Xsitepro Business Directory Template Indexed Overnight

Here's a followup on the new site The Best of Mchenry I set up on July 18th, 2009.

I'm working on an Xsitepro Business Directory Template and set up an example on a new domain at www.BestofMchenry.com, unfortunatly I had one of my attacks and ended up in the hospital on the 19th, 20th and 21st so today July 22, 2009 is the first time I had a chance to check out the whether or not the site was indexed.

As you can see from the screen shot Google indexed 10 of the new sites pages in 3 days. I wish I could have checked on the second day because I've been able to get new sites indexed in google within 24 hours and I suspect this has been indexed under 24 hours according to my web logs. That's pretty exciting!

I constantly read about people not getting any traffic or not being able to index their sites....Xsitepro owners included. Xsitepro has some pretty awesome tools that allow you to get your sites in the search engines quickly and I'll give you a quick run down of what I did.

First I created the site from the Xsitepro Business Directory Template and added a couple of business listings by creating some pages. Then I created an XML file for the site from within Xsitepro, this is bestofmchenry rss feed. Next I created a Google Sitemap from within Xsitepro.

I submitted the google sitemap to Google and I submitted the RSS feed to some rss directories.

The only other thing I did was to link back to www.BestOfMchenry.com from this site and from new blogger blog. That's all I did and at least 10 pages have been indexed....pretty cool huh!

Now, the next thing to do is to start submitting some articles and press releases for keywords I want my clients pages to rank for. I'll try to document my progress, I'm limited because of health reasons but hopefully I'll get a few more clients and get this local business directory ramped up!

Here's the screen shot of the pages indexed by Google.
