How To See What Pages Of Your Site Google Has In Its Index
How To See What Pages Of Your Site Google Has In Its Index: "How To See What Pages Of Your Site Google Has In Its Index

There is a lag time between the indexing or updating of your site, and the time it takes to show new results in the database. Depending on your site, where it was linked from, who it was linked from, and who knows what other factors, the amount of time varies.
With the method I teach in my book it seems to take two to four days on average for the Googlebot to stop by initially, and then another two days to one week to appear in search listings for the first listing.
You can read more about the book here:

But even if it takes more than four to seven days for the Googlebot spider to show up at your site, or to return, if ever, there are several ways you can track the results. First, you can use Google itself.
Go to www.google.com and type in site: then your domain name. So for yahoo.com, youd type in site:yahoo.com.
The results will show you which pages of your site are showing up in Google.
If you know you wont have time to check on a daily basis, you can use a site called Google Alert, which you can find at
http://www.googlealert.com.
The great thing about this site is that it will track up to five terms per email address and have them sent to you via email on a daily basis. Using this you can track your ranking for your most important terms, or see how often your competitors site comes up versus yours.
To use this to see when pages of your site come up, create an account , then in the search terms section, type in, as one word, whatever is between www and your sites suffix (.com, .net, .org, .biz, .uk, etc.)"
