How often does Goole update?

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Feb 24.2006

Anyone know how often Google updates it information? What I am looking for here is to find out how often Google analyses the websites and determines how many links are pointing to your site. It seems that while Google only thinks I have 18 links pointed towards my site, as it has been for about 6 months, I can find over 40 myself. Is it just that Google hasn’t updated this in a while???

Thanks!

@ProWebFeb 24.2006 — As developers it is not ours to question when or why our mystical mistress Google does updates. Just to pull our hair out and do the angry dance when it does.

I don't actually know, but the big Jagger update was mid November 05.

But just a normal scan, as pcthug says the Googlebot is working all the time and depending on how important Google rates your site depends on how often your site gets scanned.

[CODE]<meta name="REVISIT" content="2 days">[/CODE]

this code means that google will revist your page every 2 days
