Getting indexed on Google
posted in Deaf, General, Hearing Loss, Search Engine, Technology |As a webmaster, one of the biggest challenge is getting my websites listed on Googe and staying there.
It is simply getting harder and harder just to get Google to “index” your website, meaning that Google knows your website exist. And not only that, but sometimes Google simply “de-index” your website for no reason at all.
Now the latest strategy to get your website recognized on Google, Yahoo and MSN is quality backlinks.
What does that means?
If you have a website that’s listed on Deafbiz.com Links directory, the link from deafbiz.com to your website is a backlink. And if your website is related to deafness or hearing loss, then the backlink will score “higher” from deafbiz.com than from something that’s totally unrelated to deafness, like cars.com.
There’s only so much I can do to find new websites to be listed on deafbiz.com. The quickest way to be listed on deafbiz.com and get indexed on Google is to fill out a link submission form .
Another way to get indexed is to be linked from other blogs, social network (myspace.com) and community rating “listings” service like Swicki.
I just signed up a new one today: Listible
I don’t know what’s the proper term to call Swicki and Listible so for now I call them Community Rating Listings. It’s almost like “Digg” where people can vote up or down. In the case of Swicki and Listible, people can vote up or down whether the website is related to the theme.
This is also another way to find the best websites without digging through million of garbage and pretend deaf websites.
There’s many more “community rating listings” websites so I would appreciate if you can tell me which one are the most popular.
