Problem with google sitemaps

Off Topic

Update: I have been reading a bit on this and since the sitemap url was blocked in the old robots.txt file, it can take up to 2 weeks for google to index the now unblocked url, so patience is the key here, just thought I would let everyone know in case you have done the same .

Problem with google sitemaps

Off Topic

Well, google has updated my robots.txt on google tools, it shows correctly now, but I'm submitting 544 pages and only 41 are getting indexed, where before I was submitting 480 and 440 where getting indexed, where have I gone wrong? Am I being penalized? Thats the only thing I can think of.

Now I'm debating whether to use a sitemap or not :P.

Problem with google sitemaps

Off Topic

According to google tools, there was 3 sitemap warnings with my site.

It was trying to access the sitemaps from /data/media/0/0/ but robots.txt didn't allow acess to the data directory, I have fixed the issue, but now I have a bigger problem, instead of waiting for google to crawl my site again with the now fixed robots.txt file, I had a brain cramp and decided to delete my old sitemap.xml on google tools and resubmit a new one, the end result is my site went from having 440 pages indexed to just having 41 now in two days , can anyone tell me if this is normal and if it's just part of the process with google?

sitemap errors on google tools

Using Jamroom

According to google tools, there is 3 sitemap errors in my site.

It's trying to access the sitemaps from /data/media/0/0/ but robots.txt doesn't allow acess to the data directory, so I added this to the robots.txt file:

Allow: /data/media/0/0/sitemap1.xml
Allow: /data/media/0/0/sitemap2.xml
Allow: /data/media/0/0/sitemap3.xml

but still getting the errors, any ideas?

Thanks

Eddy

Is it possible to link the Facebook player?

Ok bud, all good, thank you.

Is it possible to link the Facebook player?

Using Jamroom

I think I'm explainingg my self wrong Brian, when someone clicks on the player, the flash player opens and starts to play the song, on the player it shows the name of the artist/song, when clicking on that it restarts the song, was wondering if it's possible to take the user to the artist/song page instead, does this make any sense?

Right now if one clicks on the artist/song name on the player, it replays the song, wanted the user to go to the artist/song page instead if they click on it.

Or on the artist/song title on the actual player?
