My site is an omitted result. O.o

[candysplash]

I've just recently opened http://www.simply-layouts.com, and I just googled simply-layouts.com, and it's there but as a non hosted page, which I understand because the site is new. However, when I click to see the omitted results I get my site with the current title and description except it's under the hosted page as just simply-layouts.com:

Why is this happening? Shouldn't the 'omitted' result be my the first result? :(
Help is appreciated.

That's probably because its new :)
You could go to Google Webmaster Tools -> Tools -> Set preferred domain
Not sure if it works but you could give it a try :)

Thanks Nora. Do you think it'll change when googlebot next crawls my site?

[Nora]

Yeah :)

It just takes a while but until then you could always set your preferred domain to the one without www. :)

Ah great :biggrin: Thanks for all your help. (:

EDIT//
You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Nora again.

You shouldn't allow search engines to think simply-layouts.com and www.simply-layouts.com (http://www.simply-layouts.com) as separate. The following 301 redirect will prevent that not only for Google but also Yahoo and MSN. After you modify the .htaccess file, all URLs will point to the www.simply-layouts.com (http://www.simply-layouts.com) URL.

Add the following code to your .htaccess file and upload to the home directory of your website:


Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^simply-layouts\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.simply-layouts.com/$1 [R=301,L]
