Invite the Spiders Into Your Den...
There are ways to make sure that Google and the other SEs spider all the pages of your website as quickly as possible. Making your site navigation "spider friendly" is essential. This means you need to make changes if at present your navigation buttons are graphics. When the buttons are created from graphics the words are actually not "visible" to a search engine. This type of navigation often also uses javascript, which compounds the problem.
If you don't want to change your site's navigation (it probably cost plenty), then you can create a site plan instead, and place it at the bottom of your pages. This will enable search engines to do their job and will also help visitors to your site.
Once there are no barriers to spiders negotiating your site, they'll slip gracefully from one page to another. In no time at all you'll have all your pages indexed and this will have a positive impact on your overall search engine ranking.

hey hey! How come I haven't discovered your site sooner is surprising to me!
Up until just recently, if someone typed in the name of my blog, I would be the first to appear. Over the past week, I've gone from number one result to buried in the third of fourth page of results...how did this happen? How can I "get back on top"!
thanks!

Hello Jason,
Ranking can slip for any one of a number of reasons. Have you been tweaking? Sometimes words we use can have a major effect now that search engines are introducing algorithms to weed out spammers and the like. Read my post here: http://www.seomemo.com regarding that.
Also, it could be that your competitors have tweaked their sites so that they please the search engines more.
It's impossible to say unless I take a look at your site and those of your competitors.
help! I still haven't any presence on Google; yet I did three weeks ago! Ugh - I went from being the number one listed entry to not within the first fifteen pages...any suggestions?
