Ways To Get Your Site Indexed by Google

First a health warning: If you are already listed on Google then resubmitting again will NOT get your site listed any faster. If you haven't already tried submitting your site, then the page to submit your site to can be found easily by searching for "Google submit" into Google. Expectedly, their page would be right on top of the list but there are other means also by which you can make them select your site and that also in a quicker way.

When your site has links with sites which is frequented regularly, then Google catches it faster. Perhaps the quickest and the most successful way is to use the advantages of online directories. It is a matter of routine that Google would pay attention to the high ranking directories and when your site carries links from these sites your chances of getting indexed faster also increase.

You have a choice between free directories and paid subscriptions and it is entirely up to your budget and preference. Google being focused on finding commonality of interest between the directory and your line of business before indexing your site, the best option is to submit to those business directories which operate in the same area as yours to get your backlinks. The area of operation between your site and the business directory ought to be common.

For tapping the potential of high ranking with Google, getting enlisted in DMOZ an Open Directory is most vital. This is however not the instantaneous way to get Google notice your website. DMOZ might take weeks or months to enlist you. This is because every site submitted is reviewed in person by the category editor and it really depends how far down the queue you are. One piece of advice, if you do plan to submit to DMOZ make sure you read the submission guidelines carefully and comply fully with what they ask.

Another good way to get Google to index your site is through writing articles and submitting them to the article submission sites. Mostly all important and successful article sites would allow the author to add a small resource box called 'About the Author' or 'Author Resource'. This is the place where you insert the link to your site.

Writing articles has a few other advantages as other sites looking for content might pick up your article from the article sites and use it on their site. They must carry the 'About the Author' section below your article so that you access a free link to your own site. That's another chance for Google to find you so if your articles are relevant to your business then you will probably find they will push visitor traffic to your site as well.
