When your site is ready:
- Submit it to Google at http://www.google.com/submityourcontent/.
- Submit a Sitemap using Google Webmaster Tools. Google uses your Sitemap to learn about the structure of your site and to increase our coverage of your webpages.
- Make sure all the sites that should know about your pages are aware your site is online.
Design and content guidelines
- Make a site with a clear hierarchy and text links. Every page should be reachable from at least one static text link.
- Offer a site map to your users with links that point to the important parts of your site. If the site map has an extremely large number of links, you may want to break the site map into multiple pages.
- Keep the links on a given page to a reasonable number.
- Create a useful, information-rich site, and write pages that clearly and accurately describe your content.
- Think about the words users would type to find your pages, and make sure that your site actually includes those words within it.
- Try to use text instead of images to display important names, content, or links. The Google crawler doesn't recognize text contained in images. If you must use images for textual content, consider using the "ALT" attribute to include a few words of descriptive text.
- Make sure that your
elements and ALT attributes are descriptive and accurate.</li> <br> <li style="line-height: 1.4em; background: url("https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjL9c4ioiaO5QeZV4mfpFcQ3MlL3fCPVVbFyTQvxdJi5uhrQSlv8x6v82Q0De3bq6pjiDTJWlSbmPqWkOl0ENhb1w2jJ4pKYa32LvOf2CfgXvM07rWif-VKyoBeCbKAVEwZyCic-89BfPI/s400/255.gif") 0px 4px no-repeat scroll transparent; margin: 0.3em 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0.8em 20px;">Check for broken links and correct HTML.</li> <br> <li style="line-height: 1.4em; background: url("https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjL9c4ioiaO5QeZV4mfpFcQ3MlL3fCPVVbFyTQvxdJi5uhrQSlv8x6v82Q0De3bq6pjiDTJWlSbmPqWkOl0ENhb1w2jJ4pKYa32LvOf2CfgXvM07rWif-VKyoBeCbKAVEwZyCic-89BfPI/s400/255.gif") 0px 4px no-repeat scroll transparent; margin: 0.3em 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0.8em 20px;">If you decide to use dynamic pages (i.e., the URL contains a "?" character), be aware that not every search engine spider crawls dynamic pages as well as static pages.

Google prefers developing scalable and automated solutions to problems, so we attempt to minimize hand-to-hand spam fighting.

Not all manual actions result in removal, however.
