Hi,

I am trying to index http://www.balfour-manson.com but not having much luck. None of their pages seem to have extensions but I have got the scan pages with no extensions box ticked.

At the end it says no extensions scanned 1.

Where am I going wrong?

Thanks

Ed

Whoever coded this web site was trying to be too smart.

When you download the home page (index.html), this is the HTML I get.


<html>
<head></head>
<body onLoad="location.href='/home';"></body>
</html>

And that is what Zoom and other search engines will index if you start spidering from the site root. Nothing.

If you start the spider at the real home page, URL http://www.balfour-manson.com/home it will work much better.
