Be A+ Rank In Search Engines
Sometimes you might get asked by a client, “do you know how to get your site indexed by Google?” Wondering what indexing means? Or maybe you've already been told that if your site isn't indexed it's useless and should be abandoned. I'm here to tell you that not only is it NOT useless, but getting indexed by Google is ESSENTIAL to the success of your small business. Click here and I'll tell you why.
What Is Indexing?
Indexing is the process of adding your website to Google's search results. When someone types in a query on Google, they're given a list of websites that match that query. By being indexed, your site has the opportunity to be one of those websites.
Now, there are a few things you need to understand before you can get indexed.
Be Live and Accessible
First, your website needs to be live and accessible to the public. This means that it's not in the process of being built or under construction.
Have A Quality Content
Second, your website must have quality content. This doesn't mean you need to be a content writing machine, but rather that your website's content should be well-written, informative, and interesting to read.
Be Updated
And finally, your website's content must be up-to-date. Google loves fresh content, so make sure you're adding new articles, blog posts, and pages to your website on a regular basis.
Get Indexed
Assuming you have a live website with quality content that's updated regularly, the next step is to get it indexed. The easiest way to do this is by using Google's Webmaster Tools. This free tool allows you to submit your website for indexing, track your website's search traffic, and identify any errors that might be preventing your website from being indexed.
So now you know why getting indexed by Google is so important, and you also know how to go about getting your website indexed. But what if you're already indexed and still aren't seeing any traffic from Google? Don't worry, you're not alone. Many businesses struggle to get traffic from Google, even after being indexed. The good news is that there are a few things you can do to increase your traffic from Google.
Ensure Your Website's SEO
One thing you can do is make sure your website's SEO is in tip-top shape. This means making sure your website's title tags, meta descriptions, and H1 tags are all properly optimized. You should also make sure your website's internal linking structure is set up properly. Internal linking allows you to connect your website's pages back to a “home” or “landing page,” which makes it easier for Google and other search engines to crawl and index your site.
Use Keywords
Finally, when adding new content to your website, make sure it contains lots of keywords that relate to your business. This will help Google and other search engines understand what your website is all about, and it will increase your chances of ranking high in the search results.
