asked how to make a new site appear in search results. Replies from , , and hit a few points. The following is a short, practical checklist and troubleshooting path that goes beyond the original tips and shows what to do now.

Start with crawlability and indexability: make sure the pages are publicly reachable (not behind a staging login), that the server returns normal 200 responses, and that there is no noindex meta tag or a robots.txt rule blocking crawlers. Consistently use one hostname (choose www or non‑www), enable HTTPS, and set canonical tags correctly so search engines know which URL to index.

Verify and monitor with tools: register the site in Google Search Console, inspect URLs, submit an XML sitemap, and watch the Coverage and Manual Actions reports. The URL Inspection tool shows whether Google can fetch and index a page and explains common indexing errors. Also capture basic analytics and server logs to see bot activity.

Improve on‑page and discovery signals: use unique, descriptive title tags and H1s, provide useful content (not just images or Flash), add meaningful alt text for images, and organize pages with clear internal linking. External references still matter — but target relevant, editorial links from trusted sources and avoid paid/link‑farm schemes that can cause penalties.

If pages still don’t appear after these checks, use Search Console’s error reports and the URL Inspection tool to find specific faults (crawl errors, blocked resources, or manual penalties). Indexing often takes days to weeks; focus first on fixing technical blockers, then on content and quality links.

You need a host. Normally, you can get in contact with your current internet service provider for more info.

[edit]
Oops, I misunderstood the question. I think you need to check out the SEO forum, (Search Engine Optimization).

I don't know how the google or yahoo organise their searchs into level's of importance, but but SEO forums may provide you with an answer.[/edit]

Well you will need to gain lins pointing to your site so search engine spiders or bots will index your site and more frequent. You can submit your website url to the search engines links bellow:

http://www.google.com/addurl/

Another thing is that you will need to so some search engine optimization for your site to be ranked highly in search engines for your key terms. SEO can be very costly or time consuming and it takes time to see results but it is worth while since it is quality traffic.

!!!Hope this helps!!!
