Inktomi listing

[michaelday]

I have paid for the inclusion of my site with position tech two days ago. How do I find out if my site was included and what are it's rankings?

Thanks

Sorry don't know anything about spinbox, but if you only submitted the site 2 days ago it's still early day's yet, it normally takes around 3/4 days

It has now been 5-6 days since I have submitted my site to Inktomi. It is still not indexed. There is however unintentional mirror site listed. It is a page that used to have same IP address as my page that was getting regulary spidered by Inktomi and when someone clicks on it it comes to my home page. I have contacted the owner of that site and problem has been fixed, however it is still indexed in Inktomi. The owner said that he was no longer using that domain and sys adm never changed name servers. Can that be the reason for my site not being indexed and what should I do about it?

Thanks

To MichaelDay - go to the subscribers area (the place where you submitted your pages) and click on the 'Page Listing'. You should see a 'report' on keywords people are using to find your site and the average positioning. Positioning & page indexing varies in the engines.

Also, if you did good job optimizing your site for certain kw's/phrases, you should be able to find your pages by searching that information ... isn't that how your clients should be finding you too? :)
