Many people find that the homepage of their site is not ranked first, and the homepage snapshot has not been updated for many days. They think that the website has been demoted and is about to be kicked. Suddenly, they feel that the sky is falling. Here I tell you, this is not necessarily the case. If you belong to In the situation I mentioned below, congratulations to you on the contrary, your website weight has increased because Baidu attaches great importance to your website content.
After half a year of observation and experience, we discovered some problems with Baidu snapshot updates.
I have two websites, Diyizu Social Network www.diyizu.com and Yisi Marriage Network www.ismarry.com, which have been around for half a year. The homepage of the site is not ranked first, and the snapshots of the homepage are updated at least once a week. At first, I thought this was the common saying that the website had been downgraded, and I was quite nervous. However, after half a year of observation, and removing all possible cheating and SEO issues that could lead to this situation, the homepage still has not been restored. So I started to summarize. The following is what I have summarized. Listen to me explain slowly.
1. For the SITE website domain name, the homepage is not the first, but you enter the URL directly. There is a homepage address and a snapshot. The homepage snapshot is slow, and other pages of the website have snapshots every day. Congratulations, not only have you not been demoted, but the opposite is true. Your site is recognized by Baidu as a high-quality site.
2. The updated webpage has Baidu snapshots within a day or a few hours, but the difference between the homepage snapshot and the fastest snapshot is 6-8 days, which is normal. However, the snapshot of the home page cannot be seen until 8 days later. SITE still does not have a home page, which does not mean a reduction in authority.
What is the reason? Let me analyze it:
1. It turns out that the homepage SITE of my website has always been the first, and the keyword ranking in Baidu is also very good. Even though the title of the homepage is relatively long, there are more keywords, and there are more descriptions, Baidu does not think that I am cheating. Still ranked first, this is because my content is updated every day, and there is a lot of originality. Because it is a new website, Baidu has not had time to analyze and crawl the inner pages, so I pay special attention to the homepage. I have valued the homepage for a long time. Of course, changes to the homepage require a daily snapshot update. Later, after the website had been in operation for some time, Baidu had a better understanding of the website. He paid more attention to the content of the website, so he paid more attention to the content of the inner pages of the website, and the homepage became just a facade. Therefore, the internal page snapshot is faster, while the homepage is slower. According to my observation, when Baidu was on SITE, it ranked pages with fast snapshots at the front and pages with slow snapshots at the back, so the homepage was naturally not at the first place. But this does not mean that your ranking will be reduced. On the contrary, Baidu will pay more attention to you. Sometimes the internal page snapshot is not at the first place on the homepage within an hour and the snapshot is slow. This is normal.
2. The homepage is no longer displayed in SITE, but it is displayed when you enter the domain name directly. The homepage snapshot is usually updated every 8 days. In fact, this is not because it does not display, but because it pays more attention to the internal pages. If your updates slow down to about once a week, then Baidu will definitely slow down the snapshot speed of your internal pages and focus on the home page. Many people want to restore the homepage to be the first in SITE. In fact, it is not necessary. You only need to update the update frequency a little bit every week or so, and your homepage will be the first in Baidu SITE.
