In this article I will show you the steps to your new site indexed quickly. With lots of new websites pouring into the Internet on a daily basis, it is absolutely crucial that you as a webmaster of time you invest in your site are indexed.
For many people, always crawling search engine spiders use their contents for the first time one of the hardest things to do. And harder still is the task of getting this back spiders and crawl your content on a regular basis. But alas, it is possible your new site crawled, indexed, and get frequent visits from search engines.
I want to share with you exactly what I went through in order to get my website crawled and indexed so quickly, and hopefully you will find it helpful, insightful, beneficial and inspirational. Without further adieu, let’s get into the nitty gritty of getting your new website indexed quickly.
Create at least 10 pieces of quality content ready to be published before you go live on the web.
I made sure that I have already written, proofread and edit my website content before I bought my domain name and hosting. Since I already had from the niche I wanted to force assigned, I was preparing quality content that would be ready for publication as soon as my site went live. This allowed me to write my equipment website quickly and focus on the design of the site, rather than rush around to “quality” content.
Add in your content and start building your internal link structure.
I think this is a critical mistake that far too many to commit new Webmaster. They explore how their site indexed quickly as they promote their site, and how to get visitors to their site, but they forget to actually develop their website. Indexing, are promoting all the wonderful bonuses and transport, but the quality of your website must always be of paramount importance.
Depending on your site (you an informative Web site, blog or a combination of both), create the necessary Web pages, which are needed for the site, can own. For example, I have these pages from the beginning: “Home”, “blog”, “Article,” “Misc,” “Contact” and “About”. It is advantageous if you already have the basic food information (Contact, About, etc.), so you just throw in the information once you have prepared to publish your website.
Once you create and edit your pages to initiate the process of adding to each other in your pre-defined content and linking the pages. Make sure that every page links to at least one other page in your site and that each page has at least one link pointing to it. This is crucial for supporting these spiders crawl and index the majority of the pages in your site. Make it easy for the spiders by thorough link on your web pages. Make sure that your link structure flows logically – aka, not randomly add links to your Web pages. Make sure that each member of a related fit, and that any link will do for your visitors (and spiders) easier browsing.
Optimize your content for keywords in your niche
Looking back at when I first started my website, I wish I would’ve researched more about how to optimize web pages. Use the Google Keyword Tool to analyze what people are searching for in your niche. Once you have found a few phrases that you think fit your website’s content, start optimizing your pages by strategically placing those keywords throughout your content.
Don’t overstuff your content with those keywords or the spiders will think your website is a bunch of spam. However, make sure you use those phrases (and variations of those phrases) enough to attract attention from the search engines. If it flows well, also make your anchor text (the text that appears for a hyperlink) mimic the keyword(s) highlight the keyword phrases you have chosen. This will help those search engine spiders understand what your content is all about and tell them how to rank it in the respective search engines.
Submit your content to social media sites
Registering account on Social Sites with the same username as your blog’s URL is very effective in getting your blog indexed by Search Engines. Especially for those targeted keywords.
For example, if your blog’s name is Tuto9, it’s a good practice to register the same username at twitter as @Tuto9, and to create a page in Facebook . Having a consistent keyword-username on all major Social Sites will help get your blog indexed faster, and at a later stage it will also help build a “brand” for your blog.
So, get account on major Social Sites for your newly launched blog, namely: Twitter, Facebook (create a page for your blog), Digg, StumbleUpon, Delicious etc. By the way, it’s a good pratice to create a separate Social Sites account for each of your projects. This way you can stay focused and post messages that are related to your project. In the long run, this will help build a community that are like-minded around your project.
Start submitting it to search engines and web directories
This is the point at which you will of us some attention from the Web Spider. I started by submitting my site to the big three search engines: Google, Yahoo and Bing. To link to make things easier for you, each of these concepts is the page that you access in order to submit your site to search engines. Send your main URL for each of these search engines to get started.
The next thing I suggest you do is, is would Google Webmaster Tools. Once again it is highlighted for your convenience (please note that you create a Google Account before you can use their tools). I would also Sign up for Bing Webmaster Tools (you need to create a Hotmail account), while you’re at it. Bing takes longer than Google’s index pages, but it would be prudent to go ahead and sign up for their tools anyway. Has Yahoo! To use their own type of webmaster tools for you.
After you submit your URL to search engines and for the webmaster tools, it is time to build a sitemap for your site signed. This allows the search engines to see and to understand the link structure of your site and, more importantly allows the spiders to your site with more ease and freedom to crawl. You can easily click your own map by clicking here and filling out the necessary information.
You now have all the work (done phew!), Is it time to start submitting your site to some web directories. I’ll go ahead and warn you that there are myriads of directories on the Web, but not all of them necessarily good. Below is a list of directories (both paid and free), I would recommend for the submission of your website.
