Getting Your Site Indexed on the Web

While good content rules when it comes to internet writing, even the best content doesn’t automatically attract visitors to your article or site. You have to become visible so people can find you, especially if you start a new blog or website. If you don’t announce your presence, it could takes weeks for it to be crawled and indexed on the web.

Here’s a little tip I learned recently for those of us who blog and produce internet content. Use your social networking tools lavishly. Build up your network and share your work. And don’t forget to subscribe to your very own blog.

If you create a brand new blog or webpage, give it a little Digg as soon as you can. You can still submit the request code through Google, Yahoo, Bing and the others if you want, but your new site will draw attention much more quickly if you spread the word and generate traffic right away.
