Is Google slow to index new sites right now?

    I might be jumping the gun, but I have never waited longer than a week to a get a new site indexed. Have a new site fresh content site, that has been sitting for over a week and half and still not in Google index. It has a couple of PR5 links pointed to it and a couple pr 4's and I have done everything else needed to get it indexed.

    I had a brand new site with no content and no backlinks get indexed in a day or so, without even trying (it just found it on its own, I guess)... Something must be up.

    submitting your site to google webmaster tools should make your site indexed faster ;)

    Yeah I have submitted to google webmaster, submitter site-map, submitted to all major search engines, added high pr links.. and the site has 100% original content, SEO'd ect etc..

    Hopefully the domain is not banned I did find a site on the domain back in 2006 that looked a little spammy, but not enough to get banned.

    Now even changes are slow to be reflected, normally it takes day or two now it takes 3-4 days.

    No it's not slower. Brand new sites get in the index in 1-2 days, even less in some cases.

    I am using WordPress and I mostly get my new pages indexed just in few hours to one day... And I am ok with it and I don't consider it as slow.

    Yes it is strange, i am using a custom .php site, with about 65 pages of new original content. I have double checked metas, I think google must be changing up something I hope.

    What about googles cache, how often does it update that or should i say refresh to display whats really on the site and not what used to be?

    It is a brand new site, not in google index/cache at all.
