Paid for Ink. Inclusion...

But I'm not showing up in partner engines

[Canton]

I submitted about 12 pages to Inktomi via the paid submit about 2 weeks ago. Of course the pages were indexed in 48 hours, but only one is showing up in AOL, Hotbot, MSN, etc.

Any ideas why this is?

Thanks in advance,

It’s really a case of changing the page structure around which is the main advantage of the paid ink route at least your page will get re-spidered and you can see if the changes have a made any difference to your placement.

The page that is ranking are the others like it?

Tigger...it's not that the pages aren't ranking well in the partner sites....they simply aren't there. All pages are similar in nature, and all have been "indexed" according to PositionTech, but one the home page shows up in the partner sites.

Any idea why this would be?

Have you made a search using the [169.207.238.189...]
using the exact search term as your <title> of your page/s?

Canton, I experienced this recently and posted about it. Unfortunately, the thread was quickly removed. All I can say suggest is to lay the heat on the service you paid for inclusion through. Simply put, you paid for the service; they are required to provide it to you.

Stickymail me for more info.

"all pages are similar in nature" could be a problem. I have seen groups of sites of which only one has been included as part of "duplicate removal". Sites with radically different source code but similar/identical visual appearance and/or content will also meet this fate.

You won't get a refund, but like tigger said you can change the sites as much as you want.
