Re: Re: PerlMonks and Google

[stefp]

I have checked the word perlmonks on Google and there is almost nothing. There must be many perllmonks pages talking about perlmonks! So I doubt google indexes any page but explicitely submitted ones

Probably jeffa explicitely submitted his page.

I did indeed. Most of the links are not pointing to perlmonks but to pages from other sites speaking of perlmonks like paris.pm.org/meetings/2000/0906.html/

I suspect links to perlmonks have been either explicitely submitted or reached by Google from other sites. Following CGI requests within a site can lead to infinite recursion so I doubt this is ever done by an indexing motor.

But 8 of the first 10 results from google on a search for 'perlmonks' do point to perlmonks, so it must follow a few CGI requests.
1. www.perlmonks.org/
2. www.perlmonks.org/index.pl?node=PerlMonks%20T-Shirts&lastnode_id=7932
3. perlmonks.org/
4. www.perlmonks.com/
