Your domain's website address, or URL (Uniform Resource Locator), serves as a site identifier on the internet. Therefore, it is important for you to submit your site address to search engines like Google, so that search engines know where your site is. This way, internet users will be able to find your site when they do a search. Google lets you promote your site for free by adding an address to their system. Apart from that, you can also use various ways to enter a URL into Google.

Warning
- It's a good idea to copy and paste the URL from your browser's address bar (including a prefix like "http:"), instead of entering it manually. Google may reject incomplete or misspelled URLs because their servers can't access your content.
- Do not submit your link more than once in 60 days. Resubmitting links too often may lead Google to regard your site as spam, and cause it to be blocked from search results.
