Niche suggestions needed - Posts getting indexed within 3 minutes

10 replies
I had a domain and recently started posting new content on it. While looking for my site in Google, I found that the posts are getting indexed almost instantly 2-5 minutes.

To verify my findings I posted a new article again and checked google. Voila, the post got again indexed within 3 minutes. I tested this for a few days continuously to be sure and found that the posts are getting indexed within 5 minutes.

This made me curious and checked if the posts are ranking and found they are nowhere. I was targeting a highly competitive niche as the domain is related.

Now I am thinking to use this domain for something else.

Please suggest what less competitive niches should I go far where I can take benefits of this quick indexing.

Thank you.

    How have you been getting your posts indexed that quickly? I have waited days for some of my pages/posts to get indexed. Are you submitting a sitemap to Google or just naturally allowing it to happen?

  • Frankly speaking I don't know.

    After starting this thread, I posted a fresh article and it got indexed within 2 minutes.

    I have never seen so quick indexing for my any sites in the past.

      Indexing and ranking are 2 different animals.

      And it's hard to even suggest something else to you as we've no clue what your current domain suggests as a niche. Or what niches you'd even have an interest in for that matter. Perhaps the actual niche doesn't matter to you?

      It means your domain has high page and domain authority.
      You can check the results of your domain here,
      You could probably make money by selling articles on your site for other sites that are building backlinks, similar to private blog networks. By having high authority doesn't mean you'll rank high though, so building a niche site isn't the best option here.

    You seriously want to build a business around the fact that Google indexes your website fast? Who cares how fast Google indexes your website? Unless your posts are very, very, very time sensitive (like breaking news), I just don't see how it matters. Far more important is whether your posts are actually useful to people (so that they have a reason to visit you over and over again) and if they are monetizable (so that you can actually make a living). Focus on finding yourself a niche that does those two things and you'll be much better off.

    As for me, I have no idea how fast my site is indexed, nor do I care. If I really want to make sure that something on my website is indexed, all I'd have to do would be to publish it a day or so early.

    Regardless, setting up your business to depend on Google ranking you quickly seems like a very precarious situation -- what if one day it takes 5 hours instead of five minutes to index you? Or five days? Or what if they don't index you at all? Since you have no control over Google that could be deadly to your business.

    For some niche ideas, you may want to stay within the big 3….Dating, weight loss, making money online. I know a lot of people say to stay away from these, but they are essentially the only niches with a never ending amount of people to market too.

    The trick is, not to keep it broad but to get more specific. By specific, I mean by going deeper into whichever niche you decide to go with.

    For example…instead of going with weight loss, get more specific like, weight loss for moms. It's not as large a niche, but is very much more specific and you'll be able to get laser targeted traffic for your product or whatever it is you're doing with your website.

    I hope that helps and good luck!

    No offence but do you honestly think people are just going to hand you the "golden goose"?
    It takes time/research/testing to find a lucrative niche that pays...

    OH, and make sure to read Kilgore's post....

  • Thank you all for your input.

    I'll wait for one week and give time to crawlers to re index and re calculate matrix ranks.

    The niche I am targeting is super competitive but worthy.

    Did I forget to mention that this domain has links from Google Finance, Lnikedin (PR5 -last calculated), Businesswire, Bloomberg, Reuters, and 100s many more :-)

    P.S. - I'm not very new to IM but always open for others opinion.

    I find it odd that you are selling SEO services and you do not know that the speed of a page/post being indexed by Google means absolutely zip. There are millions of posts that have been indexed within minutes but are never ranked for keywords... ever.

    Indexed = Google knows the page/post exists.
    Ranked keywords = Google will show searchers sites that rank for that keyword.

    If pages/posts are NOT being indexed within a reasonable amount of time there are things to check to correct that. If they are being indexed speedily - great - but it means nothing as far as getting traffic.

    • I was waiting for this reply.. You just told me what I know not what I asked.

      No, I am not selling SEO services. I haven't updated my website in last 4 years.

      I figured it long back that if you know SEO, then rank your site not others.

      Cheers!
