How to determine "Is my site indexed"?

Here's how to check if your site is Indexed in the Top Search Engines:

How to check to see if your site is on Google, Yahoo! and MSN:

(note msn can be a little flaky and may say it has more pages indexed then the others)

enter:
site:domain.com (don't enter site:www.domain.com)

In the results it will say Results 1 of 10 out of about 78 from domain.com
Meaning that Google has indexed 78 pages from your site.

If you think a new page is missing here is how to check for individual pages:

  • Download the Google Toolbar
  • Then Click the i icon on the Google Toolbar.
  • Selected the Cached snapshot of the page from the drop down list
  • If it shows up its indexed, if not then it may or may not be indexed (most likely not)

OR if you don't want to download the toolbar.


  • Go to Google
  • Enter (into the search) example: cache:http://dveit.com/page.html
  • (replace my domain dveit.com with your actual url)
To check Yahoo Directory go to dir.yahoo.com
To check open project go to dmoz.com

What if my site is not indexed? How do I submit my site to Search Engines?

Register your site. It's simple. Here are the sites to go to:
