Google Finds Sites in a new way
It seems that Google is now looking up site records themselves or something, because I’ve created a couple of sites lately, and they pull up within the Google index. They do this despite the fact that I have not submitted them to any search engines and have not linked to them from any other site. I’ve looked up the same sites in Yahoo! and MSN, and they are not there at all. I’m starting to think that Google is lowering the bar in who gets indexed, but I am sure that they are keeping it high for those who wish to get a top ranking.
–Update:–
It seems that if Google finds a piece of text (not necessarily a link) that has your URL, then it will index the site. That’s the only conclusion that I can come up with so far, as I have found text with my URLs in them on Google.
