Help Google Find Your Site

Point to note: Any listed site by Google can not be accelerated for listing again, by resubmission. When you search ‘Google submit’ you can find the page where sites are submitted. It is understandable that their page would rank on top of the list but you could attempt several other ways for them to decide on your site.

One good way to get your site indexed quickly by Google is through links from websites that are themselves crawled regularly. Using online directories and there are plenty of them could of course be the best and the most effective way. Directories which are high ranked are regularly checked by Google and site indexing can get done faster if you have links from any of them.

You have a choice between free directories and paid subscriptions and it is entirely up to your budget and preference. Google being focused on finding commonality of interest between the directory and your line of business before indexing your site, the best option is to submit to those business directories which operate in the same area as yours. Your site should be highly relevant to a business directory for your line of business.

If you are looking forward to getting high ranking from Google then it is crucial that you get listed in DMOZ also referred to as an Open Directory. This however can not hasten the process of Google picking up your site. DMOZ might take weeks or months to enlist you. This happens since every site submitted has to pass through a personal quality check by a category editor and everything depends on where your site is in the line. One vital point to remember when submitting sites to DMOZ is that you must ensure that you read, understand and follow every piece of guideline and instructions to the tee.

There is yet another way to get noticed by Google and that is through submitting articles to article submission sites because it gives you more backlinks. Nearly all the worthy article sites allow you to leave behind your tell tale signature box called ‘About the Author’ or ‘Author Resource’. This is the place where you insert the link to your site.

One of the great advantages of writing meaningful articles is that other sites use them in their sites. They have to use your “About the Author” section so you will get a free link back to your site. This is one way to confirm Google noticing your site and if the articles are in conjunction to your business then you can expect the flow of traffic to increase.
