But, even so, the structure of the thing &#8212; nearly-continuously varying content in what is pure HTML by the time a spider sees it &#8212; seems to be catnip to Google.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bloodhoundrealty.com\/BloodhoundBlog\/BRCScrollingUpdate.png\" align=\"left\" hspace=\"8\"\/>I think I know why this is happening, and I&#8217;ll know more soon. But in advance of certainty, I built a similar list for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bloodhoundrealty.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">BloodhoundRealty.com<\/a>, a scrolling catalog of my <i>Arizona Republic<\/i> columns.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m keeping those in date-order, so the list will only update once a week. But, obviously, that site gets spidered a lot less frequently, anyway.<\/p>\n<p>As an interlinear note, if you are linked from BloodhoundBlog, your links were spidered a bunch of times this week.<\/p>\n<p>If you <i>write<\/i> for BloodhoundBlog, your links were spidered a minimum of 3,800 times. Doesn&#8217;t mean the linked pages or sites were also spidered, necessarily, but it can&#8217;t hurt.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s my thinking:<\/p>\n<p>First, you should put the scrolling list of Odysseus Medal long-list nominees in your sidebar. It&#8217;s well-behaved and non-intrusive, fitting neatly into your design scheme. It&#8217;s a nice list of very good reading, updated frequently. It&#8217;s link-love back to the authors of the nominated posts. And, for now at least, it&#8217;s a potent search engine attractant.<\/p>\n<p>Here is the code to paste into your sidebar:<\/p>\n<pre>&lt;?php\r\ninclude (\"http:\/\/bloodhoundrealty.com\/BloodhoundBlog\/TheLongList.php\");\r\n?&gt;<\/pre>\n<p>Second, Cameron will build you something like this, if you want it. For example, you could have a randomized scrolling list of your flagship posts, the content you want to make sure your readers see. That would deep-link back into your own weblog, so it would benefit your audience now, and it should help your search engine performance over the long haul.
