    is it normal ?

    thank you.

    Yes, it's normal for new sites.

    Getting links from a PR5 (or near) page should help to speed up the indexing process as well as the frequency of future spidering.

    external links from a few sites will help.

    google usually takes MUCH longer than msn&yahoo to be included if you dont have powerful backlinks, don't sweat on it.

    Are you sure?

    I just did a little test. Dotster gave me the .info version of one of my domain for free, probably in hopes that I would renew it when it expires. So, I created a dummy page with links to my real domains. I created the page on 3-feb-2005 at around 16:00 and referenced it in my blog on my.opera.com. Google spidered it at 21:58 according to my web logs. It is in the directory now.

    I did not submit it to google. I merely added it to my links on the free "my.opera" blog. The domain has been parked for several months since dotster gave it to me and has never been promoted.

    I had a theory that the rumors of "never use submit a page" were true and I am pretty sure this confirms it. I used "submit a page" to get a different site in google a month ago and it took almost a week to get listed. That site even had real content. Simply referenceing a dummy link page in an opera blog got it listed in under six hours.

    Go figure.

    yes, but how many pages are in the index and what search term did you use to find it in the index? I've seen google give the first result to an empty/parked domain that matched the searched for keyterm, with and without descriptions in the serps.

    access...
    i like your avatar.

    You know when fluoridation first began?
    I... no, no. I don't, Jack.
    Nineteen hundred and forty-six. 
    Nineteen forty-six, Mandrake. 
    How does that coincide with your post-war Commie conspiracy, huh? 
    It's incredibly obvious, isn't it? 
    A foreign substance is introduced into our precious bodily fluids 
    without the knowledge of the individual. 
    Certainly without any choice. 
    That's the way your hard-core Commie works.

    The entire site (one whole page) is in the index. I did NO SEO on the page. No metas. No nothing.

    The supprizing thing is it came back as #1 for the only thing resembling a keyword on the page, my user name, #2 going to my zeal profile and #3 to my blog. All three being recent additions. If the "rocket to the top and plumet out of sight" theory is true then these three sites should vanish from the ratings over the next week or two.

    I did the test to see how long it took google to find and index my site and to see if it got inserted faster by simply adding a link to a free blog or by using google's add-url. I was not performing an extensive SEO test.

    I would say that from the limited sample set of 1 for each method, 6 hours to get inserted by linking in a free blog vs 3 or 4 days by using add url is not a sufficient sample to be statistically significant. It is, however, interesting.

    I wrote this mail to a SEO Service:

    > How much does it costs to be included within 2 weeks
    > (i don't care about positioning at the moment, just
    > let me know the price for a google index inclusion)
    >
    > Thank you.
    > DARIO

    This is what they answered me.
    What do you think about ?

    > For $50 I can have you in google within 3 days max.
    >
    > Let me know.

    THey are just going to link to you off of either a big site or a popular forum like this one. Why not just buy the links yourself and cut out the middleman?

    If the link I posted from here plus your sig doesn't get you listed, perhaps your url was banned (either before or after you took ownership)

    If thats the case they won't be able to deliver for $50

    Thank you.

    i also think that that domain is banned from Google (but i don't understand why)
    If they agree i would offer to pay them 25$ now and 25$ when (and if) work is done.

    If they accept is not so bad , because a good link can't cost less than 25$.
    Have you other advices ?

    How long have you owned it? Archive.org shows a cache from Sept 2001

    Archive.org does exactly what it says on the tin. It keeps an archive of different sites.

    According to them techdo.com was indexed back in 2001 with just an under construction page for a few years, then just a blank page it seems for quite a while.

    Then it had some kind of redirect to an ad.

    It seems strange anyway
