Hello,
For some reason Google only has 1/4 or so of my web pages indexed with them at any given time??
I cannot figure out why they don't have all or most of my pages?
I tried many different things like shortening the page file length and putting Bread Crumb Links throughtout the site but it seems it still didn't help.
I have a Framed website and this may be an issue, but I do have links on the frame files going to the 2nd and 3rd levels of my site so the Google bots and crawl the entire site.
Do I need to "Pay For Inclusion" to get fully indexed w/ Google??
Thanks for any help!

Just simply submit every page of your website to Google (http://www.google.com/addurl.html)

As long as you have valid links into your framed area then the Googleboot will find it. I personally would mess around with the multiple submission of your webpages since this might be considered spam.
1. Get rid of frames. Been there, done that. It is bad news if you want to be indexed and have good ranking in SE's.
2. Build popularity with Google by establishing quality, related backlinks.

First off, Google will not penalise you for multiple submissions, although as they state, they are not guarenteed to crawl all pages you submit to them using their form.
I have a website where roughly 50% of links are indexed, however this has increased from 25% over the past few months.
Main reasons:
- Don't put too many links on one page, google won't follow any more than 100 generally.
- Try not to have too long a query string on your links (e.g a whole list of links to pages like "/default.asp?Id=221&z=4324&User=2323") Google will only index so many dynamic links like these because Googlebot has to visit other places too :)
- TIME. Googlebot never indexes a whole website straight away (unless it's very small of course) it can often take many months of Googlebot visiting and re-visiting for him to find all your links.

Hello,
GoogleBot has been visiting my site every day last month, but didn't cached my resent changes to my WebSite.
Would you know why?
Thank you.
