How Google works

I wonder if there’s a way to speed up the process of getting added to the real Google index. I had managed to get a few pages crawled and added to their temporary index, but now it seems that all of them have been purged – now there’s no traces of Tesugen.com at all (since I haven’t posted any entries during the weekend).

As long as I posted an entry around 6-7 am CET, and pinged WebLogs.com and blo.gs, I knew that I would remain in the temporary index.

I also had the feeling that if I got enough references to Tesugen.com, I would get moved to the primary index – but I haven’t succeeded in that yet. If I suddenly find myself properly indexed, I can’t be sure whether it’s because of having passed a threshold in the temporary index, or if my added URL have been picked from the queue.

I’ve learned a few things about how Google works, though. I know now that they have a temporary index which both new and previously crawled pages get added to. Their servers probably cache stuff, which (for hits from the temporary index, at least) can result in different sets of hits at different times.

Getting added to the temporary index can easily be achieved in 24 hours (or less if you know when their crawl job runs), but I haven’t found the answer to my question how fast you can get added to the main index. If you know, please let me know.
