Why Google Doesn’t Take Your Site Seriously

📬Why Should Google Visit Your Site?

One concept people often overlook in the SEO world is crawling. Surprisingly, it’s one of the first things you learn in any SEO course, yet its technical impact on how things work is frequently ignored. Here’s why you should take crawling more seriously!

Google crawls pages to understand them and to know they exist. They rely on their bot to do the work. However, this bot has only two ways to achieve this, and you simply can’t bribe it to make compromises.

1. When you request it

2. When it’s on a voyage

Go to your search console,  type the URL of a verified page into the search bar, and click on the live request — you should have Google crawl that page under a minute.

This is when you request it.

However, the best way to have Google crawl your site is to let it do that on voyage.

This is one reason people tell you to build backlinks, build internal links, and build limb links ;).

Links serve as itinerary when Google bots take a voyage.

It’s like taking a road trip and discovering a new route — as Google Bot, you’re likely skeptical at first until there are many roadsters recommending that route or, even better, there’s a proper map (a good internal link structure).

Take Google bot for the person behind the trip (you) and links to your site for the route between the itinerary.

Just like a person would be more familiar the more he takes a route, the more Google bots take a voyage to your site, the better it knows your content.

And surprisingly, Google may not even know you exist assuming a proper system isn't in place.

There are only two ways you can fix this.

1. Request (Using our previous illustration, this starts the road trip but doesn’t keep it going)

2. When Google Takes a voyage from other sites (Backlinks, Internal Links, etc)

Not doing this or doing it properly is probably one reason Google doesn’t take your site seriously.

Build and capitalize on your current link structure (internal links).
