I added this text to htaccess but it still gives me this warning, and none of the bots access my forum. I think I did something wrong, I tried searching for my forum on google doesnt do a thing.

Thanks for your help,
Tim, forum.svitech.net

1 - submit your site to google and yahoo
2 - it takes some time to get indexed, how old is your site ?

2 days old, I just got the domain

also is it considered for my forum to be submitted (forum.svitech.net) if my main site (svitech.net) is submitted

So what is the problem? Have patience.

One of my sites wasn't indexed for a month or so. Be patient are there any links to your forum on other forums?

Have you renamed htaccess.txt to .htaccess ??

It takes time for search engines to index your site. You need to create content and build backlinks - the Google SEO plugin won't magically get your site indexed.
