How are Pages Indexed?

Pages are indexed by search engines using a process called crawling and indexing.

In fact, it involves a series of steps to ensure that they are appropriately added to the search engine's database and can be retrieved when relevant queries are made.

Let me break it down for you for an easy understanding of how pages are indexed.

Pages Indexing by Search Engines:

1. Crawling:

Search engine bots, also known as crawlers or spiders, start by visiting web pages across the internet.

They do this by following links from one page to another. This process is known as crawling.

2. Discovering Content:

When a bot arrives at a web page, it reads the page's content, including text, images, and other multimedia elements.

It analyzes the content and follows any internal links on the page to discover more content.

3. Parsing and Storing Data:

The bot then parses the content it discovers, extracting relevant information such as keywords, meta tags, and other HTML elements. This data is stored in the search engine's index.

4. Analyzing Links:

The bot also analyzes the links on the page to find other pages to crawl. This process helps in discovering new content and understanding the structure of the website.

5. Indexing:

After collecting and parsing the data, the search engine adds the page to its index, which is a large database containing information about all the web pages the bot has crawled.

The index includes key information about the page's content, keywords, and other relevant data.

6. Ranking:

Once a page is indexed, the search engine's algorithms analyze and evaluate the page's content to determine its relevance to specific search queries.

This process helps in ranking the page for relevant search queries.

7. Retrieval:

When a user enters a search query, the search engine retrieves relevant pages from its index and presents them to the user in the search results.

Remember that indexing is an ongoing process, and search engines continually update their indexes as they crawl the web.

So, even if your pages are initially indexed, they can be removed or reevaluated over time based on changes to content or other factors including those influenced by search engine updates.

It is also important to note that, not all pages submitted for indexing by search engines will actually be indexed.

There could be some on-page and technical SEO issues that may prevent them from indexing.

“In October 2023, Google confirmed that its switch to mobile-first indexing was finally complete. In other words, Google now crawls and indexes pages from the perspective of a mobile browser” – Semrush

To ensure your web pages get indexed effectively, here are a few best practices to follow:

1. Create High-Quality Content:

Search engines prioritize valuable, relevant, and unique content. Make sure your content is well-written, informative, and engaging. Write for your users, not for search engines.

2. Use proper HTML structure:

Organize your content using headings (H1, H2, H3), paragraphs, lists, and other HTML elements based on the content type.

This helps search engines understand the structure and hierarchy of your page.

3. Optimize Meta Tags:

Include relevant keywords in your page title tag (title element) and meta description. These elements appear in search results and can influence click-through rates (CTRs).

Also, make sure on-page SEO elements are fully addressed.

4. Build Links:

Linking to other pages within your website (internal linking) and acquiring backlinks from other reputable websites (link building) can help search engines discover and index your pages faster.

5. Submit a sitemap:

A sitemap is a file that lists all the pages on your website. By submitting it to search engines, you can ensure all your pages are indexed.

You can submit it through your Google Search Console (GSC) account.

6. Monitor Crawl Errors:

Regularly check your website's crawl errors report in Google Search Console or other webmaster tools to identify any issues that may prevent indexing, such as broken links or server errors.

Address them as soon as possible to get things on track. If you find it difficult, you may either hire an SEO expert or an SEO agency.

“By optimizing a website’s infrastructure and eliminating friction points that hinder crawling and indexing, technical SEO lays the groundwork for other efforts like content creation and link building to be successful” – Search Engine Land

In conclusion, understanding how pages are indexed is crucial for improving a website's visibility and accessibility to users.

By focusing on creating high-quality content, optimizing for search engines, and ensuring proper indexing, your business can enhance its online presence and reach a wider audience.

Warning the world of such consequences and offering alternatives is important work. This is why our motto is, "Saving the world through science fiction," because if speculative fiction writers don't warn and offer hope based on likely scenarios and worldbuilding, who will?

This paragraph makes it quite clear that the entire scenario is presented as a what-if for speculative fiction writers to consider. Especially ghastly when you see it follows the immediately preceding post by the same user about schools shutting down because of the heat. Are you for fucking real? This is not the place!

Nine people died in my state because they went out to vote in the heat. Are they human to you? Are they "real victims" to you? Or are they just "second and third-level consequences" of a future you think you'll never have to face?

it's been nice knowing you all

nanami really loving you on valentine's day!

cw : aggresive, perv nanami, groping, dry humping, breeding(?), alcohol mention, yummy asfff

word count : 1.8k

you may have gone overboard with the cleaning. your apartment doesn’t look lived in, more like an IKEA showroom. it’s not like nanami’s an inspector, he’s your boyfriend. new though, you’re not very close and it’s only been a couple of months but he was manly enough to ask you to be his valentine, how could you resist!

he’s just so perfect, you daydream while flattening the creases of the couch’s pillow. golden and groomed blonde hair, ironed suits, old fashioned manners. how his voice goes softer when he’s speaking to you, his strong teeth and subtle smile only coming out for you. it feels like you’ve won a national prize every time you break his calm and collected attitude and manage to make his pale complex warm up. you dimmed the living room since you planned a casual movie-night with him, hopefully not too casual for him. 

god knows he’ll show up in his signature suit and sit up-right while you play a stupid rom-com. that would be kind of nice. finally all alone, together, on a comfy couch. you could crawl onto his lap, tug on his tie, lick on his collared neck. kiss him like you mean it, no fear of the public. 

you squint at your suddenly changed thoughts and get up with a sigh, knowing him, he might not make a move. but he’s only a man…?

you wait for the door’s bell. when it comes, you give yourself a few seconds and fix your hair before walking to the door. you can’t make it seem like you’d been waiting, that’d be ridiculous. suddenly your thoughts of changing your clothes because it’s a bit too chilly pass your mind when you see him. like lava streams in your blood, you warm up to a casual nanami. a pretty man dressed in a gray sweatshirt that painfully compliments his skin showed up timely to spend time with his girlfriend on valentine’s, you could faint!

“hello. picked up flowers on the way, these are for you.” he tilts the bouquet, your favorite, towards you gently, grinning warmly, making his eyes squint. you swear you could eat his face. 

“thank you, thank you!” you’re handed the flowers as he steps closer to you, pressing a delicate kiss to your forehead as you take them, inhaling the floral aroma mixed with his peppery and woody cologne.

“i love them, but you didn’t have to, really.”

“it’s valentine’s day and the least i could do.” same soft smile on his lips. 

you smile, too hard, at his gesture and move to the side to let him in. he kicks off his shoes as you quickly close and lock the front door, placing the flowers on the kitchen counter. 

“it’s not too hot in here, i hope.” 

“it’s just fine,” he offhandedly observes the room, an appreciation for what you’ve done to the place. he tugs at his sleeves and rolls them up, revealing strong forearms. jesus christ. you snap out of your gaze and rush to sit at the couch, a thick blanket and a couple of fluffy pillows decorated the comfy space. rich chocolate and drinks already set at the coffee-table, and his favorite desserts from a bakery? you pat at the spot next to you and hold back a giggle when he sits next to you. his black pants spreading neatly over his thighs, your eyes carefully wandering to the seam of the zipper, your mouth pooling. 

“here, get comfy.” you toss the large pull-over on the both of you, taking in the sight of him, shuffling closer to you and warming up to the blanket around him. 

“quite a fine home you’ve got, it’s extremely cozy.” he throws an arm over you. 

“i try. it’s not usually this… tidy.”

“what? you’re trying to impress me?” he teases. 

“it’s your first time over, i wanna make you feel good an’ comfy.” 

“well, it’s working.” he smooths his hand over your hot cheek, the metal of his ringed index finger brushing over you.

you spend the remaining time opening chocolate and bakery boxes, feeding each other and occasionally kissing while a movie plays in the background. you hope for any move during the time he’s with you, any move at all. maybe a lingering kiss. it’s so distracting the way the shadows of the dark room and light source from the tv brighten his sharp features. you’re leaning into his warm chest as his fingers graze over your exposed thighs, sipping the wine you bought that he surprisingly, and thankfully, really enjoyed. 

another scene of the characters just talking and spilling lore, he sets the half-full glass down and focuses on you. eyes on the screen but his palm has splayed to soothe and grope over your thigh. he notices your obedience, spreading your legs just by the tiniest bit. his slips his hand into your inner thigh and that’s where you roll your body slowly. 

his eyes are now on you, and your bodies mingled under the sheet as you watch the movie. mmm, thank god you wore thin shorts and a random t-shirt. you feel as his fingers graze over your thinly covered cunt, tips coming down to rub your clit. your gaze stays straight but you don’t focus, you’re unable too.

“c’mere,” nanami fixes your slouched posture so you sit with your back on his chest, your legs open and pliable for him to touch and grope at your body. 

“kento.” you mumble, dazed, when his hand slides underneath your damp panties to tease at your folds. 

“mhm, you’re so beautiful.” he sniffs at your hair as his other hand grips under your bra to hold and fondle your breast. the wine was really getting to you both. a sudden pulse at your lower back as he grinds gently into you, how tight had his pants gotten? 

finally, finally, he got his hands on you. even under a blanket, you look down to watch the fabric move in waves as he rubbed your most sensitive parts, the alcohol heightening your senses. skilled hands pacing gentle but greedy circles on your buds as you gripped the remote. you appreciate his sexual activity, it’s just so much more aggressive than you thought he ever could be. his sweet words and gestures all hid his intrusive and perverse actions.

“god, i need to feel you.” he highlights his eagerness with an extra squeeze. you pathetically push the blanket off the couch and with trembling hands, you move yourself to face him. he lays himself down as you sit on his lap. you moan quietly when you feel him against your soiled shorts, bucking your hips down to get more of the twitching sensation below his belt. humping the fat chub under his pants, you craved it more than anything.

“uh-huh, that’s good. baby, you’re so good to me. that’s it.” his hands hold a bruising grip on your hips as you grind slowly but firmly on his hard cock. 

“couldn’t stop thinking about this,” he groans when you rub your fat cunt directly on his tip, “this pretty body on mine, you’re so fucking hard to resist.” his cursing going right to your achy clit. you hop off and watch him violently take his belt off, switching your spots and filling the void between your legs with his hips. pulling his sweater off and tossing it as you do the same with your top. his pale skin so handsome and soft with his softer muscles and a layer of fat on his stomach from eating all his favorite breads. so sexy, you wrap your legs around his waist. you shake your head at the condom he pulls out from his pocket. 

“needa feel you, your cock in me, please. don’t want anything between us, kento, please please. it’s valentine’s, let me do this for you.” 

“perfect girl, you’re gonna kill me.” but he complies, gladly tossing the latex and pulling the confinements of his cock down. you whine at his contents. big and hard, the first time you’ve seen this part of him. you love it, he hasn’t even fucked you and you already love it, love him. 

you nod aggressively when he lines his chubby, weeping tip against your soppy pussy. letting it catch a few times as he rocks back and forth, the moves of his sexy hips making you throb. he fulfills his own fantasies of his raw cock on his beautiful girl’s wet cunt whilst she begs for him to fill her up and make her his. 

“you want it, sweetheart?”

“more than anything, yes yes yes.” 

“no protection, nothing protecting you? you sure, love? it’s risky.”

“don’t care. i’ll have your babies if you want to, if i have to – jus’ give it to me.” 

“mmm, babies, huh… you sure that’s not the wine talking?” sick, even if it wasn’t the lust from being slightly tipsy, he wouldn’t, couldn’t, stop himself.

you could cry with all the teasing he’s doing but you lose your breath when he pushes himself into your perfect, tight cunt. all his. he takes your limp and delicate upper frame to his advantage and undoes your bra. nanami rolls himself deeper into you as he watches your pretty tits bounce with every move. 

“so good, ken, thank you..!” as he presses himself into the depths of your cunt. you're unbelievably tight and so warm when he bottoms out as far as he can without really breaking you in. 

he’s slow, eager and certainly not collected as he usually is but he takes his time to fuck you. you’re so drunk on lust and sex that you just agree to whatever he says. his pretty girl wants to be all his? have his kids? marry him and be taken care of and fucked so good daily? you nod and babble to all of it. as he speeds up, his sloppy kisses and skilled tongue on your nipples slow and he concentrates on making you both come. the movie ended a while ago and the rooms filled with groans and moans, sloppy and slippery squelches and slaps. 

his kisses his thumb wet and massages little circles into your sensitive clit. you writhe at not only the delicious friction but how you tighten up again around his cock, stretching you out all over again. 

“close, i’m close. keep fucking me, kento, yes, mhm. yesyesyes..” you jump at the overwhelming, intense orgasm and milk out every single ribbon of creamy cum into you. growling and furrowing his dark brows as he creams directly at your cervix. 

“good, good girl.” he snaps through his teeth as he finishes inside you. smoothing his hand over your pelvis and under your naval. gasping and panting as you both collect yourselves. he sinks down to rub his sweating face into your neck, kissing you gently again as you pull and stroke his blonde locks. ending such a day with all his love! <3

happy valentine's day you FREAKS
