HOW TO ADD A SITE TO GOOGLE SEARCH ENGINE? Best SEO TIP
I have been hearing from everyone about how to add your site to google's web search. So I have written this post to inform you all that google or any search engine by itself faces much difficulty in adding pages to its engine. Even search engines need help of the site owners for this purpose. If your page is new or recent and you do not have that much patience to wait for your site being CRAWLED by Google or other search engines you can follow these steps.
But first of all i want you all to know about these things:-
1) CRAWLING or SPIDERING :- It is a process by which search programs or engines get access to certain pages by means of good and unique content and proper heading.
2) Sitemap:- It is like an atlas to a website. A sitemap contains a list of pages in a specific manner that can be crawled by search engines. It is very necessary to know how to add a sitemap to a website or a blog.
So now lets move on to some practical things to make a website appear in google or other search engines.
1) Firstly, improve your headings like page headings and site headings. Every page must have a proper heading and unique heading.
2)Secondly, no copying of any content from other sites. It can harm the search results and may even be permanently deleted from the search results. Learn more about This here.
3)Thirdly, every page must have atleast some contents in it. This makes the search results to improve.
4)Participate in other's websites and blogs. And do not forget to comment there along with your website's URL. Active participation and much backlinks( Sites that link to your site) is what search engines want.
THE BEST STEP ( USING GOOGLE WEBMASTERS)
Use google as a source for search engine optimization.
Google webmaster is the best option for that. Here are the steps to use GOOGLE WEBMASTER as a source to improve search results:-
1) Go to GOOGLE WEBMASTERS AND LOGON THERE WITH YOUR GMAIL USERNAME AND PASSWORD.
2) Click the ADD A SITE button in the upper right hand corner.
3) Follow the desired steps and then add your site to the webmaster. These steps include some kind of editing work on your websites. No need for editing on blogs.
4)Then click on your site which is appearing on your webmaster dashboard and click on Sitemap tab on the right-hand side.
5)Then click on Add/Test Sitemap button on the upper righthand side and type there:-
sitemap.xml
You just change the max-results by putting 200,300,400,500,..... and so on as per the number of pages in your site.
6) And then click on SUBMIT SITEMAP button.
Here, you are done. You just have to wait for some days and it will be indexed on GOOGLE.
For indexing on the whole web, you need to add a site map using some free sitemap generator tools which may be fetched using Google Search. What you have to do is that you have to upload the file generated by the software to your website domain.
Like:-
https://yoursite.com/sitemapfile.xml
After all these steps you may surely achieve success in adding your site to google search engine or on some other search engines.

ANDROID 4.1 ; ANDROID JELLY BEAN
ANDROID JELLY BEAN 4.1
We've all seen the new Google Nexus 7 - but what about the
new phone and tablet software that's coming your way?
We've spent some time with the new version of Android -
dubbed Android 4.1 or Android Jelly Bean to its friends - and while it's not a
massive overhaul by any means we've still taken a good look at the improvements.
Project Butter
The first thing we wanted to try out was the speed of the
interface, as Project Butter is supposed to really push things along. We'll lay
it out now: we were using a non-final version of Google's Nexus 7 tablet as a
trial device, so it may not be the perfect experience.
However, the under the finger response improvements were
definitely tangible; we noticed an much faster response on unlocking, for
instance, than we're usually accustomed to on the likes of the Asus Transformer
Prime, which is rocking the same Tegra 3 CPU architecture.
The idea is that the CPU, GPU and display all 'lock-step',
and while this isn't necessarily the most ground-breaking feature of the whole
OS, it will make future Android devices that much more impressive when poked -
and that's a Good Thing.
Interface
When it comes to moving things around the home screen,
Google really was true to its word - it's so much easier to mess around with
widgets now.
However, let's not get ahead of ourselves - Google giving
users of Jelly Bean the ability to move icons around when a widget is chucked
on top of them is not new; just look at the Motorola Razr if you don't believe
us.
But the interface is very neat in action, and especially
seeing the widgets resize themselves when you plop them down in a space they
can't fit - we can't tell you the amount of times this has gone wrong for us
and caused untold frustration.
Flicking icons and widgets off the top of the screen feels
highly intuitive as well, although very PalmOS like - we're sure there's some
litigation to be had in there somewhere.
Chrome browser
Android 4.1 will generally come with the Chrome internet
browser pre-installed, which is another Good Thing in our books, as it means
more cooperation across the desktop and mobile phone and generally leads to
better functionality on the phone.
On the Google Nexus 7, the browser is as good as we've come
to expect - namely, fast and slick operation when flicking through sites.
We did notice copious amounts of slowdown on more that one
occasion - but the ease of which we could flick between tabs at the top of the
screen, coupled with the fact we were faced with a pre-prodcuction unit, soon
allayed those issues.
Google Now
Now here's an interesting one - the idea of making search
just that much more intuitive using the power of your voice.
You have to hold down the home button to activate it - which
begs the question how this will work when it comes to phones like the Samsung
Galaxy S3, which uses the same action to call up the task manager interface.
However,the interface is neat, and you can simply turn on
the voice recogntion by saying Google (cool, but pointless as you have to touch
the device to activate the app) or touching the voice icon.
In use, you still have to be careful what you say. Asking
'How old is Barack Obama?' will give you the relevant card with all his details
(not ALL of them, it's not got his email address or anything) but saying 'show
me pictures of the Queen' won't give you anything back.

However, stating: 'pictures of the queen' will get you up
and running with an image search. And here's where the plan falls down
slightly: if you need to tailor your speech to make it work, something like
this need to be more intuitive.
The voice recognition was generally very good though, and you
could sense the speed update to word guessing thanks when put in offline mode.
The typing was also noticeably better when using the
keyboard - we've never been totally unimpressed with Google's overall efforts
here, but the next word prediction particularly caught our eye - it was
Swiftkey levels of intuition, but it still managed to help us on more than one
occasion.
Notifications
The last area we want to talk about is the notifications
bar, which has been upgraded for this Android 4.1 release. It's a nifty change,
as it's got more information crammed into the drag-down menu than ever before.
For instance, if you're on a call, you can hang it up from
the drop down menu now - although this has been a feature of Samsung's TouchWiz
for a while.
But there's so much more - you can snooze a meeting, be told
when to leave for an appointment based on your location and search history
collated by Google, and even send a message to tell people you're going to be
late with a quick tap.
We couldn't properly try this whole system without having
media on the device to play music, or a boatload of other apps to interact with
the notifications bar - but the notion of simply double-finger dragging down on
any alert to expand it worked really well, and this is an update people will
really like.
Early verdict
Google has made something decent here - the chance to get
some cool features for your phone or tablet, but nothing that ground breaking
that you'll miss it if you have to wait for your brand to roll it out.
The problem with the Ice Cream Sandwich delays was users
were aware their phone would discernably different post update - here, Google
has focused on a few new features and made the UI ostensibly the same.
A good move or one that didn't deserve such a hurrah? We'll
side with the former argument - after all, this is still new functionality that
doesn't cost you a penny, and with it comes extra reasons to buy an Android
device.
You won't go out of your way to get Android 4.1, but when it
does land you'll likely notice a refreshing boost throughout your handset.

GOOGLE NEXUS 7 REVIEW ;;GOOGLE NEXUS 7;;
Google Nexus 7 review
GOOGLE NEXUS 7 SPECS
GOOGLE NEXUS 7 VERDICT
GOOGLE NEXUS 7 VS. KINDLE FIRE
Getting up close with the latest tablet challenger
We nabbed a good chunk of hands on time with the Google Nexus 7, the new challenger in the tablet market.
The new tablet, which weighs in at just 340g, packs a 7 inch screen with 1280x800 screen and comes complete with a quad core Nvidia Tegra 3 CPU, plus a 12 core GPU too.
What's more, the tablet costs just £159 or £199 (depending on whether you want an 8GB or 16GB variant) and will be $199 in the US.
However be warned: there's no microSD card slot nor a rear-facing camera… although we're not sure many people will miss the latter.
It fits nicely into the hand, and although the back is encased in plastic it still doesn't feel as cheap as the price tag would suggest.
Oddly the headphone port is placed at the bottom of the Google Nexus 7 rather than at the top or the side - this creates something of a lop-sided feel when you're playing with the tablet, and we can see wireless headphones being a real boon here.
The overall design is very nice indeed - we wouldn't be upset to pull this out of our bag (or indeed pocket, such is its size) and for the sum of £159, we certainly can't fault it on that front.
As we've mentioned there's no microSD slot to be found, which is really irritating with a tablet like this. There's maybe a very slight financial reason not to put one in (although a lot of budget phones happily pack a dedicated slot) so we suspect this is more cloud-based.
Think about it: 16GB isn't going to be enough to download a cornucopia of movies and store them locally. No, you'll be forced in and out of the Google Play Store, all the while being tantalisingly tempted with all manner of games and shows to watch.
And Google has also got the music element too - while not available in certain territories, the notion of being able to store 20,000 songs in a digital locker is the way forward, according to Google. Not being able to listen to them all locally, apparently.
The battery life is a big talking point too, with a very decent nine hours of video playback or up to 300 hours of standby if you promise to be really lean with your tablet.
It's rocking Android 4.1, the latest version of the OS (codenamed Jelly Bean) which adds in a few minor updates to the OS - namely better voice recogntion and the likes of Google Now, which will display cards in a contextual manner when you ask questions of the tablet through your voice or some tippy-tappy typing.
The interface is interesting - on the Google Nexus 7 we tried, the UI was super-zippy in some places, and in other lagged a bit too much to be a simple mis-step.
Opening and shutting apps seemed to be the hardest task - although navigating through the Chrome browser wasn't without its pitfalls either, it seems.
There were frequent instances when trying to browse that rendered the interface frozen for a second or two - and then trying to zoom in and out was quite difficult to achieve smoothly.
However, let's be fair here: although the Google Nexus 7 release date is less than a month away, there's still plenty of time to iron out a few kinks, and that's what we felt like we were playing with here.
We should give a big 'shout out' to the new notifications bar though - we really enjoyed the extra informaiton on offer, and are looking forward to giving that a go in real life, especially being able to see which apps are able to make the best use of the extra space and the additional buttons you'll get.
Typing on the Nexus 7 was a decent experience, and we found we quickly preferred doing so in portrait mode.
The suggestions that came up weren't always exact the mot juste but more often than not we were pleased with the accuracy - and the wealth of special characters no more than a long-press away was enticing too. We know, get out more, we should, etc etc.
Early verdict
Do we like the Google Nexus 7? Yes, without a doubt. For the money you're getting so, so much: a quad core Tegra 3-powered device with a 12-core GPU and a HD screen.
Then there's the most advanced version of Google's Android, and the fact you can get a wealth of new content in the shape of magazines and an ever-growing library of content in the video department.
Google Now, while not really an exclusive to this tablet, is a neat feature and one definitely worthy of being further explored - get it right and we may have an actual Siri competitor, which would be amazing to see.
Yes, the lack of storage and no camera is underwhelming, but possibly only from a gadget snob's point of view - do we need a camera on the rear of the device? No. Do we need local storage when the cloud is there, ready and waiting? Yes, we still do - and Google's entry into the tablet market could be marred by such an error.
People want media on tablets - they perhaps aren't as bothered about the phone as a personal movie theatre, but when users can only download two or three HD movies onto their device before it's maxxed out - well, that's a cause for concern.
But speaking of concern, there will be some panicked brands out there who have carved out a living making cheaper tablets with low-end specs; the Google Nexus 7 has just blown all of them out of the water.
