How is google doing this?

[suesheboy]

Have domains that are 6 years old or older I am starting to roll out.

1) no inbound links.

2) No submission to google or anyone other than creating a statcounter project.

Just changed the DNS at moniker after creating a url directory on a virtual account on webair and google is visiting me in less than 24 hours!

How did it know I existed?

google have shortcuts, thanks for sharing this, i will check more about this...

Google is all powerful and knowing!

You typed the domain into your browser while on a google page and they traced it... or vice versa

Like the Wizzo of Oz.

Been bugging me all day how they did it. Goggle bot just hit 2 more domains. Again no IBLs, adsence, Google analytics, etc.

did you have an outbound link you or someone else clicked on which that other site had something google related installed on it?

Do you use chrome?

[suesheboy]

No I don't use chrome HOWEVER Cyberhustler may have hit it. I am sure out of habit I may searched the domain name.

So a new "submit" is to do a search. May be a good additional way besides twitter and Facebook to drive a bot to scan new pages (and URLS) or rescan what existed.

Will test another url by searching on my Android.

No but that is another cool thing to test. Smart idea!

I had the same thing happen on a site ... was undeveloped and was getting ab out 100 hits a month , And after i built the site and all the next day Google spidered about 3000 pages on my site and traffic increased to about 400 hits a day instantly just about .

They are a registrar with no scruples

A search would do it.

[blackmonsters]

It would make sense for google to pay to be notified for any new domain registered.
I'm not saying they do but it would sure make sense to spider new domains before
other search engines even know they exist.

[suesheboy]

Blackmosters these are OLD domains that were sitting dormant. I first thought the DNS change could have been it, but now I am sure it was the search.

I will test 2 more domains in a few weeks. One with a google search from my pc the other through my droid and see which hits first.

[redwhiteandblue]

I have a site that was #1 for the search term it is the domain of, and it has no inbound links whatsoever. Never has had, yet Google happily sends it traffic.

Google knows what you're gonna do tomorrow.

DNS change updates the domain record, so what I said before would still work if
it was being done.

Why would google crawl domains from search when people type in all kinds of
shit? Seems more efficient to get tapped into the domain record update system
and crawl any new or updated records.

When I reg a new domain it is crawled within a few days and I don't search on it because it shouldn't even be there yet.

A DNS change is a logical time to crawl an existing domain because it often means a
new site owner and new content or no content because the site is not up yet.
