The impact of search engine rules

The speed of website indexing is largely determined by the rules of search engines. Search engines have a complex and rigorous algorithm system, which takes into account many factors when deciding whether and when to include a website.

First, new websites often go through a so-called "sandbox period," during which search engines closely observe and evaluate new websites to determine their quality, stability, and whether there are any violations. This is like a probation period that usually lasts for several months. During this period, the indexing speed will naturally be slower.

Second, search engines demand that your content be original and valuable. If your site is full of plagiarized content or low-quality, meaningless information, search engines will reduce trust in your site and slow down the indexing process. It prefers to include content that provides unique value, depth and novelty to users.

Furthermore, the frequency of website updates is also within the consideration of search engines. If a website is not updated for a long time, search engines will consider its active level to be low, thus reducing its attention and crawling frequency, resulting in slower indexing. On the contrary, maintaining regular and high-quality content updates can help attract the continued attention of search engines and speed up indexing.

Second, the website's own lack of optimization

In addition to search engine rules, the degree of optimization of a website itself also plays a key role in indexing speed.

1. The website structure is unreasonable

A website with a confusing structure and too deep layers will make it difficult for search engine crawlers to crawl pages. For example, some websites have complex page links, with a large number of dead links or invalid links, which is like setting up many dead ends in a maze, making it difficult for crawlers to traverse all pages smoothly, thus affecting indexing. A reasonable website structure should be concise and clear, with clear navigation bars and hierarchical relationships, which is convenient for crawlers to crawl and index pages.

2. Page optimization is not in place

The optimization of a page includes many aspects, such as title tags, keyword density, description tags, etc. If these elements are not set properly, it will affect the search engine's understanding and judgment of the page content. For example, if the title tag is not clear or irrelevant to the page content, it will make it difficult for the search engine to determine the topic of the page, thereby reducing the priority of inclusion. At the same time, the accumulation or unreasonable distribution of keywords will also be regarded as cheating by the search engine, resulting in the website being punished and the inclusion being slowed down.

3. The website is too slow

In today's fast-paced Internet age, both users and search engines have high requirements for website loading speed. If your website is slow to open, users will quickly churn, and search engines will also think that the user experience of the website is poor, so as to reduce its crawling and indexing. There are many factors that affect the speed of the website, such as server performance, too large pictures and not optimized, code redundancy, etc. These all need our attention and optimization.

III. Quality and quantity of external links

External links also have a significant impact on a website's inclusion.

On the one hand, high-quality external links can increase the weight of the website, attract more attention from search engines, and thus speed up the indexing speed. These high-quality links usually come from authoritative and relevant websites, and they are like other websites' "votes" for you, indicating approval of your website.

On the other hand, low-quality or spammy external links can have the opposite effect. For example, a large number of meaningless links obtained through mass sending software not only fail to help the website increase its weight, but may be regarded as cheating by search engines, resulting in the website being punished and the inclusion being seriously affected.

IV. Effective ways to solve the slow website inclusion

1. Follow search engine rules

It is necessary to ensure the high quality and originality of the website content, resolutely prevent plagiarism, and continuously update valuable content. You can develop a reasonable content update plan, such as updating a certain number of high-quality articles, pictures, videos, etc. every day or week. At the same time, pay attention to the diversity of content to meet the needs of different users.

2. Optimize the website itself

Sort out and optimize the website structure, simplify the hierarchy, repair the dead chain, so that the page links of the website form a clear network structure. In terms of page optimization, it is necessary to carefully set title tags, keywords and description tags so that they not only comply with the optimization rules of search engines, but also accurately reflect the page content. In addition, improve the loading speed of the website by optimizing server performance, compressing images, streamlining code, etc.

3. Rational construction of external links

Pay attention to the quality of external links rather than quantity, and obtain high-quality external links by exchanging friend links with high-quality websites in the same industry and publishing high-quality guest articles on authoritative platforms. At the same time, check and clean up low-quality external links regularly to avoid negative impact on the website.

Overall, the slow website indexing is the result of a combination of factors. We need to start from multiple aspects and continuously optimize and improve in order to gradually improve the website's indexing speed and achieve better performance in search engines.
