How to make new content Indexed faster by google

[sebastiankoch]

I would like to know what can I do. Normally it takes google around 3 days to index my content.

I got a site map, swiched the crawling rate to the fastest in my webmaster tools.

I also tried crawling my homepage as google bot and sending it to the index with all linked pages but even if I do so my content takes around 3 days if not more to get indexed.

I publish around 20 posts a week. My SEOmoz page authority is 48.

Some sites of my competition seem to be getting their content indexed in the same day.

What else can be done?

Hi Sebastian,

How old is your site? Try a combination of social bookmarking your site/posts, using social media (facebook, twitter, google+) to push your content and pinging your site . All these efforts should help your posts get indexed faster.

From personal experience, if you share on Google Plus it gets indexed much much quicker.

I suggest starting a personal profile if you don't already have one and sharing on G+, plus other social media channels.

Thanks Brad,
I already have a google plus account and linked to all posts as author. IS there aservice that burns your feed into your google plus so every new post apears also in my google plus account? would it be recommendable?

I haven't seen any authority say this but when we create articles we Fetch them as Google the same day.  Not the home page but that exact URL.  If you are producing 20 posts a week and fetching them Google will start to pick that up and start crawling it faster.

Are you using rel=author?

What about other schema. org markup for news articles?

Do you have your blog on a Feed? (Google Reader updates about every hour)

Social Signals? Are people sharing your content?

I am using rel= author
How does the .org shcema works?
My blog haa a feed... should I suscribe it to the google news service some how ?

Every post gets burned to the facebook fanpage autmatically with the link.

The website is around 1 and a half years old.

Unfortunately I'm not aware of any such services sorry

Here is Google's FAQ on Schema.org.  They also have videos on rich snippets (from schema.org)

Take some time to go through all of these.  There are multiple types of microdata and "news articles" is one of them.  Unfortunately, I can't answer your question about how schema works because that is like asking someone how SEO works.  It's a learning process.

JUst figured out that it is not possible as google wants google plus to be 100% human generated content so they don´t give any kind of API acces asthey do in facebook and twitter.
