Getting Indexed Quick - And I Mean Quick

OK - so we all want our sites indexed right? How long does it take for search engines to index your site? Months? Weeks? Days?

What if I told you that you can literally start getting exposure within hours - and sometimes even minutes.

After launching my first post just a few hours ago - I also posted about this blog on Yahoo Answers - and in just minutes my post on Yahoo Answers which contained information about my blog and my link got indexed in Google.

Have a look at the screenshot below:



So what does this mean to you?

Are you tired of waiting for the search engines to find your site?



If I wrote this post months ago - I would tell you that to get quickly indexed in Google to do the following:

1. Get incoming links (This will help you gain exposure and Google loves to follow links)
2. Submit your site to Google Webmaster Tools
3. Run a PPC Campaign on your site (This will let Google know you are not a SPAM site)
4. Submit site to directories (DMOZ, Yahoo Directory etc)
5. Submit site to search engines directly

Again - I stress you still follow these methods - but if you want quick results, and I mean within hours or minutes, you want to participate in blogs, social networking sites, etc.,

Remember - once you have created your blog - you want to let all the blog search engines know you exist- so you need to do something which is called 'ping' them.

Every time you add to your blog, make sure you go to http://pingomatic.com/ and 'ping' your site.

Happy blogging.
