SEO is a big topic but links to and from your site are a good start, weather or not it helps you can manually add your site to google, and it might help the googlebot wonder your way --

Erm, not the best advice - Google's already indexed the site in question - so there's no need to re-submit unless you have fallen fowl of a penalty - then it's a re-inclusion request you'll need... Links in. You'll get found. Fresh content will keep google coming back and encorage more links in... You'll get found.

I've found that the bot is quicker to pick up new pages if there's a syndication sheet attached to the page(s). - It seems that it's either got a higher priority on what it thinks are blogs, but that could be an effect of me using the Blogger interface for that specific domain too; not sure. Comparatively, it often takes ages if you submit a "normal" site, or atleast the times I've tried, but the "blogs" are getting picked up quicker. My bet is on "favourism" or whatever (due to hooping through the Blogger system, or maybe I got double-spidered by [Google] blogsearch, perhaps,) but my speculations could be no good. |

Circumstantial evidence. RSS is not spidered. Google, for one, is definitely not placing any emphasis on blogs. Quality content, and links is all you need. Forget other hypothesis. It's that simple. |

I agree about the improbability of anything from my last post, but at the time [..when I messed with the blog listing/submission stuff..] you'd get the impression that blogsearch.google spidered your pages differently than the normal google search, which is where I initially got those impressions from. Still just an [old], wild, speculation, this. (Edit:) I think the 'steps to circumstantiality' went a little like this: 1) - Create "blog" through Google Blogs / Blogger 2) - claim "blog" at technorati[.net] 3) - end up among the "newly updated" listings there. 4) - get picked up by blogsearch.google, -later on to [seemingly] appear quicker in the ordinary google.com -search too; seeing as the domain/page was totally unlinked and unlisted up to that point. The point is; it normally takes ages to get into google.com, but under the routine above not only did it [..seem to..] surface quicker, but the day-to-day scans of the front page were slicker too, and I mean in "ordinary" google. Not that any of this really _should_ work, though; - only seemingly from how it appeared.. Last edited by doffy : 26-10-2007 at 11:29. |

Ah, and it could be so simple that technorati.net has a good/high rating within the google-system? ..Strange that sites like tecnhorati count like regular links, because it's a really cheap way in, and all, if it works as good as a link from a "sweat & tears" -made popular site; just weird.. -You'd think that "cheap" links [from places easy to get "linked" from] should count less, but then perhaps they do too, and they're just way up there in the ratings, or something. |

Pish! What you need to do is stuff as many popular keywords into your site as possible, then submit the site to as many linkfarms as possible. Surefire way to get to the top of the rankings!   |

I thought we were talking about regularity of visits? - sites of technoraties size will be spidered very often - especially top tier pages with transitional content - hence the increase in bot traffic. Might not have an impact on your serps long term though - but it can't help. |

I should perhaps add that "newly listed" on techno isn't a feat like "Top EmoBlogKid of The Month," or something; techno's newly listed is/was based on time of posts/submissions; that's why I mean it's a cheap way of doing it. Yeah; saw your new post: - - - At the time all you needed was to stay chronologically fresh within the search system; if someone searched for a term, then the freshest site(s) would end up on top; seemingly regardless [..if for nothing else because my site sucked/was a test, and I still ended up way up there.] -And it doesn't have to be blogs strictly speaking either; any url/domain you "Claim" (that is previously unclaimed) will be scanned for updates; - and if a totally regular site doesn't work, try adding a RSS link for it, even if you usually don't use one. That was the technorati I messed with, anyway, things can have changed now, if only for matters of fairity and/or logical reasoning. (Edit:) nine tenths of the matter could be their logged-in feature of "pinging" their attention, so as to tell them an edit has taken place; if they've failed to notice it yet. - - You can go on-and-on doing this, by the way; too convenient..
