Anyone can very easily create his/her own blog. You can either purchase your own domain for blog, or you can make a blog for free on free blog hosting websites. The real work starts after the creation of blog; you need to submit it on search engines and blog directories.
Submitting your blog is just like submitting your website, however, there are various differences which we would look here and know how to index the blog more quickly?. The three biggest search engines are Google, Yahoo and MSN; we will look the ways how to submit your blog on these search engines.
Google crawler likes sitemap to index pages, so your blog should have sitemap.It is advisable to go through your sitemap every now and then to see if it has any error. You only need to submit your blog once on Google; you dont need to submit again, but do not ignore your sitemap.
For instance, if you host your blog on Wordpress, it is good to install Wordpress sitemap plugin which is a good tool that automatically updates your sitemap and send notification to Google. Google offers free sitemap creation tools, so do not worry if your hosting website does not offer you any software. Without sitemap, you can still submit your blog on Google Webmasters. Google drags results from blog directories, so it is good to submit your blog on these blog directories, and ping your site when you revise your blog. Feed Shot is a good website to submit your blog on main blog directories.
Yahoo works differently than Google. It asks you to submit your site feed instead of sitemap. To index your blog quickly on Yahoo search engine, you need to add your blog feed on your My Yahoo page.
MSN is the third in the row after Google and Yahoo. MSN is easiest of all; submit your blog directly. However, it is a little lengthy process as it is all manual. One another easy way to submit on MSN is to submit your blog on Moreover news site, because many results which MSN shows are dragged from Moreover.
After you are done with your blog submission on Google, Yahoo, and MSN, ping it every time you update it. Before pinging your blog, you should make sure if you have also presented your blog on all of the directories listed.
These are some of the tips to submit your blog on search engines. Afterwards, you need to promote it on consistent basis by writing press releases and articles, and submit them on press release and article directories. This way you can build links and pull traffic towards your blog.
