How To Get You Site Crawled by Google in Two Hours

more or less

Ever wondered how the pros get a site post or page crawled by a Google bot spider in just a couple of hours or, at the very least, get the Googlebot to come and say hello? It really doesn’t matter if the site in question is new or old, it only needs to be a site of low or no PR and, this method can be employed by any site with a page rank of zero or less strait up to a page rank of 6 or even higher.
Come to think of it,
this technique can be employed along side any site building technology as well. HTML to PHP, SWH to FLA any site of any technology, any site of any PR, any owner of any level of expertise, can use this technique to bring the Googlebot calling HALLELUIAH!

OK enough preamble. If you’re a WordPress fan you have probably heard of the Google Sitemaps Plugin by Arni Brachhold. An excellent utility that much like the Google Site Map Generator by SOFTplus (both now also for YAHOO!) adhere to and utilize the xml site map protocols defined over at sitemaps.org. Now the best thing about these two programs is they both create the xml.gz file. This file type employs a slight compression for fast uploading by the Google bot. What’s good about this is Google’s want to be pinged. In fact Google wants to be made aware of your new information so badly that, once your site is indexed, you can see your post or page in the index in mere hours.

OK so you want to know how to ping then. here is the format,

http://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps/ping?sitemap=
http%3A%2F%2Fwww.YOURDOMAIN.com%2Fsitemap.xml.gz

Simply copy and paste that into your web browsers address pane and after clicking you should see a message similar to this;

Sitemap Notification Received

Your Sitemap has been successfully added to our list of Sitemaps to crawl. If this is the first time you are notifying Google about this Sitemap, please add it via http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/ so you can track its status. Please note that we do not add all submitted URLs to our index, and we cannot make any predictions or guarantees about when or if they will appear.

Keep in mind that you don’t want to set any interior page to more than .5 for update frequency and, don’t ping Google more often than you need to.
