    As already said, type in "site:yourdomainname" without the quotes into Google's search bar. You should also familiarise yourself with Google's webmaster tools, if you havent already.

    You will go to Google's webmaster tools and sumit site map.

    you could type in site:http://www.yoursite.com or site:yoursite.com to see if it's indexed. This special syntax tells you how many of your pages Google has already indexed and are showing up in its database. Don't fret if yours isn't indexed yet. If your site is relatively new, it's quite probable that could be the reason why.

    Now, if your site is indexed, what you'd probably like to do next is find out, how much Google really knows about it.

    my site is Gain Serious Muscle. I just submitted it to the webmaster tools and the sitemap as well. I still can't find it in google, but it's probably too new right now. I could've swore it was there yesterday though and not there today.

      Buddy I see 20 pages being indexed... it also includes your wp-login.php page too. But I don't see your home page is indexed... its not time to worry, google may take some time - don't worry...

    1. directory submission
    2. social bookmarks
    3. articles submission
    These work do help. Notice that do not submit to those sites which has been punished by google.

    It is always better to check all combos of your site. i.e.
    with the full url, without the www and without the http.

    I notice that your /blog is indexed but I am getting a 404 error. Obviously, it was there there when google saw it and then I guess you had it removed or shifted it to the root. Well....google is confused ;-) It is always suggested "not" to remove "already indexed" pages from your servers.

    wanna get it indexed fast?????

    Find a blog in your niche that has comments enabled and approves comments as soon as you write one them. (Automatic Approval)

    This is not hard to do. Just look through a few and you will find one. Doesn't even have to be in your niche.

    Make a comment - with a link to your site.

    Once your comment appears - it should straight away, ping that blog page, submit it to Stumbleupon and Digg it.

    You should have your site indexed in about 20 minutes........

    Your website might be taken away by G for checking it under different parameters. You might see your website soon on the G.
