*Howto* Get accepted on Google news

Great info, thanks.

So, what you're saying is that we must forget the SEO on URL with the keywords, and put numbers...
 
In fact, numbers are useless if you using the google sitemap news but i always let the numbers.

My advice: keep numbers and seo on link :)
 
You will need contact us and Authors page on site... They don't accept 1 man army so you will need few writers and editors for your site...

This is the key part. You cant simply have a wordpress blog with google new. You need an address, and a contact us. Not simply an email address either, background/bios of the authors and editors. If it doesn't look real, you won't get approved.

But you can make that sh*t up, right?

You picked up on two vital points that the OP had not addressed and your input is important as the application for GN has to be 100 per cent right or they will reject the application!

I have worked on 3 sites all that got GN acceptance so I do know exactly what is needed

I have mentionned it because for me, it's an EVIDENCE
And if you're so good, why didn't you share your infos?
I think BHW was a forum where sharing is caring but visibly it's not :(

Numbers are useful and probably required, because that's an easy way for Big G to understand when the article has been published. I also keep numbers in all my URL's, although I am not going for G News at this point, because I believe Google favors sites which put the date up there for easy indexing.
 
Yeah it looks like the numbers theory is very plausible(personally, I haven't seen in GNews any web site that didn't contain numbers -as explained). It's also a good thing to optimize your URL structure even if you use the number structure.
 
Don't get agitated... You mentioned good points, I just posted what you missed in your post and he confirmed it...

It's simple information which you may have missed while posting, nothing to worry about...

Lots of people got their website in Google News... Getting inside is tough but not impossible... Although maintaining your site inside it need little more work...

Most important factor for me so far is quality... It doesn't mean you can avoid other factors but quality is their primary concern... They can give you chance to improve on other factors but on quality it's quick hammer...
