Anyone can very easily create his/her own blog. A blog can be created for free on blogging websites, or you can buy a domain to host it. The real work starts after the creation of blog; you need to submit it on search engines and blog directories.
Blog submission is just like website submission, but there are technical differences which we will discuss here. Google, Yahoo, and MSN are three major search engines on internet; this article will cover the ways about submitting your blog on these search engines.
Google crawler likes sitemap to index pages, so your blog should have sitemap.It is advisable to go through your sitemap every now and then to see if it has any error. You only need to submit your blog once on Google; you dont need to submit again, but do not ignore your sitemap.
If your blog is hosted on Wordpress, you can install Wordpress sitemap plugin to automatically update and notify it to Google. If your blog hosting website does not offer you blogging software, you can find free tools for creating sitemaps on Google. Sitemap is not a hindrance to submit your blog on Google Webmasters. Google gives importance to blog directories to pull results, so submit your blog on these directories first, and do not forget to ping your blog when you update it. Feed Shot is a good website to submit your blog on main blog directories.
Yahoo works differently than Google. Yahoo asks for site feed instead of sitemap to submit your blog. It is wise to add your blog feed on your My Yahoo page, so that your blog can be indexed quickly to Yahoos version of blog search.
MSN is the third in the row after Google and Yahoo. MSN works differently; you can directly submit your blog on MSN, and for this you do not need an account. However, it is a little lengthy process as it is all manual. Another way to submit your blog on MSN is to submit it on Moreover news site because MSN pulls a lot of results from this site.
After you successfully submit your blog on Google, Yahoo, and MSN search engines, you should ping your blog every time you update it. Before pinging your blog, you should make sure if you have also presented your blog on all of the directories listed.
