Before that Yahoo purchase of Inktomi by Yahoo, I had an electrical distribution company signed with Site Match 48 hour indexing. They debuted on Yahoo at 15th. We changed the content and they moved up to 9th. One more change in content and they were ranked second on a their main keywords. They were happy to write checks for $.30 a click.
Fast forward to last week. A national real estate company Site Matched 3 State level URLs. The best we got was 236th. Okay, we updated the pages to include less outbound links and has a more focused theme. No change, Even after 8 days of new crawling the search index did not reflect the changes.
We called Position Tech Customer Service (630.262.5300) and finally talked to the Senior Supervisor. We asked Tina, 'Why are not our changes being reflected in the search results? Old pages are being returned in search results!"
I swear on my daughter's life she said, "I don't know. Some times its takes 30 days to 6 months to reflect the indexed crawl to search results."
I asked Tina directly, "Okay, who can tell me the lag time from fresh crawl to search results?"
She said, "No one can." I retorted, "This is an algorithm written by humans, someone must know!"
Her answer was, "That is proprietary knowledge!"
What is the busness value of 48 hour indexing if it is not reflecting to the public for 1-6 months?
So I talked to Evelyn, she is an Account Rep for Trusted Feed, 630.262.5300, and she guaranteed there would be no lag in indexing and search results! It sounded great, at first.
But they would optimized the pages and placement for <!-- PLUGIN:main_output -->.28 a click. And only if you have an unlimited credit card limit. Otherwise they would manualy remove you from the searchable index.
Meanwhile Yahoo has great opportunites for Dating Services, Horoscopes, Autos, and Refinance Deals.
Moral of the story, in six weeks we have had better results in natural and FREE Inktomi crawl results.
