Easier Way To Get New Content Indexed In Google Custom Search

By Chris Crum

Google has a new way for sites that use Google Custom Search to add pages to the custom search engine's index.

"Our users have been telling us that while they love the concept of on-demand indexing, manually entering URLs or keeping a Sitemap up to date is too cumbersome," says Google software engineer Liqian Luo.

If the site is verified with Webmaster Tools, you can provide Google with a URL for your page that links to your site's latest content, and Google will "periodically" visit it to discover the new content.

Luo writes in a post on Google's Custom Search Blog at googlecustomsearch.blogspot.com, "For example, as the owners of this blog, we can provide the URL of the blog's landing page, googlecustomsearch.blogspot.com, to our CSE. It will then periodically visit that URL and add any new links to content on this blog to our CSE's index. Since this URL automatically links to all new content on this blog, our CSE's index will always automatically get updated."

Google Indexes AJAX And Javascript Comments

If you use the Facebook Comment Box for your website, your readers' content may now affect your Google PageRank. This is big news because Google is indexing the AJAX or JavaScript code on your website, which previously wasn't picked up by search engines. SEOs may reconsider their earlier advice to avoid these services as indexed comments will provide fresh content appeasing Google's algorithm changes, such as query deserves freshness (QDF). Near the end of 2011, Google began indexing Facebook comments posted on third-party websites.
