After seeing how fast Google indexed my last blog post regarding web articles, I've decided to conduct an experiment.
If you're a fan of the Andy Griffith Show, you are sure to remember the town barber, Floyd Lawson, who was portrayed by veteran character actor, Howard McNear.
Howard McNear as Floyd Lawson
Howard McNear has absolutely nothing to do with web design in Austin, Texas; my experiment is to see how fast Google will index this blog post.
It is now 10:03 p.m. Central Standard Time. I'll be searching on the phrase "Howard McNear Web Design" to find out if and when Google has indexed this article. Stay tuned for results.
UPDATE: Monday, September 24, 8:53 a.m.
This blog is the NUMBER ONE RESULT for a Google search on "Howard McNear Web Design"!!!
I am absolutely amazed at how fast Google indexed this blog post. Ever since Google bought Blogger, I've speculated that Blogger posts get preferential treatment. My next experiment will be to add an identical post (except for the name of the obscure actor) to my WordPress blog. How long will it take to get indexed by Google? Stay tuned.
