Tips on how to get your blog indexed fast by Google

• One of the fastest way to let Google index your site is comment on the other blogs. Those blogs are regularly crawled and indexed by Google in less than 24 hr. When you comment on their blog, Google bot will follow the link you have left in the comment to your new site and index it. I also like this tip because I can exposure myself with other bloggers, make friends and be more involved in the blogsphere.
• My favorite blog to comment is Blogussion and FamousBloggers. They have very good posts, the active community and comments are CommentLuv enabled.
• Submit your site to social bookmarking site like Digg, Mixx, Reddit, YHacker News and lots more is another great way to fasten the indexing process. These social bookmarking site is highly appreciated by Google and crawled very often. That also decrease the index time of your website.
• Another way to get your blog indexed fast by Google is pinging. For me, I only ping once for every new post and I often use pingomatic service. It’s free and what it does is it send the small notice to search engines that your blog has been updated so index it.
• You also have to add your website to Google Webmasters central and submit a sitemap to it. For sitemap generation in WordPress, I use the plug-in called Google XML Sitemap.
