How to Add your Website to Google

Is your website on Google? As a website owner, you may decide that you wish to feature your site on the Google Search Engine. It will not appear on Google unless it has been indexed by Googlebot, the search engine robot. Did you know, it's completely free?

You can think of a search engine as a directory millions of websites, or more importantly, hundreds of millions of individual web pages.

Search engine databases are created by internet robots called spiders. When your website is visited by a robot, it becomes indexed. Various terms are used to describe this process, but it means that your site has been:

  • Indexed
  • Crawled
  • Spidered
  • Listed

It is not necessary to submit every individual web page on your website. Just submit the home page and Googlebot will take care of the other web pages.

You can submit your website to the Google Search Engine free of charge using the link below:

Add your Website to Google

Google does not add all submitted websites to the search engine index, nor does it make any predictions or guarantees about when or if they will appear.

In our experience, the indexing procedure happens within days or weeks, rather than months.

Submit your Site to Yahoo - this is also a completely free service, but you do need to have a Yahoo! account.

Submit your URL to MSN - also known as Live Search, this is completely free.
