Does anyone know how long it takes for search engines such as google, yahoo and bing to index my blog? I can't remember when I submitted my blog to search engines. Must have been 1 or 2 months already but the only traffic that I get is from google only. cry.gif

Submit your website sitemap to Bing Webmaster Tools so that it can be reliably indexed. Bing doesn't have your website yet.

Thank you thank you....but how do you know bing doesn't have my site? I mean I remember I submitted my site to bing(not really sure about it). Maybe my site is still in the waiting list to be indexed? If I submit my blog to bing and yahoo again, will they block/ban my blog?

Bing/Yahoo are much slower with indexing/ranking sites, its much quicker to build backlinks to your site rather than submit to search engines for indexing. If a page doesnt have backlinks all search engines see it as not important.

Hi GaYoon, there is really no need to submit your blog to search engines. As they crawl the web and the links, they will index your website accordingly.

Even if you submit your blog to them, all you are doing is actually getting your website into search engines, which do not mean that your blog will rank for keywords. Thus, you won't be getting a lot of traffic too.

Yahoo and Bing tend to take longer to index websites as compared to Google. This is also the case if you are trying to rank for certain keywords on these search engines.

Hope the explanation above helps.  smile.gif
