New websites are launched ever day with newbies on yahoo answers asking why when they do a search for their website they don’t show up at all. The typcial response that they get is, add your website to google’s index over here http://www.google.com/addurl/?continue=/addurl. But this is not the best solution as you can see google clearly states.

We add and update new sites to our index each time we crawl the web, and we invite you to submit your URL here. We do not add all submitted URLs to our index, and we cannot make any predictions or guarantees about when or if they will appear.

This is actually a newbies best bet, but if you already have a blog or a website and you have the ability to add a link from there to the new site chances are you will get indexed faster. But in most cases newbies don’t have other websites which they can use to add a link to the new site.

There was a period of time that I used to use digital point forums to get my new sites indexed. Being that I was very active and had a lot of fresh posts I would add the links in my signature and within a matter of days my new site would be indexed in google. You have to make sure that the link does not have a rel=”nofollow” tag on it (rel=”nofollow” tells a search engine not to follow the link - more about this some other time.). This again is a luxury that I had being that I had an active account at a forum which allowed me to have links in my signature.

With all of the above options put aside there are still other options available to everyone which will help you get your site get indexed faster. Submit your website to digg.com google bots are practically there all day everyday indexed all the new pages and new links that they find. When their crawlers are there they look at all the new links and crawl them and in turn your new website is now put into  googles index.

What do you do in order to get your sites indexed in google?
