How much time takes Google indexing?

[bugbreeder]

Hi all,

I have been following all the instructions of "https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/", I have submitted a SiteMap, but my web site which is online still is NOT indexed by Google. Each time I try a new SiteMap because there are warnings in it it takes 1 day for evaluation, and nothing happens.

So how much time takes Google indexing, and what must I do for this?

I am really pissed off with Google, this has been lasting for 1 week, and I still have no reason for no indexing, I have not feedback or explanation from them. What is the real procedure to follow to be indexed with them, for those who could make it?

TIA, best regards.

Hi all,

About 80 people viewed this post in 17 hours, but none replied, could someone give me a hint?

Of course I may apply the procedure wrong, or not be patient enough, but the real issue is that I am technical and hate not having any feedback, so cannot do anything else than waiting. Google message is pure lame, "indexing process may take time" which means the indexing, providing I do nothing wrong which I don't know since no feedback, could take anything between milliseconds and years. So if someone could give me a hint of any kind about the real time it takes Google to process indexing or the procedure to follow to be sure it is done, I would be grateful. The worse is always knowing nothing.

TIA, best regards.

No one can say how long indexing takes because it's always different, depending on a number of factors.

How long has the site been up, and what kind of inbound links are there?

Hi Marcia, thanks for answering.

Yes, but there must be some default indexing, perhaps once a week for example? You cannot reply to someone "it takes tame" which may be milliseconds or years, there must be some default time somehow, or some feedback for the reasons indexing is not processed.

The site exists since beginning of this year, so since some 11 weeks, but I have just have asked for it to be indexed this week only through a SiteMap.

What are exactly "inbound links"? I just asked the Home page to be indexed for the sake of simplicity, no need to extend to inner pages for now if it is what you mean, the SiteMap is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<urlset xmlns="http://www.google.com/schemas/sitemap/0.84">
<url>
<loc>http://www.ethicjobs.com/</loc>
<lastmod>2009-03-16</lastmod>
<changefreq>daily</changefreq>
</url>
</urlset>

Best regards.

#1 - What are you doing to evaluate whether your site is indexed or not. Are you using a site command in Google or is it just your hunch?

#2 - What's your hurry? Getting your website indexed is only 1 step. Then it take time and marketing to make it pay off for you. Whether you're indexed now or 2 months from now does not affect what you can do to drive traffic to your website right now.

It's depends on your work quality ...if you are working on good campaign and your links are on the good sites then it could be 3 days for indexing ....max time for indexing is 14 days ...

An XML Sitemap doesn't replace how Googlebot crawls the web and offers no promise that pages will be indexed in search results. Sitemaps are no substitute for good architecture. Some sites are indexed in search results in minutes but other take months....

That's it, for me the displayed warnings can't prevent indexing, so when I get neither indexing nor feedback for a real error I really worry.

When my site is indexed somehow then I care about details, the first step silent failure is the issue.
