Default Search engines & Priuschat

Nothing comes up using a couple of search engines. Could it be a result of the site being new?

Using several different keywords, I got both Yahoo groups and Priusonline.com but not Priuschat.com.

New, yes, but also because the page www.priuschat.com is actually just forwarding you to www.priuschat.com/forums/portal.php, and google gets a little whiny when it comes to that. Google only really likes static pages and pages that start at the root. Priuschat is neither of those.

One solution may be to put a little static page at www.priuschat.com and have that lead into /forums/portal.php. That's what www.spyderchat.com does, and since most people simply bookmark the forums or the portal page, I don't think it would be a big deal to do this.

Any thoughts?

Found it today on Google - it found the Redirect page I have set up:

http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navc...F-8&q=priuschat

Look at the bottom of the list.
