I emailed Google a few days ago about my site disappearing from the index. I explained to them that when I searched for my site by domain name, that only the URL displayed and that my description and title were missing.

I also pointed out to Google that when I searched using allinurl: other sites were displayed using my sites URL, title, description, and keywords, in their URL. I gave Google a list of these offending URL's and said that i suspected my site was being hijacked.

Google’s reply is below (names and URL omitted):

Hi Blah Blah,

Thank you for your note. We apologize for our delay in responding to your email.

We searched for your site and found that it is currently included in our search results. To see the results of our search, please visit the following link:

The Google index contains two types of pages: fully indexed and partially indexed pages. Your page is currently partially indexed. Because our robots were unable to completely review its content during our last crawl, your site appears without a cached copy or detailed title. Instead, it's listed by its URL.

We understand the frustration this situation may cause you. We're always working to increase the number of fully indexed pages in our index. You may be able to improve this page's visibility in our search results by ensuring that a number of high-quality sites link to it. While we can't guarantee that pages in our search results will always be fully indexed, "crawler-friendly" pages have a greater chance of being fully indexed.

Guidelines for creating a "crawler-friendly" site are available at http:// Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah

Regards,
The Google Team
