Manage episode 489704640 series 3561734
E715: A fascinating new discovery about Google’s indexing behavior: if your page hasn’t been crawled in 130 days, it will be removed from Google’s index.
This insight comes from a deep-dive study by Alexis Rylko at iProspect, who used Screaming Frog and the Google Search Console API to uncover the pattern.
I break down: - What the 130-day crawl rule is and why it matters - How Google decides which pages to keep or drop - Real-world case studies across different industries - How to identify at-risk pages on your own site - Practical steps to keep your content indexed and improve crawl frequency
Whether you’re an SEO, content strategist, or just trying to keep your pages visible on Google, this is a must-listen. Don’t let your content silently disappear from search.
