i have been looking for this for so long, thanks!

[kawebspy]

i also tried it. I just wonder if the site i recommended will be included. tnx

[markhutch]

I would guess there is some kind of manual review involved in this process. Could take some time before it is accepted.

[Shoemoney]

unless your url structure has 5 digits
you have 5 authors with profiles
you have 3 editors with profiles

forget it

[Shoemoney]

ok anyone who has questions should ask google news directly. My comments are only from my experience.

[JKE]

Anyone here with an RSS/Atom/XML news feed hit me up with a msg, i don't have numerical requirements hehe, or you can just post the direct URL to it too

[markhutch]

When I ask them to review my site, they did so, but said they were not accepting personal blog sites at this time. However, they did say they would keep my information on file in case things changed in the future. I did notice their visit in my logs and I do believe it was from a real person and not just an automated bot. The email they sent was very polite and not in a "form email" type of format.

[maldives]

Hopeless case. I have given up.

[shaileshk]

Hi even my site also not accept ans my site news update every 30 min
i forgot google email sent me we not add your site in over google news somthing like that

[Prestige]

I've seen here a link that lets you suggest news resources for google news.
I've also seen some people mention that you need X editors, authors and others..

But do some one know where can I find a credible information on what's needed
to be made before submitting as a news-source?

Doesn't google have any guidelines for that?

[gn77]

Is there anyone here who has been successfully able to add his/her site rss to google news?

Most of the feeds there belong to websites of brick-and-mortar newspapers..

[Sem-Advance]

Most of the feeds there belong to websites of brick-and-mortar newspapers..

Well something to be thankful for....until it's opened up to the masses looking to spam......from some of the posts here you can feel it like the wolves baited breath,,,

[shaileshk]

i also seen 1 site have not proper format xml (RSS FORMAT) file then also news display in google news !

[Shoemoney]

From the sites I know that have been added in the last couple months they had to meet the guidelines I posted above.

[Prestige]

Most of the feeds there belong to websites of brick-and-mortar newspapers..

Depends on the category you're aiming for I guess. I think I have enough credibility to be places at news.google.com's headlines.

Question is, How? Anyone knows of any guidelines? anyone done it in the past?

[markhutch]

Depends on the category you're aiming for I guess. I think I have enough credibility to be places at news.google.com's headlines.

If you have several writers on your topic you might be right. However, the folks who wrote back to me, from Google, made it clear that they don't add individual sites or blogs to "news.google.com" at this time, but said things might change in the future. They did say that they would add my suggested site to a list of sites which would be considered if the rules change down the road.

[Prestige]

So, if I understand correctly, all I can do now is suggest my site as a credible news resource and wait for a change in the future?

How about what people said here about URL structure and authors/editors?
Is that some thing based on assumptions? Is it written some where?

[shaileshk]

Hi

as per my reguler update i have seen newkerala.com news site remove from the google news


that site use third party news service for display news like PTI for news
and Bollywood News category IANS News service


What you say about third party news service!
PTI News have many client so may be duplicate news !!!.

[freestuffpage]

Hi,

I think that it also depends on the popularity of the blog. Google Blogoscoped by Philipp is also on Google News.

I cannot post a link because I don't have the privilege yet, but you can search for Google related news at Google News for verification.

As far as I know, the blog is written by Philipp alone.

[muthuis]

Good thread.. But I don't think my site fits in..

That's bad news for me -:(

[kedaar]

Thankx for info. Actually I was not at all knowing that any one can add/recommend News URLs to google news.

[instyle]

Will this do anything good?

[evolving]

very interesting , hope it'll work

[muthuis]

Was wondering if I can add to G news. Mine is a technology site with some decent amount of content and I've seen another similar site syndicate through G news.

I thought I can also give it a try and tried submitting to it. But the info that G is asking for is very very different. It is asking for news source, location from where the news is published etc.,

Doesn't make sense for me to push a tech website into G news. My conscience does not accept it. So I gave up finally.

[shaileshk]

i found somthing related how google news indexes

Thanks very much for sharing the link with us. I find it really interesting.

[zipdisk]

I see some sites are listed by google news, that will bring a decent amount traffic to the site. I wonder how I can ask google news to list the news from my site. ThanksQ

[Obelia]

Do you actually have a news site that's eligible? I gather you need more than 1 person working on it, a fair bit of content, and story urls that are expressed as numbers rather than titles. For example:

http://www.example.com/456/ or http://www.example.com/story.php?id=456

and not http://www.example.com/my_story_title.php

[mad4]

http://news.google.co.uk/intl/en_uk/about_google_news.html#25

[zipdisk]

For me those news is essentailly some articles written by myself. Of course, I can have link like http://www.example.com/story.php?id=456. It is not difficult to do that using php

Do you have any idea on how to submit news to google news? Thanks!

[zipdisk]

http://news.google.co.uk/intl/en_uk/about_google_news.html#25

THanks a lot!

[msmp3]

Did Google actually accept you just like that?

I think they would not accept me for sure. My site need to grow :D

Cool link. Thanks very much for sharing.

My day job's site has been showing up in Google News for the last year. To the best of my knowledge, we haven't formally applied to get into it.

Our items showed rather quickly in the search, usually within an hour to posting. We get a little bit of traffic, nothing significant seeing that our sector is very niche.

[seo-mumbai]

googl dont accept ower feeds easly i think, 1 of my friend tryed many times but google dint accepted

[PinoyIto]

How can I include my news site to google? What are the requirements, is there a place to submit it or they do the crawling?

[cellularnews]

They tend to make that decision internally.

The basic criteria "seems" to be that you need to be a legit, decent sized news organisation with a reguarly updated front page of news content.
