Primarygun Posted June 11, 2005 Share Posted June 11, 2005 Once I've posted a thread or a reply, I could search my post by entering its content on the google. Why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dak Posted June 11, 2005 Share Posted June 11, 2005 cos your post is stored on the internet, and google searches the internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mezarashi Posted June 11, 2005 Share Posted June 11, 2005 Google as well as other competitors like Yahoo use bots to scour the web for information. They check forums like this one too. All text information is saved on their servers... yes this is ALOT of information, terabytes and terabytes, and stays there pretty much forever. It gets cached. You can read about new privacy issues that have arisen because of this: http://www.reuters.co.uk/newsArticle.jhtml?type=reutersEdgeNews&storyID=746393 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primarygun Posted June 12, 2005 Author Share Posted June 12, 2005 Which option shall I set in order to let my web site become a part of the google? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Says Posted June 12, 2005 Share Posted June 12, 2005 No need to set up an option... you can do one of two things... let google find you or submit your site to google. You can let google find you by posting a link to your site on a forum that is already indexed in google's cache system and wait for the bots to find you (more reliable than submission alone). Here is how you can get it indexed: http://www.google.com/webmasters/ By the way you can create a meta-tag so that you can put your own description of the site in hte cache (like the title and a small description). Here is how you can make a meta-tag: http://searchenginewatch.com/webmasters/article.php/2167931 be sure to make the meta-tag fit with your site otherwise you website will have a lower google ranking (place it comes up when search is entered). Although there is some code that can prevent a bot from idexing you but I doubt that you have that in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
