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.

Best practice to have gated white paper indexed by Google
Our main website white paper page has an image and brief description of the white paper. Once you click the white paper you are redirected to a form to access the gated white paper. Once you complete that form you are redirected to the white paper pdf which is housed on a subdomain/Hubspot. Because of this, I do not believe our website is getting "credit" for the keywords/content on these pages. Any suggestions on how we can allow the search engines to crawl this content while still keeping it gated? As I understand it a sub domain cannot hep or hurt (aside from critical crawler issues) the main domain. Thank you

How to get stars in my search results?
Is it possible for me to take my Google reviews and show them under my homepage as stars when my page is shown in search results. I provide a service, so I don't have separate product reviews. My homepage is what ranks most in the searches I target. If this is possible, what is the best way to do it technically? I have a wordpress site. Thank you in advance!
