Copyright 2005 Kurma Group The biggest problem that most are
running into seems to do with getting INTO the search engines.
Rankings aside, you need to first get them to index you. Here
are the four main ways to assure yourself fast indexing:
Indexing Tip #1: Never launch a new site with a lot of back
links. Build natural links over weeks and months. Let?s face it,
there is no guaranteed method of getting indexed by Google fast,
and buying links from high-ranking sites does not guarantees
anything either. The most immediate red flag you should watch
out for is your number of incoming links. According to Google,
it takes time to get link popularity and sites should not have
more than 100 incoming links. It?s okay to launch with a quality
link or two. But beyond that, you are pushing it! Here is the
scoop! It takes 30-45 days for Google to deep index new sites.
Instead of sitting around during ?sandbox? time, use that period
to build a strong set of natural back-links with a variety of
sites. Indexing Tip #2: Register your domain name at least four
months before you plan to launch the site. No I am not kidding!
Whether you agree with it or not, history shows that Google
takes older URLs far more seriously than newer ones. So register
your domain name as soon as you plan on developing a site.
Indexing Tip #3: Blog and ping carefully. Blogging & pinging is
one of the fastest ways to get into the Yahoo index - it can
literally get you into Yahoo overnight ? helps with MSN as well.
Will blogging and pinging help get you into Google? Maybe. But
over-pinging can set off red flags on the ping servers, and if
you?re using automated blogging software, overdoing it can cause
Blogger.com and other services to shut down your blog. Blogging
and pinging intelligently can get your blog indexed in Yahoo
quickly, but ping carefully. Does Yahoo de-index junk blogs?
Absolutely. Especially since the creation of all this software,
the search engines are watching closely for red flags (use
software wisely). So what can you do about Yahoo Search? Not
much? You can be smart about blogging and pinging or even
better, you can create real (not by software) blogs. You still
have to be careful with pinging though. In the end, blogging and
pinging should be part of every beginner?s indexing strategy.
Indexing Tip #4: If you build bulk directory/portal sites - keep
them in the 200-300 page range. We know it?s such a blast to
build those monster 1000-5000 page sites, even with growing
evidence of Google bots? tendencies to stall after indexing the
first 200 pages or so? So if you?re into blasting out those
gigantic directories and sick of waiting months for them to get
indexed, experiment with building smaller sites around more
targeted niches. In a nutshell: Divide those mega-keyword lists,
spend a little time grouping your sub-lists, and build smaller
sites. All in all, the best way to get indexed, stay indexed and
eventually get ranked is to recruit incoming link partners. See,
blogging and pinging could be gone tomorrow. But, linking is an
integral part of how the internet works ? it will never go away.
Concentrate on building sites and recruiting links ? the links
get you indexed, ranked and even bring you free traffic from
those who click the links!
