One of the major objectives of any new site is to get a high ranking in the search engines especially Google. Google uses some filters for new web sites that can cause problems. The question everyone asks is how long does it take exactly until search engines list a new web site in the top 10 rankings where we all would like to be?
How long does it take until Google, Yahoo and MSN list a new site? When waiting on them it requires the attribute of patience.
In a recent test that one webmaster attempted to optimized his site for using a major four word keyword. After about three weeks, Yahoo and MSN showed the web site in the top 10 results but where was Google?
Even after several weeks, the same web site was nowhere to be seen in Google’s top 10 results. The highest result that his experimental web site could obtain on Google was position 30.
So what does this mean for you?
From this test result looks like Yahoo and MSN are much quicker to list new web sites in their result pages. I would also be firm in saying that concentrating on these search engines first would be of the greatest benefit to new web sites. The test confirmed that Google has slow filters for new web sites that may take longer (lot longer) for your site to get ranked.
For webmasters, the results of this test mean that they have to develop a better understanding of Google’s filters for new sites if they want to have top 10 ranking results that will benefit them.
There is no doubt that it is much more difficult for new web sites to obtain high rankings on Google but it is not impossible. You have to make sure that Google trusts your site and that you have optimized it to it’s fullest with proper keywords, content, and back links.
For the public searchers using Google, the results of this educational test means that Google might not always have the best search results for them leaving behind some great web site that have not been optimized. This is very important particularly when it’s a search for new content. With this thought in mind you may find Yahoo and MSN might be the better choice for some searches.
The question for you, Is your web site still not listed in Google’s top 10 for your main keyword?
It has been a few months now for your new web site. Is your web site still not listed in Google’s top 10 results bnut instead your site is filling up with spider webs leaving it still in the dark for the public searchers to find?
You may need to concentrate on those keywords which might be the reason for the problem. If you are attempting to target some very competitive keywords, then it will take much longer until your web site is listed in the top 10 rankings. With this thought in mind you may want to do a keyword search for those keywords not used as often but still catches Google’s sneaky attention.
If you want to get high rankings for those competitive keywords, then you need to optimize a number of really good inbound links that contain your keyword in the anchor text.
If you target keywords that consist of just one or two words then you might want to reconsider them and their counterparts. One word keywords usually don’t lead to sales because these keywords are too general and many find that short phrase keywords work better and longer ones sometimes even better. These are tests that must be done in the optimization process.
Keywords that consist of four words are much more likely to convert to sales than shorter keywords (source: Oneupweb Research). It seems people are tying phrases as they are looking to be more specific in what they want.
