How long does it usually take for google to crawl a new site?

I've had Google crawl new sites within a day. Get some good backlinks from related sites, blogs or forums and hit the links with your Google toolbar on. DON'T submit your site to Google directly.

I had to learn the "don't submit your site to Google" the hard way.

Sage advice indeed.

And if you already have submitted, shakemelikeapig, then don't worry too much.
G just seems to index faster and like it better when she finds sites herself.

But still work on getting those inbound links even if you've already submitted.

I've also learned that submitting urls to the search engines is a bad idea. My sites usually get crawled withina day or two, don't always index so fast.


I have found my wordpress sites seem to index quicker than my XSite Pro built ones

hi linda.

why should you not submit your site direct to google and do you mean through the webmaster tools.
