I just noticed that both google and alexa have found and indexed my brand new site (two weeks old). Its has 0 backlinks and i did not even mention it anywhere. When i search for the domain name its nowhere to be found how did this happen? This site cant even be in any logs or anything yet. The only visitor was myself (around 20 hits) alexa and google spider... WTF... I was trying to keep it a secret before the launch as well...
I have a SEO toolbar that shows both Alexa rank and Google PR. Thats the only explanation i can see. lol since when they do that? Just a few years ago it was quite a mission to get even one page indexed...
Yea, I thought you had to at least get one or two links usually. I guess they are crawling more lately. I just don't know, really. Good that you're in, though, I suppose.
