Now lets see how long it takes until Google™ visits my new site.
So you have built your website. Everything is nice and shiny.
Only one thing is missing: Some visitors.
Some visitors that find your site via a Google™ Search would be especially welcome, right?
You probably heard the story about incoming links. If your site has a link from anothersite pointing to your site and the first site is already in Google™'s index, the Google™-bot will index your site on its next visit.
If you just put a link on any site that is in Google™'s index, you may have to wait weeks,until google indexes your site and then some more time until your site actually appearsin google's index.
But there are sites that the Google™-bot indexes on a daily basis. These are sites with frequently changing content.
So, if you want your site to be indexed fast you have to put a link on a site that Google™ likes and indexes daily.
Which sites does Google™ like the most? Google™ likes Blogs.
Like for example Joeuser.com.
What you do is simple: Go to joeuser.com/, create a Blog (Free and takes 5 minutes)
and put a link to your site on your blog.
Example:
This is a new site, as of this writing not indexed by any search engine and
no link from any other page to it.
The only existing link is:
Make up to $300 per day with the help of Google™ Cash!
