The arcle was made by me and an be found on my blog HERE I would really appreciate if you could post your opinions on these 5 methods and comment below Thanks HydroJohn!
I don't think manually adding your url to Google helps at all. Instead, just add your site to Google Webmaster Tools and submit a sitemap.
Yes Good Idea! Thanks for posting I might edit this post and add that in inseatd of adding your URL Ill see what others suggest!
I have had the best success with point #2..I've seen page's of mine indexed only hours after adding a sig link in the forums im most active at (put all together is a total of about 5k posts) It's great to be able to get site's and page's indexed so quickly!!
There are many more ways to get indexed fast. Post an dummy classified ad in Craiglist. Put your link in Wikipedia, if it is related to the topic Participate in Yahoo Answer for quick index, jut put your link there
Create a rss newsfeed and ping google and technorati. I have found the feedfinder takes just minutes after you ping it.
I think a better article would be how to get Google to index you more frequently (but you have to start somewhere, right?)
I guess some people misinterpret getting indexed. (yes it happens to the best of us) getting you indexed is an easy task... getting ranked is another matter altogether.
