o Does Google Have Your Site On Speed Dial?
…….

Truth be told, for years I sat around and waited for things
to happen with my first site which I had placed on the web.
I did get some traffic and Google did index my site, so too,
did all the other search engines.
However, little else happened, sure I made a few sales but
nothing really to get excited about especially when you
considered all the time and money I had put into this project.
Actually, I was about to give up on all this web foolishness
when something changed in me and I came to the realization that
nothing simply comes to you; instead, you have to go out and
get it.
You have to fight for it!
The spark for me was seeing other sites, some much more
crappier than mine, ranking high in Google. What were they
doing that I wasn’t doing? And the answer was quite simple –
they were aggressively promoting their sites in Google and
on the web. They weren’t just sitting around and waiting for
things to happen, they were making things happen.
The gloves came off and I got down to work. And that as they
say has made all the difference in the world.
Here’s an article on what I did and what I am doing to get
Google to notice my site – you can do the same for your own
site. All of these programs are free to join and use. Why not
try them…

Does Google Have Your Site On Speed Dial?
Copyright 2009 Titus Hoskins.
As any webmaster will tell you, getting your site noticed and indexed
by Google is extremely important to your site’s success. Google controls
about 70% or more of all the search engine traffic on the web so getting
your content listed and ranked high by Google generally means tons of free
quality traffic flowing to your site.
Most webmasters are satisfied to take a passive role when it comes
to promoting their sites within Google. They are glad to get their
site/content indexed by Google and then patiently sit around waiting
for the slow dribble of search engine traffic to come their way.
However, there is another group of webmasters and online marketers
who aggressively market their sites and content to Google. They just
don’t stand around and wait for things to happen, they make things happen.
They spend their valuable time targeting Google with a steady flow
of quality content and links. They make sure Google is constantly
noticing and indexing their site.
Now we are talking about “totally legit” white hat SEO tactics
which will get your site noticed by Google. Aggressive tactics which
fairly puts your content into the whole mix of online interaction,
so that your content or site can’t be ignored by Google or any other
search engine for that matter.
First, you have probably already realized that social network
sites are quickly turning into the traffic hubs of the web. It’s
where the people go and it’s where you will find them. The search engines
obviously know this fact and are quickly indexing all these interactions,
links and content. Savvy webmasters are taking advantage of these
social bookmark programs to promote their own sites.
You must place your site into all this social interaction, it must
be a part of all these traffic hubs. You must create profiles in
all these sites and actively promote your content. Do you have
a profile for your site or yourself in these: FaceBook, Twitter,
MySpace, YouTube, iGoogle, Digg, Blogger, LiveJournal, Bloglines,
WordPress… and the list goes on.
You must create profiles and constantly submit content to these
sites with links back to your site. You must interact and place
your site into the whole social mix of what is happening – Google
constantly spiders these social networks and indexes the contents
and links. Have your site in all these places and Google will also
be constantly indexing your content.
Make sure you make it extremely easy for your visitors to BookMark
your content in all of these social bookmarking sites. One effective
and easy way to do this is to use the free AddThis button for all
your content. Your visitors can bookmark your content for you.
Likewise, also make sure visitors can easily Tweet your content.
Remember most of these sites are high PR6, PR7 or PR8 so Google
spiders then more frequently than lower PageRank sites. Just using
a site like Blogger/Blogspot (which Google owns) will get your
content listed in Google within minutes of posting.
Savvy online marketers also know Google is now more prominently listing
News Items, Product Listings and Videos in their SERPs or Search Results
for the most popular and lucrative keyword phrases on the web,
so these marketers aggressively use News Items/Press Releases
and Videos to get Google to index and rank their content. They
also optimize their product listings so Google indexes these as
well.
These marketers make sure their site/content is featured on
Google News. One easy way to do this is thru Press Releases
and another way is to get your content placed on sites which
Google News uses to gather material. For example, you can use a
site like American Chronicle where items are regularly picked
up by Google News.
Another simple way to promote your site/content to Google is
to use the major free article directories on the web. Article
marketing is not as effective as it once was in Google, but
it still works. Get your site’s content and articles featured
on the major article networks such as Ezinearticles, GoArticles,
iSnare, SelfGrowth, Buzzle, Article Alley, Ideamarketers…
and the list goes on.
Another venue is online forums related to your site’s topic,
so create profiles in these and promote your site. Google pays
special attention to this user-generated content and is constantly
indexing it. We are not talking about comment spam but helpful
posts with quality content. For example, Yahoo! Answers would
be an excellent example of this marketing tactic.
As you can see from above, many webmasters aggressively promote
their site/content to Google. They use simple, yet persistent
link building with quality link bait, articles, reports, posts…
to make sure Google is regularly indexing their site. And to
be even more effective they tie in all their site’s important
keywords to all this content and links. They make sure Google is
making the connection between these keywords and their sites.
Of course, the real key to effective online marketing is tracking.
You must track everything, including how well Google is noticing
your site and/or content. One simple way, besides closely studying
your own website log stats, is to create Google Alerts for anything
you want to track, including your site.
You can set up your free account here:
http://www.google.com/alerts
Google will send you email notifications whenever it indexes another
page anywhere on the web containing your site’s URL. This way you can
constantly see how Google is indexing your site and where those links
are coming from on the net.
You can effectively monitor not only your site but also the keywords
that you are targeting. Try to get three or four emails a day from
Google Alerts saying your content has been indexed and you will
truly have Google on Speed… well you get the picture.
