    you can follow these steps to index your site..

    1. Don‘t use automated submission services provided by some ISPs.
    2. Try to include a site by setting up links to it or through having outbound links.
    3. If this doesn‘t result in the new site being included in the index, use the ‗Add URL‘ feature of the search engine.
    4. Resubmission isn‘t necessary
    5. Consider using Google sitemaps for large sites.

    Strange I use Extreme tracking for my stats and keywords and although I see the googlebot from tim to time usually once a Month:

    crawl-66-249-72-203.googlebot.com IP Address 66.249.72.203
    State / Region California
    City Mountain View

    I have never seen the yahoo or microsoft bot? I assume they would have the word bot in the visitor title? Where do they 'hit from'?

    Usually it takes only 24 - 72 hours to get your sit indexed. I looked in the header for a noindex tag and did not see anything. Do you have a robots.txt file? If so, make sure you do not have a /* entry - or anything else that would stop the search engines from indexing the HTML root.

    You already submitted a sitemap to google - good.

    Its its been a week, there is something else at play here. check the site index for a robots,txt file and take a look at it. That is the first place I would start.

    Make sure you have some backlinks - social bookmarking is a good place to start. The last site I opened, google knew about it before I had the first link or even had the site setup. I bought the domain, waited about 2 weeks, I had not even set the account up on the webserver yet, and google already knew about the site. So if its been a week for you, something strange is going on.

Then i submited the http://www.logolitic.com/logos.html page and still no visitors.

    There is a world of difference in getting google to index your site as to getting visitors to it.
    The second statement is dependant on where google rank you after the indexing and there is no easy answer.

    You are in the right place for pointers though......

    It depends on the number and type of links that are pointing to your site. Most of my sites get indexed within 8 to 12 hours, some times lesser.

    It usually takes 2 to 4 weeks for Google to index your site. Yahoo! might index it in 1 to 3 weeks.

    Not indexed on G or Y yet I see.
    I see your forum posts with your link are indexed though. :)

    Your site is getting noticed so it will be just a matter of days if that long before you're there.
    You got a fairly good SEO score on the site.

    It can take 5 mins to more than a week or month even! Pining to search engines, Blogs search engines, communities, social bookmarking, Yahoo answers and sitemap submission in google webmaster's tool will make it much more easier and faster.

    That seems like a long time to get indexed.

    I made a post for you that should help you get indexed.

    The only blog comments that will help you get indexed are dofollow ones. Most normal blog comments won't help.

    You can also comment on a blog that has top commenters or recent comments plugins - the link to your site will show up on their main blog page and should also help you.

    Also, I would fix the link to your homepage: use http://www.logolitic.com/ and drop the /index.html (shouldn't have anything to do with indexing, though).

    Just concentrate getting links for quality website and Google will finally find you.
    The alternatives is to get lots of traffic by sending email using credit based safelist,
    create a video and submit to youtube, yahoo etc and Google will easily find you.

    But I did worry such an issues when I had my first site up but no more
    Since you can't just rely on search engine to get traffic and for example some reasons
    one of my blogs on a very competitive term raking top 20-30 in google but suddenly
    got removed from the Google index which i didn't do any black hat techniques
    and if you totally rely on search engine to get traffic, your website will die soon.

    so do mix with other traffic strategies such as email, twitter, facebook, myspace, youtube
    etc rather than just focus search engines.

    hopes that help.

    Ok, so i think www.logolitic.com got indexed, but my webmaster tools doesn`t see it that way and i guess is because of the www so i need to do a 301 redirect. I have the .htaccess file but i don`t know what i really should write in it so please some help here. Another thing is that the sitemap give me this error:

    All the URLs in your Sitemap are set to the same priority (not the default priority). Priority indicates the importance of a particular URL relative to other URLs on your site, and doesn't impact your site's performance in search results. If all URLs have the same priority, Google can't tell which are more important.

    How should i fix it ? Thank you in advance !

    I got my afiliate site indexed in just under 6 hours

    1. I submitted it to social bookmarking sites
    2. I pinged it to 100 sites
    3. I did yahoo answers leading people to want to click the link
    4. I blog commented about 20 blogs
    5. I wrote 2 articles

    6 hours later site: http://www.igainmusclelosefat.com was up and runing, all pages linked

    Now that's just indexed, that's no page ranking.

    MSN has me on the 1st page 2nd spot in 3 days, yahoo has me on page 3. I'm still waiting on google for page rank.
