How long does google takes to crawl a single site ?
-
lately i have been thinking , when a crawler visits an already visited site or indexed site, whats the duration of its scanning?
-
The time it takes for Google to crawl a site can vary depending on several factors. Google uses sophisticated algorithms to determine how frequently to crawl a site and how much of the site's content to crawl. Generally, smaller and less frequently updated sites might be crawled more quickly, while larger and more frequently updated sites might take longer.
Additionally, factors like the site's server speed, the number of pages, the complexity of the site's structure, and the server's response time can all impact how quickly Google crawls a site. Google also prioritizes sites based on various factors like the site's authority, relevance, and user demand.
While there is no fixed time frame for Google to crawl a single site, it typically aims to keep its index up to date and ensure that the most relevant content is available to users. If you have concerns about the crawl rate of your site, you can try optimizing your site's structure, improving server speed, and generating fresh and relevant content to potentially encourage more frequent crawling.

best use indexing plugin for WordPress
when i tried to update my site Punarjan Ayurveda it shows already indexed -
Recently I am experiencing a lot of deindexing and indexing randomly, what could be the reason and solution?
-
For faster indexing, the following conditions must be met:
- The content is thick enough for the google bot to understand the website
- Make sure the onpage optimization is good enough for the google bot to go through the pages according to the anchor text
- Website needs to have trust and be identified on google.
When the website was ranked as high as the top 3 of the big keywords, within 2 hours the content was indexed.
-
You could do "site:yoururl.com" in google search to see what's indexed in Google.
-
Update frequency, i.e how many times your updating, and value of the website for google. Ive seen my own website being crawled daily at some point.
-
I have same issue too. I have built couple of back links and still waiting for the index
-
and how would i know that there are some sites which are indexed more often. any factors?
actually i want my editorial backlinks to get indexed. those links are just not indexed and its been 6 months, ichecked in google search and search console.

It just indexes your pages. That could be done in less then a minute if it wanted. If you have everything structured with for example an up to date sitemap, no 404's or anything then your good to go really. Crawl speed is a factor on how much time it spends on the website. Crawl speed is mandatory when google is requesting alot of pages at the same time that could slow it down, or be triggered by a firewall for having too much connections at the same time.
Really these things are usually something from the past. If you want a quick index throw in a link on social media for example or get a quality link from some other place that's indexed more often.

No you got me wrong my question was when crawler visit the website how much time does it spends there , like one hour two hours

If you update your website 'frequently' the crawler will be more there, if you dont update your website frequently the crawler will slowly back down. Ive had a client's website not updated in perhaps 2 years. We installed a complete new website with new content and it took months for it to be completely re-indexed.

My Friend, It is different with each website and its different every day.
You can see it in 2 ways.
-
By setting up and checking your server logs.
-
Google is showing you how many pages they crawled each day and how long it took them in the Crawl Stats chart in Search Consol (Legacy tools)
I wish you all the best!

New Zealand rankings - Is Google taking city into account now?
I've just noticed over the last 24 hours that Google New Zealand seems to be taking city into account with the search results - when I search from Christchurch - I get CHCH companies and Auckland results when searching from Auckland. I would like to rank my client nationally - any tips? Has anyone else noticed this? I need to be the top of Google for my keyword throughout the country. Any articles that could help? Kind regards, David

When Google crawls and indexes a new page does it show up immediately in Google search - "site;"?
We made changes to a site, including the addition of a new page and corresponding link/text changes to existing pages. The changes are not yet showing up in the Google index (“site:”/cache), but, approximately 24 hours after making the changes, The SERP's for this site jumped up. We obtained a new back link about a couple of weeks ago, but it is not yet showing up in OSE, Webmaster Tools, or other tools. Just wondering if you think the Google SERP changes run ahead of what they actually show us in site: or cache updates. Has Google made a significant SERP “adjustment” recently? Thanks.

Will signing up for Google Places affect my national rankings
OK, Here is a question which I can't find but think people have thought about. I would like to know others opinion. I have had a site that ranks well under generic national keyword terms. (not geographically specific) Its a small website, only 10 pages. We get 85% of our business from online applications. These applications come from all over the united states.Our SERP rankings generate 70% of all our traffic. My question is this: we operate in a state where we don't do business. We are a virtual business. Should I sign up for google places? Will It hurt my national SERP rankings?
