Blog Indexing

[brucepointdi]

I submitted an article to the Auction Genius Blog about 10 days ago with my links to one new site. It still has not been indexed. However when I used my own blogs and articles for another site it was indexed in 4 days. Is it necessary to make more than one submission to the AG blog to get a site indexed?

I now have a one PR4 site and three PR3 sites which I am using to establish one way links to my new tier C sites. Will Google discount these links since they come from the same address? In other words am I wasting my time doing this? The sites are not related to new sites subject so I would assume that the spider is probably not liking these links anyway.

Just trying to get the site indexing game down pat.

I'm still trying to find the best way to index our sites.
Can anyone list down some high PR blog sites that accept comments?

I just checked both of your new sites that are mentioned in my blog and they have 30+ pages each indexed in Google? Your post was only a few hours ago, so I'm not sure why you think they're not indexed?

Linking to your own sites is tricky - unless the reasons are very obvious. If I link from auctionknowhow.com to auction-genius-course.com (example) the reasons are clear and obvious and the SEs think that's OK. Blogs are valuable for indexing because it's much easier to justify wildly disparate links.

The vacuum cleaner site is not indexed but the other site was already a PR3 site that I was just adding value to. I just checked it again using the site command and the newer http://www.vacuum-cleaner-information.com site is not indexed. I can get it indexed off my own blogs but it normally takes about a week to 10 days to get it done. I need more options for getting sites indexed and would like to use your blog whenever possible considering it has a much higher PR.

For the time being the I will use the blogs that are attached to my PR4 and PR3 sites rather than linking directly to the new sites. I appreciate your comments on this issue as I had a bad feeling about doing it.

By the way I had two sites only earn one cent a day during this past weekend. Summer really sucks.

Thanks for all the help

I am wrong the site is indexed but I have not page rank and am gray barred. I had a typo in my search command that I kept repeating. I hope that I am not in the sand box.

During summer the Internet slows to a crawl. It happens every year. Things will start picking up in September. It is always possible you are in the sand box.

Bruce: your vacuum cleaner site has about 25 pages (today) indexed - and they are not in the sandbox:

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=site%3Avacuum-cleaner-information.com%2F&btnG=Google+Search

A couple of points here:

1. Why was it 33 pages yesterday - and only 25 today? Because the SE result are all over the place! I was looking at a keyword phrase one day and it showed 38 million competitors - a couple of days later there were only 11 million. What is "right"? It doesn't matter!

2. Stop worrying about Page Rank!!! It doesn't matter. Really - it doesn't matter. Both Tim G and Jeremy/Sydney have noticed that often higher PR sites make less money than lower or non-existent PR ones.

Here's the thing - Google doesn't want us to understand what they're doing. As I've said a bazillion times, this is a numbers game, pure and simple. Build your sites, go on to the next and quit agonizing over such issues as Page Rank.

And yes, we agree about the summer. It will start picking up in about a month. :D
