I changed some domain names lately and google fails to index yet... Is there a restriction on the length of domain ? Or on wording of domain name (I have bot in name)?

I used GSA indexer (assumed couple of hours) and google indexer. It has been 2 days now... More curiously... website forum domainname*/forum gets indexed instead..... this is wierd... and crawling does not retrieve all css files for google robot... but that should not matter.
 
No luck also using an addon domain with htaccess to prohibit from following actual sub domain from search engine. Subdomain was also prohibited in google console. I did unprohibit it after just to get back index... just plain wierd difficult question....

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^subdomain\.domain\.net$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^robots\.txt$ robots2.txt [NC,L]
</IfModule>

Should not make a difference... second robots2.txt blocks access.

Did you try pinging services? Many free ones online that will ping your site to the various search engines...
 
You can easily send G spiders to your site in a course of seconds with different methods. Pings, web2.0's etc. etc. So be sure G knows about your site. But would it want to put it into index - it's totally different question. And the answer depends solely on your site quality.
 
Did you sign up to Google webmaster tools? Add and submit a site map.

Thanks.. that is worth a shot definatly... I kinda feel hoosed by this service of google.. even with pinging many did not get indexed.. no confirmation if indexing was done..
 
Yes always have a sitemap fr webmasters, also try getting indexed with Social media signals speeds up the process
 
Ohh okay .. figured out what was wrong.. Indexing is confirmed when you do google queries. The indexing under google search tools and other places will not show your index until after much of the fact.
