I’ve been conducting some experiments with search engines, spiders and getting indexed. The tests were conducted on three new domains that didn’t exist until 3 days before.
- The only inbound links were comments from popular heavily traffic blogs.
- I made 3 comments on 3 different blogs for 3 different domains.
- For each of the domains Google was the first to spider the pages, followed by Yahoo.
- MSN has only visited two out of the three domains.
- Google listed one of the domains first, Yahoo the other.
- Google and Yahoo have listed two of the domains MSN still hasn’t listed any.
- Google and Yahoo have a single line listing no page text and no cached version is stored.
- No internal pages have been spidered.
In a previous experiment using popular blog directories only, it took 7 days to get listed. However listing was more comprehensive as it was in all three major engines.
If you’re curious that’s a King Baboon Tarantula.
