Find out what pages have been trawled by typing >>> site:www.tenerifeforum.org (http://www.tenerifeforum.org) <<< into Google search - from what I can see there are hundreds of pages that have been indexed.

Remember the 'site:' no space before the domain name.

And my Airband radio frequencies in Tenerife thread that I put on .org from day one is number 2 in Google - second only to the same thread on .com :)

I posted yesterday that just putting "Tenerife" into UK Google brought up the forum on page one - does again today, one place higher

Results may vary depending on which Google is used (.co.uk or .es, or some other).
Also, this early on, it's probably jumping up and down a bit. Should stabilize the coming weeks.
Google is also suspicious, and the fact that the site is so new is penalized. I've never heard about any site being on page 1 after only a couple of weeks online - and probably not Google either - so their system may flag our Forum as a site trying to manipulate the system... hopefully not for long, though.
