My search engine experiment

Wow. It took Google just over 1 day to index my site and produce results for the following (previously a no-hit) word:

banananananananananananananananananananananananananananananananananana

That’s probably helped due to the fact that:

  • I’ve registered this site on Google’s Webmaster Tools
  • My site has a Google sitemap (generated by this awesome WordPress plugin)
  • Google consider my site worth enough to crawl it pretty regularly

In fact, Yahoo also yields results as does Windows Live Search.

I’m surprised at how fast it came through actually, considering my site isn’t exactly that popular (Google reports 3 out of 10 PageRank, but I’m sure that’s undeserved).

Anyway, interesting experiment.
