The sitemap really does help! My site didn't get indexed for months before that, but after using the Google Sitemap tool I got indexed in a few days.

My site got indexed in about a week, which blew me away. It might have been fast because I didn't have a bunch of links on it.

The average for me has been about a week. Some in as little as 3 days. I've always been impressed with their indexing speed.

As I am seeing with the opening of my newer sites you can get listed in a day or two if you take the right steps. Also I just boosted a languishing site from who knows how from down to # 3 in keyword search.

Any tips on how you did that so quickly? I have a hard time with my major keyword searches as my Page Rank isn't that high (only 2) but so many of the other sites are just scams.

submit to google/yahoo and other prominent engines manually.

make your site be linked by other sites that have a much higher PR.

the longest would probably be a month or so.
it took my first web site that long to be indexed by google.
i had barely any knowledge about SEO and stuff then.
