Having your website indexed by Google means that your domain name will at least show up in the search results if you do a search query for yourname.com. As a present example, you can type in newventuresuccess.com in Google and you will find that there are no direct links from Google to this site. The results that come up all have newventuresuccess.com in the description somewhere, but there are currently not any link backs directly from Google. This can also be a good comparison for all the major search engines. The top three still remain as Google, Yahoo, and MSN so I just usually use those three for comparison. If I type in the domain name newventuresuccess.com into all three search engines I will get a different result. The biggest difference that I currently notice is that newventuresuccess.com shows up in the top results at Yahoo and MSN but the site does not show up at all on Google.

Once the site has been indexed by a specific search engine this will then open up the opportunity to receive traffic from other keywords than just using the actual domain name for the search. This page could eventually show up for the keyword “make money online” because this keyphrase is used throughout this blog. Depending on the competition for the keyphrase “make money online” the results would vary between all of the search engines. For example, MSN could have the site listed somewhere in the top 300 results and you would not find the site listed in the top 3000 at Yahoo. This all comes into play AFTER the site is indexed in the search engine. If newventuresuccess.com is not listed in the actual search engine results then there is no way that the keyphrase “make money online” would display any search results for the site at all. If done properly and with a lot of luck, you could conceivably get a top rating for your chosen keyword on the first day indexed. However, I usually just concentrate on getting my site listed first.
