How new are the site? How you added your sites to googles search engine?

Alas google can not be rushed it will pick your sites up eventually.

Did you add the URL’s at Google’s website?
http://www.google.com/addurl/?continue=/addurl

If you did, it can take some time before the google spider will index your site.

do not manually add or submit, put a link to the new websites on an existing site and have it get crawed into google. it takes a few days. If you do not have links to those sites even if you add them manually, they will fall out of the index.

You are diffinently not crawed. You also need to setup you sitemap in google webmaster tools and get you site google verified, that will help get it crawed and tell google that the site is there.

you also need to fix this
<meta name=”description” content=”Joomla – the dynamic portal engine and content management system” />
<meta name=”keywords” content=”Joomla, joomla” />
<meta name=”Generator” content=”Joomla! – Copyright (C) 2005 – 2007 Open Source Matters. All rights reserved.” />

your site is not optimized for search engine rankings in any way at ll

you may want to post at the sef forums
