Google index graph duration in Google Webmaster Tools
-
Hello guys,
I wonder, my sites are currently being indexed every 7 days, exactly. At Index Status page in GWT.
However, this new site gets updated almost everyday, how can I ask google to index faster and more frequently/almost daily?
Is it about SItemap.xml frequency ? I changed it today to Daily.
Thanks!

If you don't already, I'd recommend making sure you're sharing your new content socially and encouraging others to do so. Sharing on Twitter has really helped for me. The more your content is shared, either via links or social, the quicker Googlebot will get to it.
There's a few tips here from an older article, which might still be worth consulting: http://searchenginewatch.com/article/2223868/How-to-Increase-Googles-Crawl-Frequency
Google's general advice on how regularly it crawls a given site is also here: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/34439?hl=en
Hope this helps, apologies there's no hard and fast 'tell Google to do this', but honestly increasing sharing of links to the content really does help.
