About 1.5 months ago I had to change my domain name. My site (new site)at the time was gaining momentum on every new crawl. I went from page 72 to 63 to 52 to 44, to 36 to 24 in every sequential crawl. So things where looking good till I had to change the domain. I made the change, did all the redirects (i think I did it right) and now about 6 weeks later my site is acting real strange still on the search results.

I am usually not even on the map. But sometimes I am on page 54 or so. It is very random and never consistent. I figured after 6 weeks it would settle down but as of today it isn't even on the map.

Is it to soon to worry about it? Could someone look at my redirects? How long should the redirects be in place? I am really hoping this thing just settles into its own but after 6 weeks I am getting a littel worried I messed up somewhere. And most of my content pages are showing up as supplemental. I just can't figure it out.

Any help would be much appreciated.

What was the old URL? I'll check your redirects.

Well further looking into I am thinking that the redirect maybe wrong and that i am getting duplicate content from the old site. when I do a site: poconoareamls.com which is the old site it seems all the pages that were indexed are still indexed, is this causing me to have duplicate content? does that mean my redirect is wrong if those pages still show up?

All help is very appreciated!

It will take time to loose all the previously cached pages, also in terms of the new domain, and passing benefit via redirect (If done correctly) it will be months, not weeks to catch back up to where you were.
