Is it wrong to put affiliate link in my website before Google indexed it? Will it affect ranking?
I need your expert advice on this because I'm planning to put affiliate lin

There is little point in adding affiliate links before you start getting traffic to your site. Google will like your posts better without them, particularly in the beginning, and you can always go back and add some links when you are getting traffic.

Thanks for the advice.

There's n worry about it. Just keep going to get a bigger number of followers!

Thank you.

Welcome.

I don't worry about affiliate linking until the site gets traffic. No point in adding them when people arent coming to your site.

Thanks for the response. What I mean is will Google not penalize my site for putting link before being indexed? Will it not effect the time of being indexed by Google?

It shouldn't but early on Google does prefer you internally link to your site and externally to sites you're not affiliated with. It shows you prefer to give people quality content and they reward that. So I'd hold off on affiliate links for now Brian.

I just put the link for my free ebook to collect email address. Based on your experience does it affect my site negatively?
Thanks for your insight. I really it.

You should be ok. But I'd place it lower in your content. If people come to your site and leave it quickly because of the free eBook option, it may negatively affect SEO.

Thanks again.

As long as you don't put them everywhere or in every post you'll be fine.

Thanks a lot.

Any time!

How long will a brand new website will be indexed by google?
Is there any number of days before you see your website in the google search?

If you have connected your site with Google search console, you can submit any of your URL sites through Google search console and can be indexed within an hour.

Also bear in mind that Indexing and Ranking are two different things. Indexing means Google know's about your website. Ranking is where you appear in the search results. Ranking will fluctuate overtime due to numerous reasons. Such as the authority of your website, how relevant your content is, any social engagement and sharing of your content, as well as Google Algorithm Updates, etc.

Thanks so much.

Hi - it can take up to a couple of weeks before a new website is indexed by Google. At that point, it will be added to its search engine. You will get an email when it happens.

Thanks for the answer Diane.
