Hi !
I have a question for you today :
i have put the url of one of my website in a sig file that I use on a forum I often go to. This has led Google to index my site.
The thing is, google has indexed only my homepage, not the rest of the site.
So, my wiestion is, should I go to google and submit the url of my sitemap or should I just wait for google to index the rest of the site and do nothing about it?
Thank you in advance for your help!

From just a quick look, your site is getting indexed. Google has about 39 pages indexed.
One suggestion I'd make is that you gain some additional links to your site. DMOZ.org, JoeAnt, and a couple of other directories may help in keeping your site visible.

A site map is a page with plain text links to all the pages on your site, or in the case of large sites, either to all the pages in a section of the site, or all the main pages of the various sections. It should be kept to a maximum of about 100 links per page.
They're very beneficial for users, especially if you don't offer a site search feature, and they're great for spiders: you put a text link from your home page to your site map, and the spider is then able to index all of your pages in one shot.

The site is online for only a few days? Generally Google won't have your inner pages indexed for a month or two.
