Comments on: How To Tell If Search Engines, Like Google, Have Visited Your New Website http://aldebaranwebdesign.com/blog/has-google-visited-website/ Just another WordPress weblog Wed, 04 Jan 2012 22:34:09 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Jill Olkoski http://aldebaranwebdesign.com/blog/has-google-visited-website/comment-page-1/#comment-6142 Jill Olkoski Thu, 23 Jun 2011 14:41:56 +0000 http://aldebaranwebdesign.com/blog/?p=346#comment-6142 There's no guideline for backlinks - the more the better. Once Google's crawled all your pages, it might be a few weeks before your initial ranking settles down. From there, you move up by adding unique relevant content (perhaps by adding a blog to your website). As your domain ages, you might drift up a bit as well. Getting other folks to link to you is hard, blogging is the best way I've found to do that. There’s no guideline for backlinks – the more the better.

How many back links should I be getting before I begin to see my rank move up? I know it wil be differnt for each site and each website category, but there has to be some sort of guidline? 20 links? 40? 1000? My site is www.belly-fat-workouts.com and I have only a few back links, but should I be posting more on my home page to work up links better in google. This is all a little bit confusing to me So I looked at the site: option and I am indexed as the pages came up.

20 links? 40? 1000?

My site is http://www.belly-fat-workouts.com and I have only a few back links, but should I be posting more on my home page to work up links better in google.

This is all a little bit confusing to me

Thank you so much for the information you provided. I now know google has indexed my web page. Now I just need to figure out how to rank via my key words. I am using squidoo to build my page (trying to save money) so the Google webmaster doesn't really help me. Any other suggestions would be really appreciated.

Meta tags have nothing to do with it. I recommend making sure your site has been submitted to Google and making sure you have created a sitemap.xml file to help search engines find all of your pages. Google has a bunch of webmaster tools that can also give you some assistance. But if your website is brand new, it often takes weeks or months to get crawled. Hi Daniel,

While it's good that Google has visited and indexed your pages, that is no guarantee you'll get good rankings for your keywords. Necessary, but not sufficient. Try reading the information on <a href="http://www.google.com/webmasters/" rel="nofollow">Google Webmaster Central</a> to begin to learn about how to optimize your web pages. This activity takes time and patience. Hi Mushir,

The only time Google couldn't crawl your site, is if your website was down. Your own browsing is completely separate. Hi Maureen,
