How to add a website to google search

Both Google and Bing have their individual webmaster tools to add or submit your websites or blogs. So firstly you have to create an account in the below webmaster tools.

• Google Webmaster Tools
• Bing Webmaster Tools

Once done you have to submit your sitemap. This sitemap will help Search engines to crawl your web site’s links/URL’s.

So you must create a sitemap. A sitemap is of various formats like XML, Atom, RSS, and Text. And both these Search engines maintain all formats. 

There are several sitemap generators are accessible for free on the internet. Some of them are posted below. To create a sitemap and download the sitemap file and upload it to your website root folder and then copy and paste your sitemap URL (like www.example.com/sitemap.xml) to the webmaster tools.

Some of the best Sitemap Generators are

1. XML Sitemap Generator.

For Blogger Users

If you are using Blogger, then you are not required to follow the above process. You can simply use the below URL in the sitemap field of webmaster tools.

http://www.example.com/atom.xml?redirect=false&start-index=1&max-results=500

This URL is only for the first 500 posts on your blogger website. If your website has more than 500 posts. Add one more sitemap for the next 500 like below

http://www.example.com/atom.xml?redirect=false&start-index=501&max-results=500

And if you have more than 1000 posts add these URL after adding the above ones

http://www.example.com/atom.xml”redirect=false&start-index=1001&max-results=500

in the same way, you can add sitemaps based upon the number of posts available on your blogger.
