How do i know when google has crawled my website

Hi all

I have been here for sometimes and have been hearing people complaining that google has not crawled their websites or blog. So i will like to know if there is a tool or technique to know when my site has been crawled.

 

Also how do i know when i have been banned by google.

 

use stat counter .. you can find the Bot visiting your site

Regardin Ban
Iam sorry .. but in general you cant find any Index

 

The easiest way to check if your site is indexed in google is to just insert your site url : http://www.yourdomain.com in google and you will find the reseults.

Also check by site:yourdomain.com, this will show you how many pages of your website have been cached by google.
FYI

Check by link:yourdomain.com, this will show you have many official backlinks google has for your website.

Cheers.

 

You will know if you have been banned if when you try and search for your domain name in google or use the site: search operator and your site doesn't come up. That is usually the best indicator of your website being removed from the index.

 

If you have some statistic software installed then you could track them easily by check out their "agent". If they have a word "Google" in its name then your website / page has been visited by them at least.

 

Thanks for your help. I use hostgator and it has an inbuilt stat program so i will use that. In the meantime, i would appreciate it if some of you can check out a new thread to help me unravel what seems like a mystery to me. The link is here:

add your website in Google Webmaster Tools and you'll find very useful information

 

Hi Lucilla
your link link is not opening.

 

You got to replace 'yourdomain' with actual domain name to be able to use it!

If Google has crawled your site, you will find the indexed web pages of your site in Google by typing "site:www.yoursitedomain.com" in Google if your site is not banned by Google.

Go to google and search "site:yourdomain.com" if a result comes up then your site has been indexed.

 

You definitely need to register for google webmaster tools. You can also force a 'reindex' of your site through there by making a change to the robots file or requesting a specific url to be added or deleted from their index through the webmaster dashboard in your account.
