Best way to get pages indexed fast?
-
Any suggestion on best ways to get new sites pages indexed?
Was thinking getting high pr inbound links on fiverr but always a little risky right?
Thanks for your opinions.

Posting the new pages of your website on Google+, makes your page get indexed quite quickly.
-
Crawled and indexed is the easy part: Google Webmaster Tools and/or Bing Webmaster Tools, Submit a sitemap, do a crawl request of the page once it goes live, try some easy social bookmarking like StumbleUpon. That should be a good start at least.
Now ranking well... that's the hard (fun) part.
-
Submit Sitemap to the search engines and make sure to inter-link within your website so that it will be easier for bots to crawl.

I think we all know by now that buying links never bodes well. It's not sustainable and if Google catches on it could hurt worse than being patient.
Definitely submit a sitemap, and work on your long term social media strategy.

While likely effective in the short term, I think buying links from Fiverr is definitely risky and I would advise against it.
Instead, I would suggest the following
1. Add the site to Google Webmaster Tools and submitting a sitemap (if you haven't already done so).
2. Post links to the site/pages on Twitter, Facebook and other social media sites.
3. Try pinging services such as http://pingler.com/ and http://freebacklinktool.com/
Usually this will be all it takes for a new site to start being indexed in Google.

How long to re-index a page after being blocked
Morning all! I am doing some research at the moment and am trying to find out, just roughly, how long you have ever had to wait to have a page re-indexed by Google. For this purpose, say you had blocked a page via meta noindex or disallowed access by robots.txt, and then opened it back up. No right or wrong answers, just after a few numbers 🙂 Cheers, -Andy

Redirected Old Pages Still Indexed
Hello, we migrated a domain onto a new Wordpress site over a year ago. We redirected (with plugin: simple 301 redirects) all the old urls (.asp) to the corresponding new wordpress urls (non-.asp). The old pages are still indexed by Google, even though when you click on them you are redirected to the new page. Can someone tell me reasons they would still be indexed? Do you think it is hurting my rankings?

Sitemaps during a migration - which is the best way of dealing with them?
Many SEOs I know simply upload the new sitemap once the new site is launched - some keep the old site's URLs on the new sitemap (for a while) to facilitate the migration - others upload both the old and the new website together, to support the migration. Which is the best way to proceed? Thanks, Luke

Is there a way to get a list of Total Indexed pages from Google Webmaster Tools?
I'm doing a detailed analysis of how Google sees and indexes our website and we have found that there are 240,256 pages in the index which is way too many. It's an e-commerce site that needs some tidying up. I'm working with an SEO specialist to set up URL parameters and put information in to the robots.txt file so the excess pages aren't indexed (we shouldn't have any more than around 3,00 - 4,000 pages) but we're struggling to find a way to get a list of these 240,256 pages as it would be helpful information in deciding what to put in the robots.txt file and which URL's we should ask Google to remove. Is there a way to get a list of the URL's indexed? We can't find it in the Google Webmaster Tools.

Are pages with a canonical tag indexed?
Hello here, here are my questions for you related to the canonical tag: 1. If I put online a new webpage with a canonical tag pointing to a different page, will this new page be indexed by Google and will I be able to find it in the index? 2. If instead I apply the canonical tag to a page already in the index, will this page be removed from the index? Thank you in advance for any insights! Fabrizio
