Tip #47: Why Hasn't Google Listed Me?
Again, from Google and also available online. These are some reasons why Google may not list your site.
Your pages are dynamically generated.
Google is able to index dynamically generated pages. However, because their web crawler can easily overwhelm and crash sites serving dynamic content, they limit the amount of dynamic pages they index.
You employ doorway pages.
Google does not encourage the use of doorway pages. They want to point users to content pages, not to doorways or splash screens.
Your page uses frames.
Google supports frames to the extent that it can. Frames tend to cause problems with search engines, bookmarks, emailing links and so on, because frames don't fit the conceptual model of the web (every page corresponds to a single URL). If a user's query matches the site as a whole, Google returns the frame set. If a user's query matches an individual page on the site, Google returns that page. That individual page is not displayed in a frame -- because there may be no frame set corresponding to that page.
If you are concerned with the description of your site as seen by search engines, please read "Search Engines and Frames". It describes the use of the 'NoFrames' tag, which is used to provide alternative content.
Again, this is part of the information Google sent me. I will continue to share it with you as weeks go by.
