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.

Single Page on my client's website is not crawling and indexing new changes. What could be the possible reason?
I made several changes on client's website on different pages, changed titles, add content on few pages, moved blog from subdomain to sub directory. Everything is crawled but there is one page on the website (not part of the blog) that isn't getting crawled in Google and picking up changes. The last crawl of the website is 2 days back whereas that page was last crawled on 30th sep. I just wanted to know the possible reasons and has anyone encountered this before?

What is the best way to resolve duplicate content issue
Hi I have a client whose site content has been scraped and used in numerous other sites. This is detrimental to ranking. One term we wish to rank for is nowhere. My question is this: what's the quickest way to resolve a duplicate content issue when other sites have stolen your content? I understand that maybe I should firstly contact these site owners and 'appeal to their better nature'. This will take time and they may not even comply. I've also considered rewriting our content. Again this takes time. Has anybody experienced this issue before? If so how did you come to a solution? Thanks in advance.

Prevent Indexing of URLs Based on Tags
I started my website as a blog over at Posterous, but decided to turn it into a full scale business website with a self-hosted WordPress theme. Shortly after transitioning from Posterous to WordPress, I noticed that Google was indexing not only my old blog posts, but the URLs of my blog posts based on the tags they have. Is there any reason why this is a problem? I'm sure it shouldn't qualify as duplicate content, but for some reason it just feels a bit sloppy to me to have all of these pages indexed...Is this a non-issue? Should I just be more discriminating with my use of 'tags' if it bothers me? JiGLH.png

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.
