Increase Crawl Rate

Can you please tell me how could I increase the crawl rate on my website.

My website is filibo

Currently the crawl rate has reduced.
Site has changed its url structure.

Can anyone tell me if it increased later or not.

Thanks

 

to increase crawl rate, you need more frequent visit from search engine bots. more backlinks you have, more frequent visit you will get from googlebot and other SE spiders so do some work on your link building to get more backlinks

 

good reply

 

Here I got references for you

1. Update your content often and regularly (and ping Google once you do) – well, an obvious one, so not much to describe here; in a word, try to add new unique content as often as you can afford and do it regularly (3 times a week can be the best solution if you can’t update your site daily and are looking for the optimal update rate).
2. Make sure your server works correctly: mind the uptime and Google Webmaster tools reports of the unreached pages. Two tools I can recommend here are Pingdom and Mon.itor.us.
3. Mind your page load time: note that the crawl works on a budget – if it spends too much time crawling your huge images or PDFs, there will be no time left to visit your other pages.
4. Check the site internal link structure: make sure there is no duplicate content returned via different URLs: again, the more time the crawler spends figuring your duplicate content, the fewer useful and unique pages it will manage to visit.
5. Get more back links from regularly crawled sites.
6. Adjust the crawl speed via Google Webmaster tools.
7. Add a sitemap (though it’s up for a debate whether the sitemap can help with crawling and indexing issues, many webmasters report they have seen increased crawl rate after adding it).
8. Make sure your server returns the correct header response. Does it handle your error pages properly? Don’t make the bot figure out what has happened: explain it clearly.
9. Make sure you have unique title and meta tags for each of your pages.
10. Monitor Google crawl rate for your site and see what works and what not.

 

Most of the SEs especially Google automatically controls the crawl rate. Get more and more visitors to your website and the crawl rate will automatically increase.

 

Very good post and great recommendations.

I'll add another:

Use a gzipped xml sitemap. The faster the spiders can get to your content and the less bandwidth they need to do that keeps them happy.

 

try to submit your inner page to social media also try to do deep linking and interlinking

 

Thanks tomcash you mention almost all the points to increase crawl rate. As I think two most important factors that frequently or regular add content to your site and second increase back links.

 

to increase crawl rate, keep to good contents, more visitor, more back links etc.

 

keep increating the back links

 

Go to https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools

then add your website in google(you have to verify that you are really the site owner). and submit xml sitemap also.

In the left side you can see the option "Site configuration"

click on it. then go to "Settings". then choose "Set custom crawl rate". and set the crawl rate as you want.

But keep in mind that Google recommend that you set a custom crawl rate only if you're experiencing traffic problems with your server.

 

Setup the webmaster tools of google and complete your sitemap that google loves.
Then you have to submit your contents to high PR article directories.Although it takes time it will surely increase your crawl rate.
Hope this helps.

 

Bots usually crawls websites randomly. So, it is important to keep your website up to date and have fresh articles or contents on it.

 

thanks for the tips. I really appreciated

 

thanks

nice topic

 

The best way to increase crawl rate, besides telling Google that you want it with your Webmaster Tools account and within your sitemap, is to have a very prominent site, well respected in your field and widely linked to. The more important Google sees your site, the better your crawl will be.

One step that can help is if you get new backlinks from quality sites. Also make sure that your titles and meta-descriptions are unique and specific to the page they appear on.

Make sure that you have no technical errors creating more than one URL for the same content. Googlebot crawls with a budget, and if it spends part of that budget downloading duplicate content from different URLs on your site, then it has less budget for crawling the rest of your URLs.
