Lots of webmasters are either clicking their heels or kicking their LCDs. Google’s Pagerank Update is sweeping world wide and apparently, a lot of people lost overhyped pagerank than gained. That’s where all the heat’s blowing from.

I myself lost ranking at my two sites (dropped to PR4, PR1), gained at two (accelerated to PR5), and the rest stayed idle.

For those who lost, don’t worry It isn’t the day of a judgment. PR drop doesn’t certainly mean SERP drop. I know. I’ve seen PR drop before and my SERP stayed the same or in reality increased.

Now for those who dropped, here are a few strategies to keep up and improve the traffic you still ask for:

Roll out the Classified ads- Maintain posting classifieds online and offline. Adsense, Turn over and yeah- bumper stickers will drive paying customers to your site. Just verify you got great stuff to keep your site sticky.
RSS submission -Even as content is a king, RSS is queen in a world of info excess. Most people fire up their feedburners, snarfers and aggregators daily. Take care that you’re ahead on the RSS train.
Article submission- I snagged lots of backlinks to my NLP , SEO Consulting and Executive Coaching sites by submitting on a regular basis to Article Directories. These backlinks continue to multiply when lots of people copy the articles to their blogs and webs. Think of it as a safetynet of votes to your site even though primary link partners go belly up.
Press release submission- Submitting pr to associated newswebs can bring reporters writing you up in the dailies, not just online. This brings new life into the dead electrons of your web.
Forums signatures- For sure, they don’t get you PR juice. But who is concerned? If people like what you post, they’ll follow your signature and spend time on your site.
Blog Submission- Look at Connected Internet’s wide readership and considerable revenues.
Directory submission- We all know directories have lost PR weight. Fact is, paid directories have either dropped in ranking or been deindexed. However, there’s still marginal usefulness to getting your links on the directories: you catch up the random visitor.
Ebook submission- Submitting free ebooks to a few software repository sites got me numerous backlinks when grinning freeloaders started posting them on their webs. You’ll improve ranking faster than you can say “pagerank” a lot of times.
Pad file submission- Quickly fetch the attention to your blog by releasing killer apps to download.com. Adobe.com got its PR9 by releasing free software- the adobe acrobat reader. With lots of copies floating the web, it’s no surprise that their PR soars. with good reasons.
Video upload- A few of mine still creep around Youtube and lassoo hardly stayed into the ole corral.
Social bookmarking- Technorati. Digg. Newsvine. Web 2.0 technologies make it likely to launch viral marketing campaigns and not even need to take much effort.

Go Ahead!!!

If you are not sure with how some people finish with getting their web sites submitted to Google quickly and easily, you are surely going to love this article.

I bet you have heard from a lot of people that it may take days, weeks, even months to get indexed by Google. If you have heard so, you’re now thinking, “OK Leif, you must have had a really hectic day at work today and you’re now confused that this is possible!”.

If I would have readed this blog title in the past, I’m confident that I would be thinking similar thing as you! Ok, let’s get on to how to get indexed by Google within one hour.

The secret is pretty simple. Nearly every site in today’s Internet world uses the social network sharing buttons. On my blog, http://contactdubai.com I include it on every article page.

If you are not having any bookmarking button on your sites, add one now, just look for “Share This” or “Add This” and you will get lot of web sites that let you know how to put a few lines of Javascript code on your web site and it do the rest.

Okay, so now you have this button added to your web site? Wonderful, I would advise going to a page on your web site that you think will be the most important to other users and submit it to a couple of those sites listed in the button.

I have individually found superb success with both Digg, Stumbleupon and Reddit. I launched a web site about 3 or 4 months ago, submitted two links to Digg. I waited about an hour or so and searched Google with keywords that I felt I targeted well and lo and behold there it was, my page was found and indexed with Google. Not only was it found, it was in the top 10!

However, Don’t just stop here. Submitting to the above sites will give you with some quick traffic. It won’t last long if people don’t like your site. Plus point, it won’t cause your other pages to be indexed either. It really is just a start.

After that, create an XML sitemap of your content. Once you have finished this, signup with an account on the Google Webmaster Tools, add your domain and verify your website before continuing.

Once you have finished this, add your sitemap that you previously created. In a few minutes (some times longer), Google will confirm your sitemap and line up all of your links to be indexed.

This is certainly not a assured solution to be indexed any faster. But Google definitely seems to crawl your sitemap on a regular basis and check the links. It moreover checks how often your site is updated, the more regularly it is updated, the more frequently Google will crawl your content!

If it’s possible, you must try to carry out some kind of daily updates to your site. If possible, if you allow users to comment, with a bit of luck there will be some new comments per day and this will cause your data to be considered new.

Hope this article was useful for you. Happy Googling!
