You mean indexed or ranked in the SERPS? being ranked in the SERPS requires time and patience. Being indexed may take a few hours to a couple of days.
I think it can get ranked only if your keyword has no / low competitors. But it can get indexed within 10 minutes, like my blog.
The term for this is getting sandboxed, right? I've heard it can take up to a month/year/more depending on the keyword. I would hope that this is not the case...Anyone have insight?
I have created severak blogs, articles and they all have been indexed within hours or a couple of days at the most. I woulld have to say I do not believe in the sandbox. As long as the site, blog has original content it should be indexed.
Creating my own blog network, do follow blog commenting, directory and article submission, social bookmarking, link swaps.
it can be done for a very very low competition keyword, keyword that only you have been competing other than that it is not possible to rank in 3 hours or 3 weeks in a keyword that has a high competition.
I don't think so.. for me as a newbie, just to get index by google need a couple of days... And seems it's already take a longer time just for to get index...
You can get both ranked and indexed in the same day. There's nothing magical about getting it done. I created an entire post on how to do this: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=1537667
Yeah i went to webpronews read some articles posted relevant comments and was indexed and ranked the next day.i have done the same thing 3 times.google must love that site spiders it constantly and they let anyone post a link in your comment.
