I'm not sure if I have edited this correctly, my forum still seems devoid of Bots, and I cannot find myself on google yet ?
 
Well first off, You will not just "get on Google" right away, It takes time. And it looks right to me I may be mistaken though.

What exactly are you trying to do? :|

Okay

Well in there I have my site metatags, keywords and favicon, installed I think in the correct place in my overall header file.

I'm a bit new to this and just wanted confirmation I had followed the instructions I was given correctly

Thanks, thats what I thought, but I'm a bit paranoid about getting things wrong, I've already messed up one installation 😳
 
SEO is a great tool, and that looks right as far as I can see.

Try submitting your website to google by hand for once. These search bots are a little shy for new websites you know. 🙂

I've doine that, guess I must be a bit impatient 😉
 
The Google bots index around 3 billion sites a day (guesstimation) so the chance of a new site will be hard to get on instantly. You will almost never be at the top of Google. Just a fact.

You are on a excellent start though, great overall header! When a site is bookmarked, the favicon appears and it will stand out so you will have high likley returns.

Also, Google your link, and you will find it (hopefully)
 
If the Google BOT just focused on your forum then no other site would be added to Google. 🙁 And, Yeah. You did do the overall header thing correctly. It doesn't really matter how you order it.
