BKSEO’s SEO Blog

SEO Posts - Ok this post may seem a bit strange. Usually search engine specialists such as myself take advise from Google by reading Google SEO Blog or read Google engineers’ blog such as Matt Cutts blog or other Google related blogs.

But I am not feeling as usual today, a bit frustrated to be honest with you so I am going to give an advise to Google. Hopefully someone from their search improvement department reads this and does something about this.

Here it goes Big G; Please crawl new and low PR websites more often. Just because a site is new or its page ranking is low doesn’t mean that site is not worth visiting often. When I do side work, many of my clients have some good and useful contents on their website that can be very beneficial to Google’s searchers but since they are smaller websites or newer websites, the Google crawler doesn’t visit their website as often as possible therefore new contents aren’t being indexed fast enough.

Smaller companies can’t afford to hire a full time SEO to keep optimizing their websites and increase, build links, and increase their PR. But with today’s content management systems and blogging software availability, many of them are able to update their website content on daily basis.

For example one of my clients has a nice website about identity theft and how people can protect themselves. There are some valuable information on there that Google’s searchers can significantly benefit from. The content and news are updated on it a few times a week but since it is a newer website, Google has not visited the website for almost two weeks! Therefore most of these contents are not indexed to be found when a Google user is searching the web using Google.

Live.com, Microsoft’s search engine seems to do a better job in visiting the smaller websites. Even Yahoo.com seems to be visiting that site more often. The very same website was visited by both search engines two days ago and before then it was visited a couple days before that.

Google has been very slow and hesitant towards website with low or no PR or new websites. That philosophy worked for them well in late 90s and early 2000 but the internet has changed since then. Thanks for advances in the technology, contents on websites and blogs are updated more often. There are more useful contents are available everyday and if Google doesn’t visit smaller sites more often, Google users can’t find these valuable contents.

So for its own sake, Google needs to keep up and step up their efforts in visiting smaller websites and blogs more often.

And there you have it Big Gt. I hope you don’t take this personal. =)

Trust me its for your own good
