how long does it take for a website to appear on google

My website www.Flashjunkies.com its been up for a few weeks

Its been SEO

I verified with google ( it says its indexed )

but i still can't find it when i look for it in google ( the google bot its been on the site for 92 hours so far )

1.I know it takes a few weeks even months .... but is there anything else i can do to speed up the process or make it rank up on google ?

2.I never understood the alexa ranking ? whats that and how do you get a higher ranking

 

You need to be building backlinks. That is the most important factor in getting rankings on most search engines. You should read some seo tutorials, especially ones about link building. There are a lot of strategies that you can use, but you want to make sure you do it right.

 

About the Alexa Ranking, that is just a toolbar ranking that gives you a popularity score based on all other people using that toolbar. Since it is a limited sample of people, the results are not very accurate. The stats tend to skew towards webmaster/seo/tech websites as those are the people using the toolbar the most. Most people don't bother worrying about this ranking unless they want to sell ads.

 

Try an SEO tool of some sort and you might find out why?

 

It's just a case of being patient and using ethical methods to build links.

 

It took me about three weeks to see mine in position 120+ for one of my keywords, be patient.

 

From what I see your site can be easily found in Google. Just write the name of the site in Google and it's there. And well indexed.

 

SEO takes time and if it's very competitive it can take years ...

 

just be patient and keep adding content

 

It boils down to your target keywords. If your keywords are too competitive, it'll take months, even years, before you appear at the top of search results.

 

well yeah the keywords are kinda competitive its a flash game site and there are hundreds of sites like that out there .... with the same keywords .....


Whats the purpose of backlinks ?

ok so for now i just have to wait and try to build some backlinks ?


What is i change servers after a while will that take me down from google and have to do it all over again ?

 

maybe you need to start building your links to quality and related sites and then always update your site with a fresh content. alexa rankings is a measurement of the traffic flow of your website the lower the count the better.

 

If your site has been indexed which you check with the site:www.yoursite.com the next step is to SEO which you have said you've done. The next thing would be to begin with a marketing campaign which consists of building quality backlinks towards your site. You can do this through do follow blogs, article marketing, press releases, and social bookmarking. You should also invest some time with researching the competition of your niche for a the specific keywords you would like to be on top for.

 

For your site name I find you on page 2 in Google, however as mentioned above to rank well for your desired keywords can take time, just be patient and keep working at it

Dee

 

i think there must be some other factors to let google index your sites, for example, www.suyang.net, about 1 week already, still not indexed by google.

 

ok so backlinks is bassicly advertising and putting links on other sites and draw traffic from there

yeah they keywords might be a problem because for example flash games its a very used term for all the flash game websites so its going to be hard to pop on the top with that


An my other question like i was saying if i change the server will that be a problem on google do i have to start again indexing and all that ?

 

Depends upon the work which you are doing for your site. Using SEO tactics will definitely take some time; may be few weeks, days or months too. Just have patience and continue to build backlinks to your site.

 

ok i tried the methods to see if the site is indexed even if on the google tools it says it is but its not working


site:http: //yoururl.com/

 

If you want your site to appear in SERPs, then you will need to keep updating your site. Also try to get some relevant and quality backlinks: and you will need to wait for sometime. New sites appear in SERPs after some time period.

 

If your site is brand new, you probably want to develop links over time in a fairly consistent manner. If you grow x links this month then you want to create x or more the next month. And that number sets the baseline for the following month.
If your competitors are a number of years old then it is probably going to take at least a year to catch up unless they are bad at marketing and link building or you have a great marketing idea that will help you build many organic links.
Having the Alexa toolbar installed gives you the opportunity to see the Alexa rankings of the sites you visit...there are countless web surfers out there who do not use the toolbar and would probably never consider doing so, wherein lies the Alexa's major limitation. There are websites which receive a steady and decent amount of traffic but whose Alexa rankings do not necessarily reflect this for their visitors' browsers are not equipped with the Alexa toolbar. So not to worry too much about it..
