I was told and have read online about how you can get on search engines faster..

I trust you guys for some very strange reasons ill not go into...lol

Any way ive read and was told by a friend that if you have a website all ready indexed on the search engines and you want a new website you have created to be indexed a little faster than the norm is to place a link of the new websites index page on your existing page that is already on the search engines...

The search engines will respider your existing page and index all of your pages on your new website...

To see what I mean check the low left corner of
http://shreddedsociety.com/'s banner. I created a gif that will hide in webpage but will allow search engines to grab all the new links I want to add to the search engines...

My question is to all of you will or rather does this work??????

You cannot get pages indexed faster than the "norm" because there is no norm. SEs find pages and sites through links from other pages. It that page gets indexed the your page will be indexed soon after.

Yep, Great idea, hide links on a page!! Nobody has ever done that before! Roll eyes

When would you like to be penalised/banned ??

Well, from my experience, having good content and nice clean code will get you quite far in terms of SEO.

Not too sure why but, I think it may be because SEs (particulaly Google) "look" at the content and index that. As for the code side of it, let me try put it this way:
Is it easy for you to read your code? Is it easy for others to read your code?
Remember, a SE is a machine, and it doesn't understand things that humans might so, sifting through a lot of code to get to the actual content may be a bit of a pain.

linking form one websie to another is how the spider crawls the internet and that's the main form of indexing. The submit url service also is used to crawl the web for websites that have no links.

I think it works a lot better to concentrate on getting as many links to your site as possible, then let Google find your site on it's own.

Google follows links. If you have links pointing to your site then google will be able to find your site via those links.

The more links you have the better. To an extent Google evaluates sites based on how popular they are. Popularity is based on the number of sites that find it linkworthy.

Would a site map be like an index page?

I think I might have jumped fprward leaving a few basics behind... thats never good.

Also I find it alot eaiser to look @ some elses work and figure out how they did something than have them try to explain it...

Oh you go here and login, https://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps/login
(you need to register if youre not registered yet, its free)

You read information there, and learn about sitemaps. (theres a thread here that links to an automatic sitemap.xml generator for websites)

Now upload them to your root directory, (public_html) then direct google to that file.

The purpose of which is to let google identify your pages, it also gives you statistics of your pages indexed and ranks....

The best way to get your site into google is most probably just by getting links pointing to your site that are on other sites and are already crawled by Google on a regular basis.

I've actually found this to more or less be true. I've tried two methods when I finished a new site for a client. The first is going to Google's form and adding it to be indexed. This tends to take a few weeks.

The second is to mention it in my business web design blog. That normally gets it indexed in less than a week.

I just used the second method for a site on Monday, and am checking Google daily. I'll let you know on what day it gets indexed.

msn is much fater to index and google will crawl msn's results as well. set up a yahoo account and submit yourself to yahoo as well.

just get a link from a site that is listed in google and google will find you. preferable you should get a site to link to you that has at least a 1/10 pagerank.

I was taking care of a sick kid and unable to check Google yesterday, but I just checked this morning, and that site has been added.

So 3-4 days is how long it took with the linking method. And the site it's linked from is only PR1.

Been there, done that, did no good.

Site map that is. Theres more to it than just creating a site map, you also have to create a google index url so they can find the sitemap. Anyway they will tell you all this, when you try to submit your sitemap. Smiling

there's a theory that having a blog will get your site crawled mor eoften, but not initially quicker.
