As with any good web developer, the ability to time the changes
Google will update your website and refresh the content for
better SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is in your favor.
Welcome to the world of “Google Dance”. The Google Dance is
simply that the predetermination of when the actual update will
commence.
What really happens is Google sends out spiders to crawl the
Internet, usually done to DNS (Domain Name Servers), upon
spidering all of the available tables it begins to go through
each individual site and updates the content on to Google.com.
Thus if you watch your rank on the Google Toolbar, you can tell
when your overall page rank has changed.
Understanding SEO and what is necessary to improve your overall
ranking. Webmasters have been looking for ways to increase the
odds of guessing when the next spidering would commence. There
are various versions and servers that go out and crawl thousands
of servers at a time, it takes time to relay and decipher this
information back to the web server that Google.com pulls its
information from.
Some vendors have created programs that actually go out to the
data centers themselves to find out approximately when the last
index was kicked off. Depending on the information returned from
the trace the exact time and date are pinpointed. Is there
really that much of an advantage to doing it this way? It
depends, if you have a vital update that you want to optimize
your site, you may want to know when the last time Google
visited your site for content to keep information fresh and
relevant.
There are many data centers that Google uses to spider across
the world. Each center has a specific region it covers and all
the information is gathered in aggregate and returned back to
populate Google.com. With this many data centers the chances for
continuous indexing is good, but not guaranteed.
