Re-inclusion Request at Google

Jel · 2007-09-15, 12:57 AM

I had an experience a couple of years ago whereby I bought a domain (according to whois it hadn't been blacklisted, wayback showed no prior pages, etc), got it live and linked from a few places, and it never got indexed (can't recall if it was crawled) by G. Waited, waited, waited... nada, so I sent off a reinclusion request. Got the standard form reply and nothing else. After a year it still hadn't been indexed so naturally I let the domain drop.

Just my own experience.

*edited to add:

I assumed at the time, and still do, that the domain *had* been owned before, and blacklisted for some reason.
