Tips for Getting Your Website into Google

I can only ever recall one time when I actually submitted a site to Google to get indexed, this was when I first started out and thought is was the best and only way of getting your website into Google , although I did get indexed it took along time around 3 months before I got out of the Google sandbox.



These days I can pretty much get a new page indexed in around 24 hours, a completely new site in around 48-72 hours, which is so much better than my original 3 months or 2190 hours give or take.

What is the secret of how to get listed in Google ?

As I mentioned above I do not submit pages to search engines

All we need do is to show Google how important your website is, and they will want to get you indexed.

I’ve listed my preferred methods for getting your website into Google are ..

Method 1
Obtain back links from higher ranking sites.
This generally involves a linking campaign which means finding similar sites to yours from Google, sending them an email asking if they would like to exchange links, this can be tough as many site owners/admin’s will not want to link to a lower ranking site as they are worried it may lower the importance of the their site in the eyes of Google, but if you persevere it will only take a single site with a page rank or 3 or above to open the Google door for you.

If you cannot get anyone willing to exchange links, or you’re in more of a hurry to get indexed the next way is to simply purchase some links, this only needs to be done for a few weeks until your established in Google.

Links can be purchased from sites such as eBay or by searching for PR links for sale.

Method 2
Article directories; Create articles around the subject of your site and submit them to sites such as EzineArticles or Articledashboard add a link to your site from them, and then wait for the article to be approved, Google will recognise this and you should be listed.

Method 3
Setup a Blogger, Squidoo or Wordpress account and create a few articles, it does not need to be too much, just a few simple pages with links to your site.

Method 4
Forums and authority sites, many forums allow a link in a post so if you subscribe to a forum, answer a few questions, and you will have a few links back to your site.

The beauty of forums is not only do you get a back link, but you will also get traffic from the site, so make sure the page with your link is inline with the content of the forum, other wise it could be considered just spamming links.

Add your sites link to a page in Wikipedia telling the world about your site.

As you can see above everything revolves around sites linking back to your site.

If you manage do more than one of the above that’s even better, you will not only get your site listed in Google, but will also increase your sites importance, which means your site will get listed higher in Google’s rankings, this then means more site exposure and more visitors.

Remember to Google your website every few days to see if you are in yet, the easiest way to do this is to simply type site:domain name (for example site:computer-adviser.com) and you will not only see if your site is in Google, but also how many pages are indexed too.

Another important aspect of getting pages indexed in Google is to setup a Google Sitemap, this provides a text view of all the pages listed in your website, this makes it very easy for Google (and other search engines) to see when you add or make changes to your websites content.
