Hello!
In early March, I started a new test to see how fast spiders would visit my sites, and how fast they would get indexed, using nine different techniqes. These are what I did on the nine sites:
- Posted sitemap on three Blogger blogs, hosted on Blogspot, three times, and pinged Weblogs.
- Blogged and pinged sitemap on an unindexed WP blog.
- Blogged and pinged sitemap on an indexed WP blog.
- Linked three keyword pages on a pr3 site.
- Put xml feed on Yahoo home page.
- Submitted rss feeds to two dozen feed directories.
- Put xml feed on Google home page.
- Posting on site home page blog and pinging. (Site not indexed.)
- Blog and ping campaign of keyword pages on many Blogger blogs, hosted by Blogspot, four times daily.
I’m tracking the spidering and indexing. (Indexing won’t be a totally unbiased test because I’m using different keyword lists.)
Stop back for the results the week of March 20!
Happy building,
David
