Time for some SEO

This blog is new and not yet been indexed by any search engines. So i will start the experiment of getting my blog indexed by using some of the primary techniques that i learnt while running my previous blogs.
First interesting thing to notice is that google quickly notices new blogs on blogger/blogspot, the reason being simple, google owns it. So if you are planning to start a blog, it is preferred to get one on blogger and later switch (provided domain name remains same).
Next on the list is submitting your blog link to social bookmarking (SB) sites. The reason being, the content of these SB sites frequently change as a result google bot also has to make frequent visits there to keep its data updated. Google will index your pages once it finds your blog link on such sites. I have built up a list of some social bookmarking sites.

Add your sites here :
Twitter
Digg
Mybloglog
Technorati
Blogcatalog

I added my blog to all these, and the quickest one to show my blog in google search was digg (same day), next day result from technorati showed up.

You can use one of the following tools to ping/notify the major search engines.

Ping Tools :
Pingoat
Pingomatic
Ipings
