Anybody that has been Internet marketing for any time realizes that being listed in Google is a way to get some serious traffic to your website. As a matter of fact, it is estimated that Google may drive up to 50% of the traffic that searches on the Internet. The other 50% is spread among some of the other search engines, such as Yahoo or MSN. While it may help your business to be listed in the smaller search engines, having a good listing in Google can give you a fantastic boost. The problem can be getting listed in Google quickly, especially if your website is brand-new. If you seem to be sputtering as far as your ranking is concerned, here are some ways to get listed in Google fast and move up through the rankings with ease.
Don't let anybody tell you any different, getting listed in Google is very easy to do. The only thing that you really need is a website and a few incoming links. As long as your website is navigable by the search engine, the incoming links will point the search engine bot to it. You can get these links from any number of places but the easiest ways to do it are through article marketing or submitting RSS feeds. Here is a little bit about each of those methods.
Article marketing is simply writing articles that have to do a little bit with what your website is about. You would post these on various article websites throughout the Internet and leave a link that points back to your website in the bio box. There really isn't much more to it than that. Some of these article sites that add content on a regular basis are spidered on a regular basis as well. Whenever the search engine spiders see a new outgoing link, they will follow it and began taking in your site.
If you want an extremely easy way to get your website listed quickly, try submitting an RSS feed. You can do this by building a site map that is in the RSS format. There are plenty of free websites which will spider your pages and build this site map for you. All you need to do after that is to upload it to your server and then paying it through one of the free painting services. You will be pleasantly surprised at how quickly the search engine spiders begin to come take a look.
Of course, it may take a little while before your pages are actually indexed in Google but they will be looked at very quickly by using these methods. I've had pages that were listed within a day and other pages which took a week or more before they finally showed up. As long as you have a little bit of patience, however, you will see results from your efforts. Before long, your site will be listed and moving up through the rankings on its way to the top.

What is DMOZ?
DMOZ is an important directory also known as The Open Directory Project (ODP), classified into different categories full of websites.
Getting listed is free in this directory where pages are manually reviewed before inclusion.
Benefits of DMOZ listing
Since page rank is a significant factor for high search engine ranks i.e. the higher the page ranks the better the chance Google finds your web page.
DMOZ has a high page rank therefore it helps a website page rank value leap to higher levels.
Huge number of websites is in queue for editor's review; therefore it takes a long time to see listing results due to limited editors for each category.
We ask ourselves sometimes why our website is rejected by editors, what has gone wrong when everything done seems so right.
In order to know that the delay is not your fault, concentrate on submitting website in the most appropriate category because submission in different category from what your website talks about will lead your website to be improper place for review, what happens next is the editor transfers it to somebody else & the process goes on until the it reaches its category which might take very long time.
Also sites with unique quality content are included therefore you should put emphasis on placing text content with relevant keywords otherwise site could be subject to rejection.
Rejection of a website could sometimes not be notified, to know whether your website is accepted or not, check by typing URL address & see results.
DMOZ editors are always seeking out useful websites for review so once the above guidelines are followed properly this means you have done your best, so leave the rest to them.
