Google Bombing February 26, 2004

Posted by Owen in : Website , trackback

I bought the BookBargainsUSA.com domain the day before yesterday. I was not able to setup the DNS settings due to a bug in the registrar’s website until yesterday morning. It took 5 hours before I was able to resolve the domain on my computer. (In other words, the domain name is inaccessable until all this was completed.) One hour later, I put the content of the website up. Two hours later I add a link in this blog. One hour later I add a link to my website from OP-Design.com. Finally, two hours later Google visits for the first time (downloading the homepage and the robots.txt file). Insanity, I tell you.

On their next crawl Google will download every damn page in my store… which is in the 100,000s of thousands–after all I have one page for every product Amazon sells. Hence “Google bombing”. :)
