So how can you get
your new website discovered by the Googlebot? Here are some great ways. The
best part is that some of the following will help you get referral traffic to
your new website too!
·
Create a Sitemap – A sitemap is an XML document on your website’s server that
basically lists each page on your website. It tells search engines when new
pages have been added and how often to check back for changes on specific
pages. For example, you might want a search engine to come back and check your
homepage daily for new products, news items, and other new content. If your
website is built on WordPress, you can install the Google XML Sitemaps
plugin and have it
automatically create and update your sitemap for you as well as submit it to
search engines. You can also use tools such as the XML Sitemaps Generator.
how to create sitemap.xml
file
for any website:
(1)first go to website
https://www.xml-sitemaps.com/
"http://smallseotools.com/xml-sitemap-generator/"
Enter your website url & click on generate
& download sitemap.xml file
& upload this to your website ..
Download the sitemap file here and upload it
into the domain root folder of your site (yourdomainname.com).
Check that sitemap is showing for you at
http://yourdomainname.com/sitemap.xml, go to your Google Webmaster account and
add your sitemap URL.
·
Submit Sitemap to Google Webmaster Tools – The first place you should take your sitemap
for a new website is Google Webmaster Tools. If you don’t already have one, simply create
a free Google Account, then sign up for Webmaster Tools. Add your new site to
Webmaster Tools, then go to Optimization > Sitemaps and add the link to your
website’s sitemap to Webmaster Tools to notify Google about it and the pages
you have already published. For extra credit, create an account with Bing and
submit your sitemap to them via their Webmaster Tools.
·
Install Google Analytics – You’ll want to do this for tracking purposes regardless, but it
certainly might give Google the heads up that a new website is on the horizon.
·
Submit Website URL to Search Engines – Some people suggest that you don’t do this
simply because there are many other ways to get a search engine’s crawler to
your website. But it only takes a moment, and it certainly doesn’t hurt things.
So submit your website URL to Google by signing into your Google Account and
going to the Submit URL option in Webmaster Tools. For extra credit, submit your site to Bing. You can use the anonymous tool to submit URL’s below the
Webmaster Tools Sign In – this will also submit it to Yahoo.
·
Create or Update Social Profiles – As mentioned previously, crawlers get to
your site via links. One way to get some quick links is by creating social
networking profiles for your new website or adding a link to your new website
to pre-existing profiles. This includes Twitter profiles, Facebook pages,
Google+ profiles or pages, LinkedIn profiles or company pages, Pinterest
profiles, and YouTube channels.
·
Share Your New Website Link – Once you have added your new website link to
a new or pre-existing social profile, share it in a status update on those
networks. While these links are nofollow, they will still alert search engines
that are tracking social signals. For Pinterest, pin an image from the website
and for YouTube, create a video introducing your new website and include a link
to it in the video’s description.
·
Create Offsite Content – Again, to help in the link building process, get some more
links to your new website by creating offsite content such as submitting guest
posts to blogs in your niche, articles to quality article directories, and
press releases to services that offer SEO optimization and distribution. Please
note this is about quality content from quality sites – you don’t want spammy
content from spammy sites because that just tells Google that your website is
spammy.
(2)How to use Google webmaster tools?
n order to start using Google Webmaster Tools, you should create
a new account (or use an existing one if you already have a Google account).
Visit the Google Webmaster Tools web page:
You will be asked to log in or create a new account. The
registration process is simple and you should not experience any troubles.
Once logged in with your Google account to the Google Webmaster
Tools interface you should start by adding your website. To do so click on the
Add a Site button. A pop-up will appear and you will be prompted to enter your
website domain name. Once you have done it you will see your newly-added
website under the sites menu.
The next step is to verify you are the owner of the website. For
this purpose click the Verify this site link. The easiest way to verify the
website is by uploading an HTML file. Choose this option from the Verification
Method drop-down menu and follow the verification steps:
1. Click
the Download verification file link and save the file to your local computer.
2. Connect
to your hosting account via an FTP Client or using cPanel -> File manager
and upload the downloaded file under the webroot directory (most commonly
public_html) for your domain name.
3. Verify
that the file is successfully uploaded by visiting the proposed link.
4. Finally
click the verify button.
At this point you will be redirected to the Google Webmaster
Tools dashboard for the website you have just verified.

visitors are on that…make login in analytics add your website url & get your tarcking code and paste this to all pages which you want to track.
