as Im sure you can,t help but notice were in the process of upgrading the site and several members are working to clear out glitches and add features, but I don,t see a great deal of posts or traffic, any ideas gentlemen???
 
It's going to take some time for the robots to find this new forum and start crawling the pages. I just check and saw the first robot here since it went live. The TBucketeers forum always has between 8-12 robots crawling, we need more bots here.

One thing that might help is.... it should not require logging into the old forum to get the Upgrade Message to find this place. That link is our life line for now. Most people at this time are more likely to find the old forum.
 
It probably would help to make the announcement on Digital Corvette Forum Grumpy.

It took me several attempts to get logged back on here .
Google Cache 3 option was the link for me.
 
I go away for one afternoon and this is what happen :p. joke.
Search engine bot need some time to index the page and add to the search engine before they will be available.
What we need to do is to click this site on the search engine(google, bing, yahoo etc) as much as we can. So the site will come first when searching online ;)
Exemple: say i search for, detonation and compression ratio chart. many result will come up.. but if i click only the link for this site(as many time as i want.. :) ), it will help it to get on top for next search.
It's like fooling the search engine so it think there is alot of traffic to this site.

Mathieu,

My favorite person if all of forum land, can you give us some search words
and tips so we can all line up like wooden soldiers and perform our duties
to our captains amazement!!!!!!!!o_O

Seriously, I have not been able to do a search on Google and get a hit our forum.... can you help???
 
Use this on the search bar:
site:garage.grumpysperformance.com
or copy paste topic title or parts of post.

Google still dont show any result, i think we have to wait.(but i re-submitted the new sub.domainname to google) am thinking -there is no direct (clickeable)link to the new sub-domain url (garage.grumpysperformance.com vs the old forum.grumpys...) the search engine bot can't get to the new board from the old site page.

bing.com and yahoo show 2 result so far. duckduckgo(my favorite) dont show any result going to submit it there too. i did not check for other search engine
