Google (and the other spiders) have been going through my forum a lot since I put up the mod_rewrite mod. Google alone has used up 43 Megs of bandwidth in the past three days and my question is this: How long does it take to get from spidering to inclusion in the database?

I'm eager to transfer my bandwidth bill to my adsense account.

Make that 2,000 pages and 46 MB... Google is really blasting through it fast...

I always used to think that new pages get added after about 4 weeks, but I've been adding some new pages to my site and they've been appearing on Google as quickly as 3 days, but others are taking more time.

Don't forget that you will sometimes see them added quickly, and then be gone again for a few weeks or so. If that happens, don't worry about it!

I won't get worried if they disappear for a while... I guess we get enough of those posts here without mine.

BTW, I am about to graduate from the ethical SEO school... I am about to change all of my filenames from poultry-links, poultry-articles, poultry-help, etc. to links, articles, help, etc.

Of course, there is always higher education...

Thanks for the info!

What's unethical about having the filename poultry-articles or poultry-help?

It's open, visible to all and clearly defines what the page will be about. Granted that in the greater scheme of things filenames have a very small impact from an SEO perspective, but it's not unethical.
