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!

Which is the best way to rank a site?
Hi, I have been working on SEO for a long time, recently I started a new site where I was aiming to rank different niches but I am stuck. First I covered some keywords related to sports then I shifted the niche to hunting. My idea was to cover a niche fully then move on to the 2nd so the authority of the site can also help rank the 2nd niche but the problem is I am unable to rank my site. Should I be considering only a very specific niche site or should I continue doing all the stuff on the same site. Please checkout my site ReviewsCase.com and let me know. And if has also done the same please let me know.

Google adding main site name to the title tags of pages in the sub folders: How to handle?
Hi community, Ours is a WP hosted website. We have given our site title which reflects across all the website page title suffix. Like "Moz SEO" will be default at the title for pages like "Local SEO - Moz SEO". We have given different page title suffix to our sub-folders' pages like blog and help guides. For blog we have given "Moz blog" as title tag suffix which was working fine. But Google suddenly started showing main website's title as suffix in pages of sub folders. Ex blog: "How to rank better - Moz blog - Moz SEO". Here we can see "Moz SEO" has been added which is not required. How to handle this? Thanks

Google "In-Depth Article" Question
Google started featuring "In-Depth Articles" a few days ago. You can read about them here and here. I have two questions about them... If you already hold a great position in the SERPs. Let's say your existing article ranks at #2 or #3. If that article becomes one of the "In-Depth Articles", will it disappear from the #2 or #3 position? I have lots of content that I could mark as an In-Depth Article, but I don't want to do that if it will pull me out of a hard-earned SERP position. Has anyone seen "In-Depth Articles" that do not have the Schema markup? Thanks!

Youtube, Video SEO, & my site
For our business we are building a collection of videos ranging including product info, how-to's, and some funny content. My understanding is that if you embed these onto my site from youtube you don't get any credit for these videos on the web site even if submitting a video sitemap. My thinking is to post these videos to youtube and to host them on our own site and submit a video sitemap including the videos on our site. We would change the name, description, etc. on youtube vs. what's o our web site. Question is - is this the best strategy? Do I get penalized for duplicate content? They are important for both the social aspects of youtube and the content vaue of our web site.
