I keep submitting my site to the search engines, but…
We talk with web designers all the time who don’t understand why their clients’ sites aren’t ranking or even indexed.
“I keep submitting the site, over and over, and nothing!”
We then launch into our bit about links and how spiders find sites. But I wanted to post a quick example of how truly fast your site or blog can become indexed, and how high you can rank in this time.
Two days ago, I wrote a post (Back In My Day…) about how the internet is changing commerce in a big way. For fun, about 15 minutes ago, I decided to search Google for Back In My Day to see if I could find my post.
Here’s what’s cool. Guess how many page returns there are for Back In My Day? OVER 471 MILLION. And guess where my blog post is currently? NUMBER SIX. IN TWO DAYS. This is coming from our site (www.queenbeemarketing.com) which is fairly new and only has a small number of links.
Anyway, I thought it was neat exactly how fast the spiders caught this and sent it to page one. I’m not sure how long it will stay in this position, but it definitely shows you how fast things can happen.
A quick joke: “What did Spock find in the toilet?” answer: “The Captain’s Blog.”
