Checking your ranking: Schedule

[eyesontech]

The time it takes for search engines to revisit your site and refresh their database will vary. Normally it takes from two to six weeks.

There are two main exceptions to this general rule:

If you update your site frequently, a search engine like Google may consider it newsworthy and start crawling it more often, normally every 48 hours. This may even get you a small boost in the rankings.

If you pay to get included through one of the various paid inclusion programs, you will also be revisited once every one to two days. Paid inclusion will, however, not get you a boost in rankings.

The good thing about being revisited frequently is that you may evaluate the effect of your search engine optimization efforts much sooner, which gives you more room for experimentation. If your new coding does not work out, you may return to your old version more quickly, without loosing significant amounts of traffic.

If you have a site with a large number of pages, or many sites, checking your ranking for all relevant keyword phrases, may be very time consuming.

With the increase in SEO perofessinals and websites offering more and more services with tags like they are bound to deliver the results makes every newbie tempted to use these services as they want quick results . The efficiency of the work done by an S E O company can and should be monitored by personally checking the search engine result ranking for your company's website. Try to check your page rank using major search engines such as Google and Yahoo to see if your external S E O service is doing its job well. Don't bother checking your ranking on search engine result pages of minor search engines. This will make monitoring very time consuming. Majority of search engine traffic to your site will come from major search engines anyway.
