If you are promoting an online business or personal website, getting noticed on the internet is challenging. There is so much competition it isn’t funny. Getting noticed may take months. Google and Yahoo both state that there is no guarantee that they will even index your website. Unfortunately, if your site does not roll up in the top ten listing of the search result no one is going to find you. It isn’t cool relying on someone trying to remember your website address hours before they set down to search for a good or service they are interested in.
Fortunately there is some good news. Getting listed in the search engines is much easier than you may think. The best part of it is, it won’t cost you a dime. One the other side of getting indexed is promotion of your website. Promotion can be done in a variety of ways and can be started as your attempting to get your website indexed.
Have you ever heard of Blogger. Blogger is the Google Blog. It makes sense to me that using the Google blog is the fastest means available to get indexed. Google sucks up content from their own blog in massive amounts. You can expect to get indexed in Google first because of this.
Once you look into using Blogger, you will realize you are going to have to write some content to post to your new blog. You will want to use content related to your business or niche market. If you hate to write, another method for posting content is to borrow content from other authors using articles. If you use this method, follow the guidelines, and post the authors information. In every post list links to your own website. This is the secret to getting indexed. As the search engines come in to pick up your content they follow your link to your website and magically, you get indexed.
Many third party sites have cool plugins that you can use. Most of the third party sites have very clear instructions as to how you set it up. It is a matter of removing some code and putting some back. It is all done in your Blogger control panel. Another benefit of using a blog is that you will earn a back link or two for your own site. Remember, to go back to your own site and add your Blogger site URL to reciprocate the favor. Every link you can get will increase your popularity. You will definitely want to spend some time learning about link building.
Blogger and many other blogs have an automatic ping, which is just a way for the blog to tell all the other content sources that new content has been posted. Technorati is a great place to go and manually ping your blog everyday after you make a post. Again, this just lets the world know you made a post. So, in the end, all you have to do is make a daily post with you website hyper link and manually ping your blog and in no time you website will be listed in Google.
