I’m adding 25 pages of content per week, starting later today. When I add the new content, I’ll add the websites sitemap address to the links on my blog, and add a post to my blog daily. That’s all you need to do. I don’t “blog and ping” per Rick Butts style, because it’s not necessary, and it is ping abuse in my opinion.

To find if your site (and how many pages on it), is indexed you type this into the Search engine:
site:www.yoursight.com

Where “yoursite” is the name of your site. It will tell you how many pages are indexed, and which ones they are. If it says “page could not be found” it’s not indexed yet.

1. To get indexed fast I used Blog and Ping and posting at least once a day for the first 2 weeks (as Russell’s blog suggests) - I also joined a few forums on topic and added my link to the signature.

2. I check my stats (AWSTATS) on my web hosting account to see which “Robots” have visited. Yahoo now visits almost daily. I also search for my site on these search engines to see how many pages have been indexed so far.

3. Yahoo is sending me traffic almost daily… Google has sent me only 3 visitors in 2 weeks… and I also find my site on these SE’s when I do specific searches.

4. I never learned that officially but I think you can tell you’ve been sandboxed when your site is just not appearing on Google’s results. Try searching for a very specific “phrase” that appears on your site. If your site doesn’t show… either the page had not been indexed or you have been sandboxed.

Hope this helped,

I have a couple of questions about your adsense content site.

(1) Did you get indexed as soon as you put it up - if so how did you get indexed so fast…blog and ping?
(2) How do you know that you’ve been indexed by google yahoo & MSN?
(3) How do you know you have not been sandboxed?
(4) How do you tell if you are sandboxed?

Thanks,

Dhira
