Thursday, November 12, 2009 Now before I tell you the answer that made me drop my jaw to the floor, let me give you a tad bit of history.
Just a few months ago during a weekend event, I made a bet with my mother. I told her it would take less than an hour for my new blog posting to show up in Google. I was sweating - it took 58 minutes. You see, I get a sweet little Google Alert every time 1 Choice 4 Your Store is mentioned. It's a nice way to do your reputation management as well as learn when Google picks up your new pages. So yesterday I created a new post New Webinar - Create a Holiday Twitter Background. I published this post at 4:09 PM.  I received my email alert from Google.... 8 MINUTES later!!! Take a look at the Google alert. It is marked at 4:17pm  I sat there in shock for quite some time. I mean come on... really? Can Google really pick up that blog post in 8 MINUTES!! So then I thought, well surely it is just in the blogs area. There is no way it is in the main search. I was wrong.  Amazing That was the only word I could come up with. 8 minutes to reach the web. Then I started looking closer. If you take a look at the image above, it is marked with the time of 4:27 PM and it states that the page was from 16 minutes ago. Which means Google came and grabbed that page after 2 MINUTES!! So how long did it take Google to index our new post? 2 minutes Want to know our secret sauce for getting Google to index us in 2 minutes flat? Well my friends... I will give you that recipe tomorrow in Part 2 of How Long Did it Take Google to Index Our New Post :) Make sure you subscribe to our blog or are following me on Twitter so you do not miss out! by: Shawna Fennell Twitter With Shawna | Share on Facebook | Subscribe to our Blog | Subscribe To Our Radio Show  |

Amazing is right! Do you have a high PR?
Not really. We only have a page rank of 4. But we do follow some simple techniques that I will share tomorrow. I promise!
Shawna, great post. Wow, I will be sure to follow you on Twitter to find out how to get indexed that fast. Also, I need some webwork on my site. I will email you.
Eric
Who would the blog be through if I were to get one through you? Would a separate blog show up as fast?
We set up all of our blogs with blogger.com
Then we have it upload into your URL in order for you to get the most of out it.
