You may recall I’ve mentioned my surprise when a new .com domain name that I had purchased and put up a coming soon page was indexed by google in what I considered to be record time.
The new site had absolutely no incoming links, I hadn’t added it to my webmaster tools account or done anything at all for Google to know that the domain existed which got my brain wondering what was Google up too.
But I’ve since learn’t that Google is actually now a domain registrar and therefore knows when any new top level (.com .net etc) is registered. So when a new domain name is registered it actually seeks out this new domain for indexing. It only does this for top level domains not second level domains such as .com.au or .co.uk.
Interesting huhhh
So how does this affect our site SEO strategies?? Please leave your idea as comments.
