I've registered a domain named isulong-seoph.org, had it linked to an average PR blog of mine, thinking of course it would be crawled the soonest i could think of, and noticed that the new domain was crawled by googlebot a few moments after I placed the link on my blog. And other Search Engine Bots as well, it would be normal for others. To list the bots, Inktomi Slurp, MSNBot, Askjeeves, several Unknown Bots and finally the lovable Googlebot, the never ending tale in the world of search engine optimization.

Next Day, I found my domain indexed on google! What a surprise. Few months ago, It takes weeks to a month to have a new domain to listed in Google SERPs. Google's BigDaddy may be doing it's job more efficiently this time and improved performance lately, possibly to be able to get the most recent information from several websites.

Okay, let me get back to the isulong-seoph.org domain, i've registered this domain so I could join a Philippine search engine optimization contest called "isulong seoph", but my views changed when I looked at search results. I know there are a lot of domains almost similar to mine that has been registered on the same date and time, but now i can see them in Google SERPs! now that's amazing, 1 day and 2 day old domains appearing in Google SERPs! Does that tell you something?

I can tell MSN was able to display my domain after in it's results page after 12 hours, but google? months ago, this wasn't the case, it takes around a couple of months to have a new domain to be included in the Google SERPs. A two day old domain appears in google results page for a certain keyword really would tell you something. I know, your asking if my domain is listed in SERPs on the second day, I doesn't though it was indexed. On the third day, there it comes! i'm on the SERPs.

Our nightmares are gone, I would think that google has now kicked off the so called "sandbox effect" idea, besides it's just a myth, a creation of the imaginative mind and in fact doesn't exist at all, some also called it "the delaying queue", a "holding tank" or what ever other people would call it. In simple means, google indexing and inclusion behaviour has been improved. It would be great to experiment on these assumptions and find out how google behaves, there might be a possibility that a new domain linked to a high PR site be indexed and included in Google SERPs in a day.
