On most of occasions bloggers are on mercy of googlebot to get their blogs indexed in google.But there are ways to virtually dictate googlebot to index your blogs.One such technique,which is much talked about,is to place your link on a website with high page rank.But for this you have to spend some bucks because not even a single webmaster will exchange a link with a new blog.Here in this post I will tell you five tips to get your blogs indexed free and fast.

With these tips google will index your blog within 24-48 hrs. and best part is its all free.You can use one tip or all five tips together.OK,then get yourself a fresh cup of coffee and read out this post.

#Tip-1-Comment on a page with high page rank and place your link as signature, then ping the url on which you have commented.

How does it work?

The principal is simple.You placed you link on a blog or forum with high pagerank and then told googlebot that you have placed the link by pinging the page on which you have commented.

Let us suppose you commented on a page, www.exampleblog.com/post/html. Now go to autopinger.com and ping this url.Googlebot will come to crawl that url and while crawling it will find you link.Isn't this simple??

#Tip-2- Sign up for a account in google webmaster tools and verify your site.

How Does it work?-

Google webmasters tool is completely free service.Once you sign up for a free account,you will be asked to add your site.Add your blog's url there.Then search for the verify link there and click it.Choose metatag as verification method.Gooogle will provide you with a metatag.Copy and paste that metatag into your template just beside opening "head" tag.

Now you are done.Just click the "Verify" button.Googlebot will crawl your blog to find the metatag you have pasted and in the process it will index your blog.

#Tip-3- Sign up for a google analytics account and place tracking code in you template.

The working of this tip is pretty much similar to tip-2.Once you place tracking code in your template and hit "check" button, googlebot crawls your site to ensure you have placed the code right.Again in the process of checking, your blog is indexed.

#Tip-4- Sign up for an Adsense account with your blog's url.

You might get confused here but its true that you can use adsense for indexing your site faster apart from earning money.Let me explain things in some detail-

What happens when you sign up for an adsense account?You get a message saying-"Your site will be reviewed before acceptance in our program".Now,who reviews your site/blog.They are not human editors ,instead googlebot reviews the sites for adsense program.

Now you can guess it.After you sign up for adsense, google bot or spiders crawl your website to review it and also indexes it while reviewing.Normally reviewing is fast ,taking about 24-48 hours and in next 24 hrs. after a review your site is indexed. Isn't this cool !!!!!!

#Tip-5- Make minor modifications in your pages and ping the pages each time you make a modification.

This tip is straight forward.Just deliberately make some minor changes in your pages and ping the permalink of the pages in which you have made modificatios.You can use any pinging services.I use autopinger.com for this purpose as they ping more than 50 pinging services on one click.


Important note:These tips work best when used in conjunction with each other.Best practice would be to use all 5 tips concurrently.

Now,I guess, you are able to dictate googlebot for indexing your blog faster and that too without spending a single penny from your pocket.

Enjoy !!!!!

Most of the successful bloggers get tons of traffic from comments and forums.But what most of the bloggers and SEO experts will tell you is to just drop a comment in some blog or forum and leave a signature with your blog/website url.But question here is , is that all you can harvest from commets and forums? The answer is, NO !!!! 99.99% of bloggers and webmasters underutilize the potential of comments and forums to drive traffic and increase page rank of their sites.

In this post I will tell you 5 tips to milk most out of comments and forums.So,apply some glue on your seat and get ready to learn those tips.Here comes the tip no.1.

#Tip-1- Find twenty blogs or forums with high readership and page rank and another twenty which don't use "no follow" tag in comment section.

Why this is important-Let us start the explanation with an easy question.Why do you comment? Most of you would have answered this question like this-

"We comment to get traffic and increase google page rank."

Very well !! There is no doubt that this is correct answer.Now, what will happen if you are commenting in a blog or forum with low readership or those which use "no follow" tag? Yes, you guessed it right, you will not be able to get traffic and increase page rank.So, it is important to select blogs and forums before commenting.

How can we know that a blog has high readership or it doesn't uses "no follow" tag?- The answer to first question is easy.A blog or forum with high subscribers volume and comment volume has invariably high readership.To find out whether a blog is using "no follow" tags or not is somewhat tricky thing but I will tell you about this in some other post of mine.

So,now you have selected your target blogs and forums.Once your selection is complete just go on to tip no.2

#Tip-2- Don't Spam.Make useful comments which help the readers and start a conversation between you and readers or/and blog author.

While going through many blogs I come across many spammy comments ,like,

"Great post!!!! Keep it up."

And some even worse than this-

"Hey visit my blog www.example.com".

Most of the times these comments are not able to make their way out of moderation filter if blog author has kept moderation on.So,my advice here is don't spam, it will not help and sometimes even harm you.

How to make useful comments? A useful comment is one which starts a conversation between you and readers.There are three ways one can start a conversation in blogs and forums-

1) Ask questions relevant to theme of blog/forum post.

2) Write about some point which you think blog author has missed.

3) Throw away a tip or trick which you think can help the readers.

By doing this, you generate curiosity in readers mind and if they become curious enough they will visit your site for details.

# Tip-3- Use anchor-text to link to your website from a comment on blog or forum and make it bold.

While using anchor-text is very much important both for readers and search engines as it gives a basic idea about your blog/site, making anchor text bold is important generally for search engines.

You might be knowing that search engines give particular importance to text written in bold.So,when you make your link bold then that link will be treated as special by search engines and your site thus will get some extra weightage over others.

I don't know why people don't make their links in bold even when almost every blog and forum allow them to do so? Believe me this is a very good SEO technique which very little people know.So, next time whenever you are commenting on a blog just make your links bold.

#Tip-4- Don't just place links of your homepage but also of relevant inner pages.

Again this is very little known technique.I have seen most of the bloggers placing links of just their homepage.But I will suggest you to place links of inner pages also as this can boost page rank of your inner pages as well as homepage.

This is particularly true when you have successfully started a conversation.When you start a conversation you post comments on the same page time and again.There is no point placing one link time and again on same webpage.Instead place unique links every time you comment on same webpage or thread.

#Tip-5- Ping the url on which you have commented.

Here you might be thinking what pinging has to do with comments.OK, then let me explain things in some detail.Well, you have posted an excellent comment on a blog or forum and also placed a link of one of your pages.But this link will be of no importance in increasing your page rank unless search engines index that link.This is where pinging can help you.Pinging ensures that your link will be indexed and will be indexed faster.

Let us take an example,Suppose you have commented on a page ,say, www.example.com/2007/08/post.html.Once you have commented ,just go to any pinging service and ping this url.I use autopinger.com for this purpose as they ping about 50 pinging services at one click.


Now I think you will be able to get most out of comments and forums.I can assure you that these five tips will certainly prove beneficial to take your blog to next level.

HAPPY AND ADVANTAGEOUS COMMENTING !!!!
