Monday, August 11th, 2008
Did you know? When your site is presently listed by Google further submission can not speed up matters. In case your site has not been submitted yet, then the page where you ought to submit it can be found if you search with the word ‘Google submit’. Needless to mention, their page would be ranked first but there are several other ways in which your site can be made to get noticed by them.
A successful way to index your site by Google is through important links with other heavy-traffic sites. Using online directories could be the best and fastest way though. Google has the habit of scrutinizing top level directories regularly and when any site has links from these the site also gets noticed quicker.
There are free directories and there are paid subscription directories, it really is a case of you pay your money and you take your choice. Any business directory which operates with the same kind of interest area as your business is the best bet since Google pays a lot of importance to similarity before indexing your site. Your site must be completely relevant to the business directory as both of you work in the same area.
DMOZ, also referred to as an Open Directory is one of the most critical directories where to get listed to be assured of high rankings from Google. To get Google to pick up your site, this is however not the speediest way. It could take over a few weeks or months before DMOZ enlists you. This is because every site submitted is reviewed in person by the category editor and it really depends how far down the queue you are. One critical advice, is before submitting your site to DMOZ, remember to go by their guidelines strictly and comply with every instruction provided.
Another good way to get Google to index your site is through writing articles and submitting them to the article submission sites. All of the article sites (the good ones at least) allow you to include a section called “About the Author” or “Author Resource”. It is at this place that every author leaves the link to his site.
Another benefit of writing articles is that when they are good, other sites find it relevant to use them on their sites. [s19 It is compulsory however that the ‘About the Author’ section is always tagged under your article as this result in your getting a free link. This is one successful way to get picked up by Google and if the articles deal with same subject as your business, then chances of increased traffic to your site are far more.
