I haven't added my site in google webmaster but when I google search my site first 3 results belong to...?

I haven't entered my site in google webmaster, but when I google search my site, first 3 results belong to my site. How did this happen??
Or did I just did my SEO in a good way.

Do I need to submit my site to google, if its already showing in top searches..

I almost dropped of my chair when I saw it on top results, cuz I had not added to google webmasters. Did google automatically added my site, or did some one else did??

Hi,

Google probably indexed your site already but that doesn't mean they indexed "all" of your pages. They might not be able to crawl all of your pages and for that reason, submitting a Sitemap to Google Webmaster will allow Google to know all your pages.

Furthermore, since your site is already indexed or crawled, if you search specifically for your site, it should show up since your site matches exactly what you are searching for, your website. What you did is a good way to check if Google still has your site in their index.

However, in SEO point of view, it doesn't mean you did some amazing SEO to your site. You want your site to appear when someone searches for keywords or terms related to your site and not when they search specifically for your site. If they search specifically for your site, it means that the searchers already know about your site. However, for SEO helps people that don't know about you discover your site.

Hope this helps

First bear in mind that showing up in a search for your own name is one of the least valuable results, you need to rank for the topics of your site, not it's name, it's trivial to rank for a unique name no one else has on the web.

To see all pages that have been indexed, do a search for: site:yoursite.com (use no spaces)

Search engine spiders can 'discover' a site that has been linked to by following the links from sites already indexed. I don't bother to submit a site for indexed, instead I secure a few backlinks, which are needed to raise ranking anyway.

Realistically if you have a decent user navigation system not employing tricky scripts the search engines will find all of your pages, the enterprise sites with thousands of pages are the ones that must use a site map to get as much of their site indexed as possible.

Webmaster tools has other useful tracking and optimization services, you are also able to receive warning messages, like the recently pervasive "Unnatural link pattern" warning resulting from excessive SEO which can get a site de-indexed.

Learn about using the Google keyword research tool to find search phrases you would want to rank for by including them in some of your content.

Yeah man, that just means Google indexed your site quickly. The only time you would really want to rank for the name of your site is once you grow your brand. And no, you don't need to submit your site to Google, they already found it. But it wouldn't hurt to take ownership of the site in Google Webmaster Tools.

Additionally, you might want to think about adding a Google Plus account and Google Authorship to your site. Google is giving top results for a lot of my sites just for taking ownership of them. They like that I'm not hiding and am proud of the content I'm putting out there.

And if you haven't already, the Google keyword tool is a great place to start to find keywords that would have great commercial intent, meaning you can make money from your site with those keywords.

You don't need to pay for expensive keyword tools to get a general understanding of what you should or shouldn't go after in terms of SEO.

SEO isn't free by the way. You either pay for it, or it takes your own time to do it. So you still pay for it. However, it is really sweet when you start getting that organic search engine traffic. When you get the hang of it, you'll be falling over in your chair a few more times when you get that coveted #1 spot. But be careful, there are a lot of swindlers out there that are just after your money for HORRIBLE products. Fair warning.

That being said, having a good knowledge what makes a keyword good and what makes a keyword bad is pretty important when searching through the Google Keyword tool. You gotta take into consideration the search volume, the competition, and the commercial intent.

It is an art my friend. But once you get good at it, you will be able to go after some pretty awesome keywords that will take your site over the top. There is free training all over the internet for it, but don't go giving away your email address for it unless you want to be spammed to death by offers of the latest and greatest SEO software program for top page rankings...

Hope this helps you out and good luck with your site.
