How come no URLs from my site map are included in Google's Index?

My web site was using noindex/nofollow for a few days while setting it
up. Now it's out of dev status and I've uploaded a site map but it
won't display my pages.

Help!

What site?

A link to my site map: http://xrl.us/oy9y2

Please help...

Links are nto followed from here. Just the text content is indexed.

Your robots.txt file is like this:

User-agent: *
Allow: /
Sitemap: http://www.example.com/sitemap.xml

It should be:

User-agent: *
Disallow:

Sitemap: http://www.example.com/sitemap.xml

Note that techincally Allow: /  is the same as Disallow:  except that
Allow is not part of the robots.txt protocol, whereas Disallow is.

A blank line is needed before the sitemap line.

As things stand rigth now yoru site is not indexed at all.

I suspect the answer is in http://copyscape.com/ .

Thank you for your reply.

I've been using this same robots.txt on about 5 web sites, all with
very high ranks on big keywords and never had any trouble.

But, I have incorporated your suggestion and uploaded a new
robots.txt.

Copyscape? This web site was designed by someone and took me 4 days to
write all text by myself. What Copyscape?

I just ran my URL through Copyscape and the only matches it found were
stuff I have in my RSS parser. Seems very normal to me.

The actual web site content is 100% unique.
