10 Ways to Increase Your Site Crawl Rate

1) Update your content often and regularly (and ping Google once you do)

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 (pingdom.com/) and Mon.itor.us.(http://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

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?

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:

access crawl stats via Google Webmaster tool.

Take advantage of this Great Wordpress Plugin that tracks crawl rate for Google, Yahoo and MSN. (Blogstorm.co.uk/wordpress-crawl-rate-tracker/)

We can’t force Googlebot to visit you more often - what you can do is to invite it to come.

why not use google webmastertools and tell click on the faster crawl rate?

 

Usually we can see 2 options there " NORMAL" and "SLOWER "

Faster Option may be Inactive..... The way he said .. you can increase CRAWL Rate...


This is VERY CORRECT : 5) Get more back links from regularly crawled sites. [johnanderson]

That ".us" thing will ever end?

so good tips..thanks.

 

#11, use subdomains for content instead of folders, went from 20k pages crawled per day to 300k

 

Pretty nice tips. It is better when you tell google bot to recrawl your site, he's going to see new updates on your site and he will love it.

 

great tips john

Google analytics, Statcounter, Awstat can also do this. And there are also some other ping sites that you dont need to sign-up before you can use. One of them is autopinger.

Don't try to become a over smart, I've posted Author's url and these are the important factors in SEO.

I am not doing copy and paste from google help guidelines which you are doing in your threads.

Don't try to confuse users and visitors of DP, or Mods will take care about your profile soonest ok ?

if you are not able to post unique threads so why are you posting wrong content in other threads.

it is better to sit down in your corner of the office and tell other peoples to do forum posting.
