      Any suggestion on best ways to get new sites pages indexed?

      Was thinking getting high pr inbound links on fiverr but always a little risky right?

      Thanks for your opinions.

        Posting the new pages of your website on Google+, makes your page get indexed quite quickly.

          Crawled and indexed is the easy part: Google Webmaster Tools and/or Bing Webmaster Tools, Submit a sitemap, do a crawl request of the page once it goes live, try some easy social bookmarking like StumbleUpon. That should be a good start at least.

          Now ranking well... that's the hard (fun) part.

            Submit Sitemap to the search engines and make sure to inter-link within your website so that it will be easier for bots to crawl.

              I think we all know by now that buying links never bodes well.  It's not sustainable and if Google catches on it could hurt worse than being patient.

              Definitely submit a sitemap, and work on your long term social media strategy.

                While likely effective in the short term, I think buying links from Fiverr is definitely risky and I would advise against it.

                Instead, I would suggest the following

                1. Add the site to Google Webmaster Tools and submitting a sitemap (if you haven't already done so).

                2. Post links to the site/pages on Twitter, Facebook and other social media sites.

                3. Try pinging services such as http://pingler.com/ and http://freebacklinktool.com/

                Usually this will be all it takes for a new site to start being indexed in Google.

                  No Index thousands of thin content pages?

                  Hello all! I'm working on a site that features a service marketed to community leaders that allows the citizens of that community log 311 type issues such as potholes, broken streetlights, etc.  The "marketing" front of the site is 10-12 pages of content to be optimized for the community leader searchers however, as you can imagine there are thousands and thousands of pages of one or two line complaints such as, "There is a pothole on Main St. and 3rd." These complaint pages are not about the service, and I'm thinking not helpful to my end goal of gaining awareness of the service through search for the community leaders.  Community leaders are searching for "311 request service", not "potholes on main street". Should all of these "complaint" pages be NOINDEX'd?   What if there are a number of quality links pointing to the complaint pages?  Do I have to worry about losing Domain Authority if I do NOINDEX them? Thanks for any input. Ken

                  E-Commerce Site Collection Pages Not Being Indexed

                  Hello Everyone, So this is not really my strong suit but I’m going to do my best to explain the full scope of the issue and really hope someone has any insight. We have an e-commerce client (can't really share the domain) that uses Shopify; they have a large number of products categorized by Collections. The issue is when we do a site:search of our Collection Pages (site:Domain.com/Collections/) they don’t seem to be indexed. Also, not sure if it’s relevant but we also recently did an over-hall of our design. Because we haven’t been able to identify the issue here’s everything we know/have done so far: Moz Crawl Check and the Collection Pages came up. Checked Organic Landing Page Analytics (source/medium: Google) and the pages are getting traffic. Submitted the pages to Google Search Console. The URLs are listed on the sitemap.xml but when we tried to submit the Collections sitemap.xml to Google Search Console 99 were submitted but nothing came back as being indexed (like our other pages and products). We tested the URL in GSC’s robots.txt tester and it came up as being “allowed” but just in case below is the language used in our robots:
                  User-agent: *
                  Disallow: /admin
                  Disallow: /cart
                  Disallow: /orders
                  Disallow: /checkout
                  Disallow: /9545580/checkouts
                  Disallow: /carts
                  Disallow: /account
                  Disallow: /collections/+
                  Disallow: /collections/%2B
                  Disallow: /collections/%2b
                  Disallow: /blogs/+
                  Disallow: /blogs/%2B
                  Disallow: /blogs/%2b
                  Disallow: /design_theme_id
                  Disallow: /preview_theme_id
                  Disallow: /preview_script_id
                  Disallow: /apple-app-site-association
                  Sitemap: https://domain.com/sitemap.xml A Google Cache:Search currently shows a collections/all page we have up that lists all of our products. Please let us know if there’s any other details we could provide that might help. Any insight or suggestions would be very much appreciated. Looking forward to hearing all of your thoughts! Thank you in advance. Best,

                  How long to re-index a page after being blocked

                  Morning all! I am doing some research at the moment and am trying to find out, just roughly, how long you have ever had to wait to have a page re-indexed by Google. For this purpose, say you had blocked a page via meta noindex or disallowed access by robots.txt, and then opened it back up. No right or wrong answers, just after a few numbers 🙂 Cheers, -Andy

                  What's the best way to redirect categories & paginated pages on a blog?

                  I'm currently re-doing my blog and have a few categories that I'm getting rid of for housecleaning purposes and crawl efficiency. Each of these categories has many pages (some have hundreds). The new blog will also not have new relevant categories to redirect them to (1 or 2 may work). So what is the best place to properly redirect these pages to? And how do I handle the paginated URLs? The only logical place I can think of would be to redirect them to the homepage of the blog, but since there are so many pages, I don't know if that's the best idea. Does anybody have any thoughts?

                  What is the best way to handle special characters in URLs

                  What is the best way to handle special characters? We have some URL's that use special characters and when a sitemap is generate using Xenu it changes the characters to something different. Do we need to have physically change the URL back to display the correct character? Example: URL:  http://petstreetmall.com/Feeding-&-Watering/361.html Sitmap Link:  http://www.petstreetmall.com/Feeding-%26-Watering/361.html

                  How to get content to index faster in Google.....pubsubhubbub?

                  I'm curious to know what tools others are using to get their content to index faster (other than html sitmap and pingomatic, twitter, etc) Would installing the wordpress pubsubhubbub plugin help even though it uses pingomatic? http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/pubsubhubbub/

                  Best way to merge 2 ecommerce sites

                  Our Client owns two ecommerce websites. Website A sells 20 related brands.  Website has improving search rank, but not normally on the second to fourth page of google. Website B was purchased from a competitor.  It has 1 brand (also sold on site A).  Search results are normally high on the first page of google. Client wants to consider merging the two sites.   We are looking at options. Option 1:  Do nothing, site B dominates it’s brand, but this will not do anything to boost site A. Option 2: keep both sites running, but put lots of canonical tags on site B pointing to site A Option 3: close down site B and make a lot of 301 redirects to site A Option 4: ??? Any thoughts on this would be great.  We want to do this in a way that boosts site A as much as possible without losing sales on the one brand that site B sells.

                  Best way to block a search engine from crawling a link?

                  If we have one page on our site that is is only linked to by one other page, what is the best way to block crawler access to that page? I know we could set the link to "nofollow" and that would prevent the crawler from passing any authority, and we can set the page to "noindex" to prevent it from appearing in search results, but what is the best way to prevent the crawler from accessing that one link?
