If you read the article closely it says they can't confirm nor deny the rumor. There is absolutely no reason why they would index a wordpress site faster than any other. To the google crawler code is code - it can't tell nor does it care what software product made the code.

Use a text-based browser to see how the google crawler sees your code. Once you've been developing content on the web for a few years you will see how some get indexed in a couple of days and others take a few more. It can be as simple as the crawler indexing your site but google not making the new index available for a few days after, or you get lucky and they index and publish the new results right away.

Don't believe the hype as Public Enemy would say.

They will get index faster than being undeveloped

Google indeed gathers data from various authoritative sources and Wordpress pings these sources whenever a new blog entry is made. Therefore, Wordpress blogs with active content get Googled faster.

Thanks Theo!!..

Google changed their algorithm at the beginning of the year.

Few people realize this.

Static and "historical" content are now not indexed as well, regardless of SEO.

Dynamic and updated content are now given priority over stuff like WikiPedia.

Google found that most of their users were going 2-3 pages deep in searches for news and updated content and bypassing all the rest.

Right around the beginning of the year (actually had been tested since mid December), there were countless reports of sudden PR rankings drop and sites on page one were now page 7 and 10.

So yes, there has been a serious rethink by Google. And good news for those that do have sites or blogs, right Theo? I've seen yours a few times.

My reference is directly from Google and not from a secondary source. I thought I had posted this earlier on this forum.

Tony you want this to be true because you sell wordpress autoblogs. It's just not true I'm afraid.

ANY site can be indexed in less than a week. Even a lowly parked domain. Example: RebuiltEngine.ca - registered by me on the evening of Dec 12 2007. By the morning of Dec 17 it was getting search engine traffic from google. I registered about 40 domains that night and all were indexed within 5 days on two different parking companies and with basic html websites.

Anyone doing this long enough knows that google doesn't favour a particular cms over another, or static html, or any other server side code. It looks for a whole host of factors and so many different things can come into play to affect ones indexing speed.

This wordpress donkey don't fly.

Roy...#1 - get your facts straight....I do not sell Wordpress Autoblogs.....I customize Wordpress sites.....I add all plugins necessary...I do Adsense Integration...etc...basically...i do it all except add the content....that is the site owners responsibility...ok?...and if that site owner adds unique content on a weekly basis...Google will index and KEEP that site indexed normally faster than other sites........and kudos to you and your .ca parked sites having been indexed.....lets see how long they stay there......with all that unique content you are adding...

Actually, not only is Wordpress a donkey with wings (and hefty balls) but Google sets a preference for Worpress blogs over its very own Blogger. Shocked? I speak from experience. My acro.net blog might be fresh but I've been blogging on several Worpress and Blogger blogs since 2005. For the same keyword search, Wordpress ranked higher and earned a PR much quicker. One of my Wordpress blogs is not even six months old and a PR3 already. As I said earlier, Wordpress by default pings several points of high authority, such as Technorati which yield more relative results faster at Google. Incidentally, Google has started to not only favor blogs with content over static web sites but it has been dropping the almighty Wikipedia from its top results.

Wordpress not only pings technorati but also Google Blog Search by default as well, which may explain why an existing wordpress blog gets their new content indexed faster. However, indexed does not mean ranking for any popular keywords. I will usually see my blog posts in Google within a few hours, but only if I search for the exact title of the blog post or something very specific to the blog post.

**whitebark** · 02-09-2008, 05:41 PM

Sorry Tony but you are showing your inexperience.

With over 200 domains in my parked accounts for nearly two years and not ever having one dropped - I'm not the least bit worried about them.

You also seem to be confusing the initial indexing with how many times it will come back to recrawl and update a particular site. And yes, a website with constantly updated content will see more crawler activity - but even a parked domain or a html-based website that has new content added will qualify for that. But even that doesn't mean the actual content will make it into the search index. Again - that goes back to the particular search engines methods of doing what it does - and google keeps theirs mighty secret.

**tonyfloyd** · 02-09-2008, 05:46 PM

so Roy...what's your point?....u trying to tell me that a parked site gets indexed faster than a wordpress site??

and use all of your 2 years worth of experience to prove me wrong....u superstar u...

**Gerry** · 02-09-2008, 05:51 PM

Not sure how it is possible to discuss or even compare a parked page to a well constructed site.

Am I missing something here?

Google releases details about its new algorithm and why they did what they did but people want to argue the point.

Seriously, am I missing something? Was I on my way to a mobi thread and fall in here?

Same BS/DT.

Acro hit the nail on the head (I have seen new blogs indexed in hours). However, if you don't get links to the new blog, it won't remain indexed, G just knows about it.

I've been putting content on the net since 2001 tony u rockstar u and I can tell you in no uncertain terms that google nor any other search engine finds wordpress easier and more likely to be indexed quickly than any other website.

Wordpress uses the same tools and basic infrastructure as just about every other cms available to a developer. It also displays all it's content via an html template system in valid or semi-valid html, xhtml, and/or css output - the same as just about every other cms. Drupal, joomla, postnuke, moveable type etc etc to a search engine are the same thing! The google bot wouldn't know the difference between any of them - nor would it care. How it gets there can be exactly the same for any of them. The google bot is there for the content.

Tony I've read your threads here and at NP you don't know much about anything seo-related so watch your tone and try to learn something.

When I first read that poor article the first thing I thought of the forum it quotes and the 'supposed' information leading to this notion besides it being wrong and funny was that it is a few blog users' 'findings'. Wow - that's some solid proof and a real investigative and exhaustive study they did there!

I have wordpress, joomla, postnuke, drupal, custom php, and other cms driven websites and they all get their content indexed quickly. It's because of the content, backlinks, pinging, rss feeds, etc etc etc - not because one is built on wordpress! LOL

I don't think it is just WordPress blogs. I put up a site (no blog and no forum due to the client's low bandwidth) and it was indexed within days (normally 2-3 days at most). A search for the client's name will throw my page up on the first page of results (usually somewhere in the #5-#7 spot) beating out an illegal (client's name).com which usually come sup result #9-#15. His site even comes up in the first couple of pages for a few common keyword combinations.

He sends me an article, within days it is on Google.

If WordPress is indexed faster then it could be the way it is programmed and the style that it is programmed.

If it is indexed faster, it can't be much faster (maybe a day?) than a site with good content (proof above).
