How to Submit Your Wordpress Blog to Major Search Engines

When you create a new Wordpress blog, you may want other people to read it. Then you need to promote your blog online and/or offline so that other people can know that your blog exists and where to find it. One way to get traffic to your blog is through search engines. The traffic coming from search engines is referred as “organic traffic”. You may be interested in knowing: how can the search engines find your blog? To let your blog get indexed on major search engines, usually you don’t need to do any extra thing except keep posting new content to your blog. But it may take longer time for the search engines to find your weblog through this passive way. If you want to get it quicker, you can submit your blog to them. The followings are URLs for big search engine submission pages.

Google: http://www.google.com/addurl/
Yahoo: http://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/au/free/submit
Bing: http://www.bing.com/webmaster/SubmitSitePage.aspx
Baidu: http://www.baidu.com/search/url_submit.html

Nowadays there are so many search engines out there. But you don’t need to submit your site to all of them. If you have limited time, you at least have to submit your site to Google, Bing and Yahoo, the 3 biggest ones.

Usually it takes a while for your site to be indexed. So after the submission, you can wait and post new articles to your blog. After a while, you can check how your blog is indexed. There are many ways and many websites through which you can check. For instance, you can check at http://indexed.webmasterhome.cn/.
