For a new blog or website it is quite tough task to get indexed by search engine, if you don't put anything from your side. Search engines including Google follow some intelligent algorithmswhich automatically crawl and index pages on Web. High authority websites like techcrunch and other popular news sites get indexed every single minute, because they continuously provide such high quality content, but for new websites these algorithm can't figure out your website because these crawlers find new pages by looking links from one site to another.
As new blog doesn't have any links from already indexed sites, hence they can't reach to your website. But you can easily let them know about your site just by following simple steps which I am going to discussed in this post.
Here are some ways you can follow to quickly make your blog indexed by Google:
1. Manually submit to search engine:
When your blog or site completes and you have launched it, then you can easily let search engine know that you have a new website. All major search engines have their own tool for new website where you can tell them to index your website. You can manually submit URL here for all major search engines.
2. Webmaster tools:

For example if we talk about Google Webmaster tool, you can submit sitemap to Google Webmaster tool easily and let them index you content very quickly. Apart from this, you can check how your site is doing on search results, checks for any issues, finding keywords and imprison and many more.
