How long has the site been up? If you search for this
    Photography Shows
    Richard Sjolund it comes up first in google.
    Search for this Richard Sjolund was born in the Upper
    Peninsula of Michigan
    and it comes up as duplicate content an other website
    http://www.artsiowacity.com/artist/RSjolund/rsjolund.htm
    so could be a
    problem from the search engines point of view. Hard to say
    looks like a lot
    of competition in this field.

  • Iweb site not showing up in firefox version 3.0

    i recently published my iweb site to a folder and put it up on a hosting site, it used to be at .mac, but well...
    anyway the photo album part of the pages is not showing up in the firefox at my work: 3.0
    but it works fine in safari...
    any suggestions?
    www.thebeautyseeker.com

    I'm having the same problem. I just published a blog with photo pages, but the photos do not load using Firefox 3.0. They show just fine using Safari. I've not tried it yet with Explorer, but friends who have logged in have not complained about not seeing the photos, so I suspect the problem is specific to Firefox.
    Anyone have an idea what the problem might be?

  • Help please.. .iweb will not show pages anymore

    have 2 different full sites built and have had no problem in iweb 09.. until now. had moved pages and was publishing back to folder when . . . . it wouldn't publish... then i went to open pages in iweb and it will not show any pages or any site. i can open iweb, but the directory will not come up...
    even tried to restore the application .... no go.... i now have 2 sites and, oh, about 25-plus pages lost somewhere..
    any ideas?
    thanks!

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Try the following:
    1 - close iWeb.
    2 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder.
    3 - go to your User/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete the contents.
    4 - reboot.
    5 - launch iWeb and see if there's any improvement.
    If that doesn't help continue:
    6 - move the domain file from your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder to the Desktop.
    7 - launch iWeb, create a new test site and save.
    8 - go to the your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and delete the new domain file.
    9 - move your original domain file from the Desktop to the iWeb folder.
    10 - launch iWeb and try again.

  • How can I restore icons for apps to my iPod Touch? After the OS upgrade, I had to reload apps. Some apps now do not show (can find in search but I want the icons back).

    I upgraded to iOS 5.1 and had to reload all my apps. They take more than the max allowed pages so I had some in folders prior to upgrade. Now some do not appear. I can search but they are commonly used apps & I want to restore the icon to the screen. How can they be restored? I now have enough in folders that there is room for all the icons.

    Just checked my info, I have an 8gb iPod Touch, 4G, using Version 6.0 (10A403)

  • Images are not showing in Google Reader for some websites, others are fine

    Some blogs show images in Google Reader, some do not. I can click on the blog subject and go to that blog directly in another tab and I see the images just fine, just not in the reader.

    See:

  • Background image on iweb site not showing

    I created a web site using iWeb sometime ago. I used all of the templates provided with the app. Since "me" has come along, all the content on my page displays, BUT the background image on ALL of the pages no longer shows. I republished the site to see if that would fix the problem, but no dice... Does anyone have any suggestions?

    I am searching the boards here, because I am having the same problem. My husband's site had dropped the background image from just one of the pages. I re-built that page for him, and it was fine. Now I'm having the same problem with mine. Again I rebuilt the initial page with the error, but now multiple pages say they're missing the background jpg file. What's up with this? And how do we get it back without having to re-build each darn page???
    I have made no changes to my computer. No new updates. Just one day it was there, and the next day it was gone. I am frequently accessing my website to make updates (at least weekly), so is this just some weird glitchy thing?
    Thanks!

  • Images not showing up in keyword searches in Bridge CS6

    Using Bridge CS6, I'm dropping in stock photos (JPEG) and tagging them with persistent keywords. When it comes time to do a search, a couple of these images are being skipped in the results. Other images with the same keywords are being returned, but not these few offenders.
    I've tried resetting Bridge and purging the central Cache.
    Any idea why some files would be invisible to the find function?

    I've performed the search using both the search field in the top right corner, and using the Find command.
    I'm searching the proper source folder, searching for "Keywords" "Containing" <search term>
    Matching "any criteria", searching all subfolders and including non-indexed files.
    The problem is, if I have 3 files with a keyword of Cathedral or cathedral — delimited by semicolons — a search for "cathedral" in the above manner will return 2 of those files, but not the third.
    It looks like I have some problem files that appear in the regular Bridge browser window and have viewable, persistent keywords, but won't appear in search results. They open fine, and the keyword metadata is visible in Photoshop. I'm just wondering if anyone else has experienced something similar.
    If it helps, it's an iStock image: iStock_000025903682Small
