Quickest Way to get indexed?
-
We would like to index a new site on all major search engines. What is the quickest way to do so?
-
You could also share it on Google+. I plus oned a site of mine yesterday, and today it's indexred. It doesn't have any other links pointing to it.
-
To get indexed in couple hours set up adwords campaign and bing campaign and run it for a while:)
-
If you can have another website link you from somewhere on the web, that could also help speed up the indexing, getting you a deeper crawl.
Think of the following:
1. Press Release containing an active clickable hyperlink to your website
2. Leave a testimonial or something on a service provider's website with an active link
3. Find niche directories and try to get a listingThese links will not only help you short term in getting you a deep index, but also help long term towards your link profile (Off-page Optimization).
-
If it's a brand-new web presence, generally Google and Bing will discover and crawl it fairly quickly. However, if you want to speed up the process, the quick and dirty way is to submit to Google and Bing here:
http://www.google.com/submityourcontent/
https://ssl.bing.com/webmaster/SubmitSitePage.aspx
You'll need to have logins with Google and Bing respectively.
However, the best way to do takes a bit more work, but is far more effective. Validate your site in Google Webmaster Tools and Bing Webmaster Center:
http://www.google.com/webmasters/
http://www.bing.com/toolbox/webmaster/
Submit XML sitemaps with both engines. Let things run their course, check back in a week or so, and you should be indexed.

No-index or 301 - custom wordpress archives
Hi, We are using custom wordpresss posts to showcase different services we provide, these are then grouped within custom archives. These custom archive pages are our main keyword landing pages and traffic generators (although ranking is fairly average). It's come to my attention that these custom posts have also been listed in the wordpress standard categories, with an identical title, excerpts and near identical urls as the custom archives. This appears to have been the case for quite a while. We are concerned that this is may causing duplicate content issues and unsure how to proceed. We have been advised to simply no-index the redundant 'standard' categories but as they have been indexed for some time we are cautious of causing any upset with search engines (although the categories are indexed they are not ranking for any major keywords) Are we best 301ing the redundant category to the custom archives or using a canonical tags or simply no-indexing the categories like other archive pages? Any advice is aprreciated Many thanks BC

What is the best way to handle small business site architecture?
I do allot of work for small businesses with around 15-20 total pages. What is the best site architecture? For example if its a landscaping website, should there be a services category page and pages under that (domain.com/services/lawn-mowing.html) or should it be flatter (domain.com/lawn-mowing.html) They offer about 10 different services.

Hi Mozzers, Very quick question. Google WM tools interface has updated and I want to confirm I'm looking at the correct figure. If I look up 'Your site on the web' / 'search queries' / then the 'pages' - this is correct indexation figure yes? This differs from the 'site:' command but that's always the case. Can anyone confirm, Thanks

Shall Google index a search result?
Hi, I've a website with about 1000 articles.Each article has one ore more keywords / tags. So I display these keywords at the article page and put a link to the intern search engine. (Like a tag cloud) The search engine lists als articles with the same keyword and creates a result page. This result page is indexed by Google. The search result contains the title of the article, a short description (150-300 chars.) and a link to the article. So, Google believes, that there are about 5.000 pages instead of 1.000 because auf the link to the search result pages. The old rule was for me: More pages in Google = better. But is this still true nowadays? Would be a "noindex, follow" better on these search result pages? (Is there a way to tell Google that this is a search result page?) Best wishes, Georg.
