Add Your Blog Posts to Google to Increase Website Traffic
Stop reading and go add each one of your blog posts to Google.
Okay, I’m just kidding about every single one of your blog posts — but I found that submitting each blog post you really want traffic for to Google really helps those posts get indexed in Google faster.
I’d slacked off on doing this, because I’d read that it didn’t matter — especially if you have a sitemap.xml file submitted to Google.
But then I noticed that Google wasn’t indexing those posts as fast.
So I started submitting each blog post I cared about (which should have mostly words in the URL, like this one you’re reading: http://www.paulanealmooney.com/add-your-blog-posts-to-google-to-increase-website-traffic/62/ not like http://myblog.com/blog/p=123) to Google and I noticed my traffic was better directed to the individual post that the person was looking for.

Hey Paula, I love your new blog… especially the fact that it does not crash my hardrive when I open it…
You might want to take some of the graphics off the blogspot page as I am afraid to go there… my ‘puter doesn’t like it.
