It takes a little digging to find it,  but google has a thing you can use to 
ask it to index a particular page or set of pages.  It seems to work well for 
me.

If you hit any of my pages,  and then click on the sitemeter icon on the 
bottom of the page (the hit counter),  you can view my stats. Included in the 
sitemeter stuff is "referrer",  which I look at once in a while. Google is 
well-represented in there usually.
