Sometimes, getting a new blog indexed in search engine can become a troubling issue amongst bloggers especially the newbie bloggers who are just getting a hang of this SEO thingy.
I have been into blogging for about 6 years now, and one of my SEO Aura is getting a blog indexed quickly. I have read Facebook updates with various lamentations of some bloggers about how Google and other search engines refused to index their blog even though they are publishing new contents.
Let me tell you a short story!
Two weeks ago, I started a new Amazon Store built on the WordPress platform and after a long time of not starting a new blog, am faced with getting this site indexed in Google and start ranking for some long tail keywords.
After I setup the site, and I was adding my products, I didn’t want any distraction, so I forgot about doing SEO for the first two days and despite the fact that I added over 250 pages of content within 2 days (that is massive content) the site still refused to get the attention of Almighty Google.
So after 2 days of building the site and optimizing it, I applied my little indexing tricks late in the night of the 2nd day and when I woke up the following morning, I took a stroll to Google search and entered my domain name and voila! My new site is indexed!
The site didn’t just get indexed by luck, it got indexed due to the strategies that I have found to work and which applied to the site. I will be sharing with you those strategies today; by the time you are through with reading this post, you will be able to get any new blog you setup indexed within 6 hours or less.
Without much ado, let’s get down to business and learn how you can get your new blog indexed in Google within 6 hours!
When you get to qirina.com, you have the opportunity to search for your domain using the search box on the site, but believe me, nothing will come up using the search box since your blog is new and qirina has not yet crawled your site.
So what you have to do is to add your site to their index, to do this, scroll down to the footer area of the website and you will find the link that reads “Add a Site” follow this link and enter your new blog URL in the site addition box and click “submit”; then wait for the analysis of your site to be completed.
The qirina website analysis tool is quite comprehensive and you can learn one or two things about your site SEO by using their tool. So it is not just about the link back or indexing, you also get to have a quick SEO analysis of your website.
