Re-Indexing Timetable

Any guesses as to when the SE's will display our listings again.

We made a vatal error on our robots.txt page which cause only our URL to be shown on google and MSN (no title or description).

Any guesses as to when the SE's will display our listings again? Our site is a strong PR7, so spiders frequent the site.

It took a few weeks for the SEs to remove our listings, I'm hoping they include them a bit faster.

They will almost certainly index them faster - but things won't be 'back to normal' for some time, quite possibly weeks.

That's on the basis that the absence was short (a day or three?). Much longer than that, and problems could be greater, going by similar errors reported in the past.

I'm not sure there's a lot you can do, but a Google site map certainly won't hurt!

Thanks for response. Our main goal is to get the index page back to normal. Thats all we care about. The error had been in the robots.txt file for nearly 2 months. The titles and descriptions have been gone for nearly 2 weeks, so it is not something that was taken care of promptly.

Just got relisted. 46 hours. We did email google last night, so that may have came into play, but I doubt it.
