  Ammon Johns: Pings help, but I believe they are still tied somewhat to crawl priority, so great if your blog already gets visits and has good links. Submission not so much as it merely adds you to the `to crawl` list with no particular priority. Ultimately those are very temporary and sub-optimal fixes. I advise instead that you focus entirely on raising the crawl priority of your blog in the first place, which is done by making it more important to more people. More citations, more activity, more user interaction all signal to Google that the blog matters more, and deserves crawling more often.

  Jeff Ferguson: Share it as a tweet, which you’ll probably do anyway. We’ve seen tests where this gets a page indexed within an hour. Social media doesn’t help with ranking, but since google indexes Twitter quickly, you’ll get crawled as well.
