How often to Submit Website?
There’s no hard and fast rule here — and each search engine is different. But before you can even consider submitting, only submit your website once you have covered the Basic SEO Steps for your website (as outlined in internet-marketing.web.id). Not taking the time to fulfill these basic requirements will be detrimental to your SEO efforts.
Free Search Engine Submission – the Big 3
Using xml sitemaps
Assuming your sitemap is fully conformant to Sitemap Protocol 0.9 as dictated by sitemaps.org, you should only need to submit it once, but would need to update it onsite by re-generating the code every time you make an alteration to the structure of your site.
Using google sitemaps
If you have done this right you will only have to submit your sitemap once. Every website that you have a sitemap associated with it should be entered into google sitemaps. You must initially add your Sitemap to Google webmaster tools using your Google Account. Google will send a spider each day to check your sitemap and if any timestamps have changed the spider will look for the new page. All new content will be indexed very quickly. However, it could take time when it will be assigned proper ranking and will visible in searches.
If you provide a user link to your sitemap, you don’t even need to submit it as Google will find it and figure it out the next time it does a comprehensive crawl of your site. (Generally when it caches your site, you can find this out by typing your complete URL including the http into the google search field and noting what date your site was cached). Alternatively, take a look to your server log and find out how frequently your site has been crawled by Googlebot.
How do I resubmit my Sitemap once it has changed?
google: “When your Sitemap changes, you can resubmit it to Google to let us know.”
Seems to imply you can submit for any major changes, but I wouldn’t recommend too much, not more than once a month.
Don’t believe anyone who tells you they have the easy road to search engine rankings — they only want your money! It takes sweat and marketing savvy to build traffic to a site.
