How long for indexing - manual submission

    Good day all,

    I have a new site and I submitted my sitemap a few days back to google. The sitemap was approved and in OK status.

    After a few days though, my site is still not indexed.

    When I built a couple other sites in wordpress...I used Google XML Sitemaps plugin to create and submit my sitemap. On my other sites, they were indexed within 2-3 hours after creating it.

    What's going on, why is this taking so long? Anyone else experience the same duration after manual submitting?

    Also, yahoo is the same.

    Thanks

    blogspot and wordpress pages get indexed really fast because they have really fast crawl rates. Due to the high trust and PR associated with the domain the googlebot comes more often to the sites to crawl through the pages. For a brand new site it could take a few weeks to get completely indexed - I wouldn't worry too much.

    You can use social bookmarking sites to get your website indexed faster.

    Have patience... Just keep on adding new, fresh, unique content and they'll index you.

    thanks all,

    I have a bunch of pages, it looks to have indexed my forum homepage and the forum calendar page. The forum is only part of my site, I have about 20-30 internal links inlcuding the homepage which I need indexed asap. Does this seem normal to your experiences? I think i'm going to stick to wordpress for now on, the entire site gets indexed in like an hour.

    You have the liberty to submit your xml file to the search engines and they too will crawl it sooner but indexing is a major question with search engines. Sometimes, you will be lucky to have all your pages indexed in no time but in other cases, you have to wait. It is a factor purely decided by the search engines. Till such time, we can wait with bated breath :)

    Ya, I did submited my XML's weeks ago to google and yahoo. Yahoo accepted it but my site doesn't exist in the SE. In google I have the forum main page and a random calendar page indexed..ridiculous. I have tons of pages..I would be happy if even the homepage was indexed for now...

    I spent months building this site and it would suck to take it down b/c i'm thinking about converting all of the data to wordpress so at least it gets indexed before I die...i'm going to wait until January and then take it down, I really don't want to wait for ever for this to be indexed.

    It takes too long if you just submited your sitemap from weböaster tools. Webmaster tools shownig and doing everything very slowly. So I always get backlink from social bookmarking sites but it realy depends on luck about the indexing time

    I use blogs in almost all my site specially self hosted wordpress, it get indexed within few hours from the built time. Social bookmarking and social interaction website are also good for backlinks.

    Why bother manual submission, while you can get indexed quietly fast using link building..
    however, a simple link at your signature here in DP will get your website indexed soon ;)

    i've had sites get indexed in a day, and others in a month, google takes time for some and not for others. i have found that wordpress sites get indexed faster.

    How is that done? I think it will do us all good if you can do some brief explanation on this social bookmarking thing

    Thanks
