Why won't the search engine find my site?

How long does it take for a new site to be found by search engines? Are there any other ways to speed it up?

It really depends what search engine it is. Also, some sites can't even be found by search engines. I would try again tomorrow if I were you. Or type in things that are related to the site you're looking for. It just might have what you need.

Also, try using different search engines.

Best of luck!

There are businesses out there that make millions answering this question for other online business owners. I wish there was a simple answer to your question, but the fact is: There isn't! A lot of knowledge goes into SEO (Search Engine Optimization) to obtain organic search traffic (traffic that is not sponsored, or paid for per click). It will usually take about 3 months for your site to be indexed by search engines. Sometimes it's longer, sometimes it's shorter...it really all depends on the circumstances.

Here are just a few things I've picked up over the years from working with various Search Engine Marketing companies:

1. Content is King - I'm sure you've heard it before, make sure you have fresh content on your pages so the search engines have something new to index on a regular basis. Also, the number of unique pages your site consists of will give you better chances of ranking higher. WARNING: Do not roll out too many pages at once or you will be flagged by Google as a spammer. Also, do not write a script to duplicate pages because they won't be unique enough to be indexed. Your best bet is user generated content or dynamic content from some kind of feed.

2. Clean & Updated HTML Tags - Back in the day everyone, and I do mean everyone, designed their websites with table layouts. This has died out and is actually frowned upon by most savvy web developers. The way to go is using positioned div tags and style sheets. It's faster and more efficient once you get the hang of it. Also you will want to make use of your title tags and meta keyword and description tags. People say these have been phased out, but it's untrue. Search Engines still look at them, they are just not weighted as heavily as they once were. Another great thing to do is use heading and bold tags to emphasize important content. Place your important content near the top of your HTML coding as well, and put things like menus toward the bottom of the page.

3. Site Maps - Be sure to create and update a site map so that Search Engines can find pages within your website easily.

4. Linking - It use to be to get better page rank you would just do some kind of reciprocal link share with someone. Well, Google has caught wind of the sham and changed their algorithm. Now link exchange isn't a very helpful tactic in improving SEO and may even end up hurting you. Your best bet is to get one way deep links out there. One way links are just sites that link in to yours. Deep links are links that go to subpages within your website, not just the home page. You'll want sites with higher page ranks than yours linking to you. When too many low page rank sites are linking in, it can also damage your SEO efforts. :(

I hope this gets you off to a nice start with your search engine marketing efforts!

Most of them have a way for you to submit the site.

However, if your "site" is sitting under an ISP's site (i.e. you just have an account on their system), don't hold your breath - those pages usually don't get indexed.

it depends of your hit and some other parameters;
the things you can do are: 1. tell your friends put links to your site. 2. search your site everyday, tell your friends to do this for you. for more details look up one of google bombs in http://legofish.com/google/

sorry to say there is no ways to speed it up but you can try these things :-

1) add new content continuously, search engines love this.

2) Modify your site for keywords, like the main words that are searched for in your niche.

3) have your blog attached to your site and post every other day

4) Include articles on your site that are filled with good content.

5) Add your link to high ranking sites if you can so that google takes preference to your site before others. It is quality links, not quantity of links like other webmaster believe that will get you fast and higher rankings

A search engine can find your site in one of two ways: first, by finding a link to your site from another web site while indexing that site; second, by receiving your submission using a URL-submission tool that every search engine offers. For example: http://www.google.com/addurl/

The most effective way to advertise on the Internet is
to first set up a website and publish its domain name
on major search directories such as Google.com,
Yahoo.com [at http://www.google.com/addurl/?...... and
MSN.com since 85% of Internet shoppers rely on these
search directories to provide them with goods and
services. In a sense, these search directories are a
very large Internet Yellow Pages.

Nevertheless, should your website or opening webpage
fail to contain "generic" keywords, then anyone using
such "generic" queries will not be able to discover
your website. Your domain name [URL] of your website,
in a sense, will be invisible, undiscoverable.

You may want to consider some simple algorithms which,
when observed and committed in designing of a website
with placement of various critical metatags that can
surely achieve a high search engine presence and
increase Internet traffic to your website. These
metatag strategies work well with published webpages
at Google and Yahoo.

Design: Should you create an extensive Flash-based
website, make sure to fill-in the property entries
such as the Title, Description and Keywords. Failing
to do so, leaves no hard HTML or ALT resource that can
be readily indexed by search robots. Also consider the
Internet audience and their incoming setup. For
example, if they are on analog/dialup, Flash webpages
take too long to load up and therefore analog users
will likely lose interest and discontinue entering the
Flash site. On the other hand, anyone on hi-speed DSL
lines, will welcome Flash pages which load quickly. So
before designing a pure Flash websitge, ask the simple
question, "Who's my end user - is he on dialup or
DSL?" And if you had to choose between these two users
for maximum marketability, then select analog users
since 80% of most resident users are still analog
Internet subscribers and pure HTML designed webpages
is best for them.

A non-Flash-based website which relies on hard text,
is far easier to be indexed by search robots. Limit
the use of stylized text saved as .gifs since as a
graphic, they are not indexable by search robots.

Avoid use of frames since any number of search robots
are unable to properly classify textual material.

Placement of Metatags:

A ranking or search order does take place with Google
and Yahoo and it begins with the "Title" metag which
should consist of no more than 65 characters separated
by commas. The "Title" should describe in generic
terms, the goods and services, followed by a location
from which the resource is located, i.e., city, state.
The placement of a domain name which is not generic
within the "Title" is not appropriate, unless your
domain name is a major recognizable brand name.

The second metatag is the "Description" which is
usually 25-30 words to form a complete sentence which
best describes one's goods and services.

And the very last category - "Keywords" are also
somewhat limited to 15-16 words which can be plural
and compound in nature. Again, avoid multiple entries
which could be mistaken as "spamdexed entries" which
is defined as the loading, and submission of
repetitive words into a particular metatag category.
"Spamdexing" when discovered on a webpage and reported
to Google's spamreport.com can result in the
elimination of your website from their search
directory.

Here's an example of a very highly-placed website on
Google.com: Begin with the very "generic" search query
"sandwiches downtown los angeles," taking note to not
abbreviate Los Angeles to "LA" and of course, leave
out the parentheses ("). It will bring up some 2.4
million+ search results. Check out where "Nazos.net"
is ranked. It's on the SECOND FRONT [ranked 15]!
Again, Nazos.net's high web presence was achieved by
proper web design and placement of relevant metatags
according to Google's publication guidelines.

Good luck!
