Hi all,

New to the groups, but I've searched for a similar case and did not
find any. If I'm repeating someone else's question, feel free to
redirect me to any answers already given.

The (strange) problem is this: after launching http://www.fortunefriends.nl
a few days ago (november 30th 2008) pages where almost instantly
picked up by Google (verified in Webmaster Tools, uploaded sitemap,
etc.). Doing a site:www.fortunefriends.nl query made quite a few pages
show up, and searching for 'fortunefriends' gave us a number 1
position.

Not bad, in just 2 days after launch...

However, today (day 3 after going live), no pages are indexed at all.
Doing a site:www.fortunefriends.nl gives 0 results. How can this be?
Webmaster Tools reveals my sitemap to be okay, but no pages are
indexed yet (but that was also the case right after launch).

Checked with different tools whether some technical error might be
causing this, but still no obvious reason found. I can't imagine
violating any Google rules with this site.

Just one thing that might be of help: I had the beta version of the
site up and running behind a http header login for testing. The
Webmaster Tools reveal that Google tried indexing the site on November
23rd, but that it was given a '401/407 authentication error'. Not sure
if this is relevant, but who know.

Can anyone help? Have I done something to piss of Google in just a few
days after launch, or should I just be more patient for Google to
really index the site?

Any help is much appreciated!

Jeroen
