xbmc.org delisted from google? Just do a search for "xbmc" on google.com see top hits

Romey-Rome · 2009-05-31, 00:26

Google doesn't return results from xbmc.org anymore. Even searching for xbmc.org doesn't return anything from the site....

What's up with that?

Yeh, but are any of them actually to xbmc.org, or just sites that mention xbmc.org?

Just do a google search for site:xbmc.org windows and you should get about 29,000 hits with the word windows just from XBMC.org.

If you search for xbmc on google then xbmc.org should be at the top, but it's not even on the first page, that's the problem.

Probably due to us blocking *google* in robots.txt

Hopefully that's not needed now that we found our real performance problems.

Xbmc.org isn't on the front page, but xbmc.tv is. Same site, as far as I can tell. It isn't the first entry for me, though, the wikipedia entry for XBMC is.

Noticed this as well, hope you get it fixed.
