      Does anyone know a way to get Google to re-crawl a webpage that does not belong to me.

      There are a bunch of pages that I have had links removed on and I want Google to re-crawl those pages to see the links have been removed. (current wait time is way way too long)

      Can anyone suggest some ways to get the page re-crawled. (I am unable to get the website owners to use WMT to do anything).

      Suggestions like good ping services and various other techniques would be very much appreciated.

      Thanks

        Hey Gary,

        Back in the day when when I wanted Google to notice links I had built I used to ping them and it seemed to work.

        Matt Cutts also touches on pinging services such as PubSubHubbub in this video where he is talking about getting Google to notice pages faster: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4LsB19wTt0Q#t=77 I used to use https://pingler.com/ and  http://pingomatic.com/.

        Also in that vid Matt talks about links on places such as Twitter. You could perhaps build links to these pages elsewhere, but weather they would get crawled any faster depends on the site I guess.

        You could also submit the URL to Google. I don't know weather it would speed crawling up, worth a go though.

          Hi Gary,

          Webmaster Tools would have been the way to do this quickly and easily. What I would recommend is to share the URL on Twitter if you can with a couple of people. They crawl Twitter of course and will crawl your page probably sooner.

            Posting links on Google+ has been a really good way to get new pages crawled and indexed. Even if these pages are not new, I think if you could get a few G+ profiles to submit it, it would increase the likelihood that Googlebot would crawl the page.

              Thanks Anthony, I have heard this recently. My problem is I want to find a solution and repeat it 20,000 times LOL.
