    Here is some quick information on how to get indexed by Google, and other major search engines...


    1. Go to http://www.google.com/webmasters and create an account.

    2. Add your site to your Webmasters Central account and verify it.

    3. Create a XML Sitemap, below is a free program to create it.
    - www.vigos.com/products/gsitemap/

    4. Upload this sitemap to your root web directory.

    5. Place a link to this xml sitemap on your homepage.

    6. Add this sitemap to your Google Webmasters Central Account.

    7. Open notepad, create a file called robots.txt

    8. Add the below code into it.

    User-agent: *
    Disallow:
    sitemap: http://[B]your-site-here.com/sitemap.xml[/B]

    9. Upload it this robots.txt to your root web directory.

    Wait a few weeks, this should get you indexed asap, you can use site:yoursite.com via google search to see what has been indexed. Good Luck.

    why should you be worried about getting indexed? just focus on learning link building and you will get up there. but the process pretty hard. nothing come easy. success coming for people willing to learn and taking action. and don't expect to get the secret from people cause you won't get it. because most secret are acquire thru experience. and usually really working secret won't be on the open without money involved unless you are a close friend. that's how internet work from my experience.

    The steps outlined by Ssandecki are a good starting point.

    You really need to get in links to your forum. For a start, write a few articles and submit them to some of the top article directories like ezinearticles.com. Look through this forum, you'll find plenty of good link-building advice.
