4 days, and my site isn't indexed yet

[bobnolan]

I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I have good keywords with limited competition, I sumbited 2 articles to goarticles.com and 1 to ezinearticles(that hasn't been aproved yet), submitted my site to Bing and Yahoo, and I put my sight link up at digg.

I honestly don't know what else to do.

[apocrypha]

Google will come indexing faster than the others.So,wait for Google to Index first and don't hurry that much.

Also,It isn't a good idea to submit a website to search engines.Instead submit 2-3 articles to websites that are likely to be crawled frequently(Article Directories).
Don't be worried.Wait for the articles to get accepted.I am sure,you will have a indexed site after article gets published.

Submit it to Social Bookmarking sites especially digg.com and it will get indexed pretty soon. I also do the same and my sites get indexed within hours and sometimes instantly !

[Crafty Blogger]

Just be patient. It'll happen soon... I find it often takes a week or two, even when doing all the above. Best to move on and start on a new blog, rather than check every hour to see if you are indexed yet (lol, speaking from experience here...)

If you had a wordpress blog, BTW, you may want to make sure the privacy settings aren't set to block the googlebots... that'll keep you from being indexed :-(

[Ken Durham]

4 days?
When it comes to Google it is hurry up and wait.
If Google were a person it would take them 4 days just to go to the bathroom.
Just do the things that have been repeated on this forum over 1,000,000 times and you will do fine.

[nettech]

Ive waited nearly a week and theres still no sign so I feel your pain brother...lol

[zakiprofit]

If you use wordpress and did not get index for a few days after submitting articles.. or to digg.. there must be something wrong with your wordpress setting.
go.. to the setting tab.. go to privacy tab.. and choose :

I would like my blog to be visible to everyone, including search engines (like Google, Sphere, Technorati) and archivers

[iworkforthem]

If you have WP installed, and add to Google Webmaster. Google will definitely index your website within the next 2 days. Period!

[Jeff Collision]

I started new website and it took one week for Google to reach my site..

I suggest you to wait for some time and I suggest yoo to Social Bookmark your site to get quick indexing, i got result because of that only..!

[Louise Green]

It can take months for Google to index your site.

Build your backlinks slowly and provide original quality content.

A press release might help speed things up.

Good luck

[bobnolan]

Thanks for the words of encouragement; I almost gave up. My site is now ranked on the 3rd page. It should should be ranking well in no time.

[desi4eva]

I am in the same boat with 2 of my sites one got ranked and then dropped of the index a day later

[HCLee]

My last new website got indexed after 6 days so I'm sure it will happen soon. I submitted a few articles to article directories and put it at a few online forum signature and used Angela's backlinks.

[naplesdave]

I don't normally go crazy with backlinking until I have seen that Google has been to the site or it is indexed somewhere, i.e. Yahoo, Bing, etc. It looks too suspicious that someone socially bookmarked your site when it hasn't even been indexed by a search engine.

Does that make sense?

[andi_gt2005]

Post your link on: Scrib.com, Slideshare.net. Docstoc.com. You'll get your site indexed in hours.

[vagabondette]

Did you ping it? I just added 6 new pages to one of my sites and within an hour 4 of them had been indexed. I just did a ping on each one. That always gets my pages indexed within an hour or two. The longest it's taken is 36 hours.

[WinsonYeung]

Submit your website to Clipmarks and do some social bookmarking to mix, reddit etc etc.
A good software is Incansoft SocialBot. Download the clipmarks plugin from

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1407

This will really boost the speed of indexing your website.

[twisted_one]

Having a Sitemap also helps. Submit your feed to other Pinging services. Also, join and add your site URL in Social Networking sites including BlogCatalog, MyBlogLog, etc.

[Joshua.E1]

There is the slow way and the fast way to index your website.

I had that too when I first started out, I asked myself what did I do wrong?

[mistyone]

I also add my new site to About Us and Cube Stat

Hope this is useful

[Burtgummer]

In the past, I've had completely new sites indexed in less than a day without even touching them. I have 9 sites up now, 4 were created on Saturday, and only 1 has been indexed. I think Google is up to something in my opinion, because I've never seen it take this long for .com domains to get indexed, especially for the amount of bookmarking I've done. My keywords have bookmarking sites with my bookmarks on the first page, but my site itself hasn't even been indexed.

Try to submit your website in any Social Bookmarking site and those Social Bookmarking Site should be do follow to crawl and indexed your site by bot. Social Bookmarking site is frequent crawl by bot because it is always fresh the content.

[iblbuilder]

1. Ping every page to pingomatic
2. Submit each page to digg, stumbleupon, reddit and mixx as a minimum
3. Get a blogger blog and do some relevant posts each containing a link to one page
4. Start building backlinks - slow and steady - and make sure each is indexed by submitting the URLs they are on to dig etc as well.

[RedSynergy]

Well I agree with Burtgummer. Except mine is a .net domain. I've also had the same problem -2 weeks - with a .com name.

I've created a wp site, put 2 posts on it, added 5 pages, built a sitemap and submitted the sitemap to webmastertools. I've bookmarked it to digg, delicious, and about 5 others (propeller, mixx, mister wong etc). I've pinged the site from inside wp and also from pingler. Then I've pinged the bookmarks.

And to top it off I've made a youtube video with the links to my site.

5 days later it hasn't even been crawled yet. The bookmarked links are showing up, but not the site.

I think the days of getting indexed in hours are GONE (at least for the last couple of months anyway).

Umm, false. I've had WP sites take over a week to get indexed even with proper XML sitemap submission.

What you have to do is get a Google Analytics site and add their snippets of javascript and tags into your html. Then click the "verify my site" button on GA and they will check it immediately. From there you have to wait for their spiders, but I've always had them visit within 12 hours after that.

[gothic love]

it`s take times to get index, it can take even 30 days.... just build links, post some blogs and google will follow your site

[kkchoon]

Digg it, bookmark it, submit to rss directories and ping it too!

Should be indexing within a week or so, just don't wait for it to index, build backlinks to your site, try Winson Yeung service, you will love it!

[membo]

its just 4 days yet keep patience google will index your site soon

[digidoodles]

If your site hasn't been crawled in 5 days, something is blocking it.

If it's a Wordpress site, go to Settings, Privacy and make sure that the "I want to block my site from search engines" isn't checked.

If it's a static site, open up a notepad and save an empty file as robots.txt and upload it to your root.

Ping your site pingoat.com

Let us know how this works-- if you need help, PM me.

Warmly,

Brandi

[chandan_dutta]

Any site can be indexed within 24 hours or less if we want. I have experience of doing that myself. If it is a blog submit your RSS feed and get some backlink from high PR page. If you get backlink from a high PR page, your site will be indexed within 24 hours. If still it's not indexed then PM me. I will help you.

[Robert Oliver]

Took me 7 days to get 2 sites indexed.

I even digged and ezined.

Guess they just do what they please.

I agreed!

If you found some good authority sites, you can easily get index in 24 hours! Don't just bookmark or RSS, use those authority sites that Google love!

Feedage.com, Digg.com, StumbleUpon...

Authority blog comments as well!

I don't believe its possible to get a site indexed in 24 hours right now.... my sites currently are taking over a week... and since day 1 google bots have been crawling the sites.

you guys who claim "its so easy", when was the last time you built a new site? because it just is taking way longer now then it use to...

I think something is up, too. I've gotten indexed, in the sense that a Google "site:mysite.com" shows one site in there, but that's after doning their Webmastertools/analytics thing. If I forget to force google to find me in their tools/analytics it takes days.

My main problem right now is that Google isn't ranking my sites in the first 200 pages, and that's bad, since I'm only developing these sites if they're going to be on page 1 or 2. The other big problem is that neither Yahoo nor MSN/Bing has indexed any of my last 6 sites, which have been live for over a week. I have no idea what it takes to get indexed by Yahoo; three of my sites show up on page 1 or 2, and over a dozen sites haven't been indexed at all. Very strange.

[vishal4blue]

Hi there
For come in Que of Google index you should do first analyst your site on Google tool (Google analyst) first you find out in which keywords you get max. traffic than work on this keywords you can do bookmarking on social community sites and directory submission, article submission, forums discussion with attach your signature by a link.

[jrptr]

Not sure why everyone is saying to post a link on SBS and article directories will get you indexed quickly?

I have many sites that have had to wait months to be indexed by google and they have all had at least 20 articles and social bookmarks to them.

Google does as it pleases and you just have to wait and thats it.

[kwality]

Try to have at least ten articles on your site then submit some more articles.

[max922]

4 days is not a big time. At least you have to give a week. You have to be patient. Big G is not in a hurry as we do.

[tonygreg]

4 days mean not a big time for indexing. Wait some more and try at least one thing discussed above like article, social media etc

[DDistel]

Out of everything everyone said the quickest from my experence is submitting to google webmaster tools + sitemap.

[seoguy1]

Just get a link from a site that is regularly indexed by google.

[JAAffiliates]

Most of my sites index within 24 hours. If you do a little bookmarking, ping and all that good stuff, it shouldn't take days.
