  • Google's web crawler, N79123

Around 11 AM I posted this picture of N79123. I knew that my neighbor was in the back of the T-6 on a photo mission. He posts his work at this website www.maxair2air.com and I included the URL in the description and put the URL link for uploading photos field.

Google has an alert service that you can register for that will send you an email when it finds something with your keywords of interest. (His keyword is his website) By 1 PM, two and half hours later, he received a Google Alert saying A-D was pointing to his site.

Google must really like A-D, and it must crawl it often.

Timothy, Google's algorithm to log a new web entry must be virtually instantaneous. I have entered an aircraft photo in this site, minimized my A-D page immediately after its appearance and gone to Google. Type in the N number and Google has the just-uploaded photo tagged with my name and the clickable link-try it and see. In your example, perhaps the delay was in his email server?

I think Google build a update frenqucy trend of a site, even some pages. Then it will revisit those frequently updated pages more often.

On the other side, I do submit all my pages to Google, through a Google tool called "Site Maps", once a day.
