I checked 10 .com DCs and 5 different foriegn language Googles. The results are the exact same. The pages can not be found anywhere. My index page does fine. It's #1 for my domain name and ranks well for a variety of phrases. Now, this was interesting. I searched for "versions of widgets" and "my domain name". I was sure that my homepage would rank, since it has the text "versions of widgets" on it. Instead, I get a long list of pages which links to my site (and also contains the "versions of widgets"). But, none of the pages from my site appear. It would seem that not only is the content of "versions of widgets" been banned but also any chance of ranking for that term with it. I'm not even sure what to make of that discovery. No, the design of the site has been the same for almost 3 years now.
Dial-D when you do do a search for your keywords in the various DC's how does it compare to the default Google?
Also what is the situation of your index page with regard to this?
If you do a search for (keyword yourdomain) without the .com how does the page rank?
Have you made navigational changes to these pages?
