Is Your Website Google Listed

Kind Attention: If your site is Google-listed right now, then you can not speed up listing by trying to list again. If you are looking or the page where you would have to submit your site for listing, find the page easily by searching ‘Google submit’. Not surprisingly their page is top of the list - however, there are other ways to get your site picked up quicker by them.

Google can index your site fast if you have links with other sites which have heavy traffic. Using online directories could be the best and fastest way though. Google would routinely check the top ranking directories and when you use links from such sites, your site gets indexed faster.

The choice is between free and paid subscription directories and you have to pick your choice depending on the money available. Business directories which are in line with your business type are best since Google always looks for pertinence before indexing you. The business directory ought to have a lot of commonality with your line of business and your site.

The sure shot way to get top rankings with Google is to get listed with DMOZ, sometimes called an Open Directory. However, this is not the quickest way to get Google to look at your website. DMOZ would take their time, weeks or months before you get listed. This is because a category editor personally evaluates every site that is submitted and it all matters where in the line your site is located. One advice in this regard is that if you are thinking of submitting to DMOZ, study and follow their guidelines carefully before submission.

You could also submit articles to the relevant sites and get indexed by Google. 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 more advantage of writing articles is that if they are worthy, other similar sites pick them up and use them in their sites. [s19 It is to be understood though that they must carry the Author details section at all times and this gives you a free link to your site. That’s another chance for Google to find you so if your articles are relevant to your business then you will probably find they will push visitor traffic to your site as well.
