      I am considering using Google Site Search on our new site. I was told...

      "We have also seen a bump in traffic for sites when using Google Site Search because Google indexes the site more often (they claim using the paid Google Site Search has no effect on search rankings but we have also seen bumps in rankings after using it so that may just be what they have to say legally)."

      Is there any evidence of this? Would you recommend using Google Site Search?

      Thanks

      David

        This hits really high on my BS meter.

        • Should you use robots.txt for pages within your site which do not have high quality content or are not contributing a great deal so when Google crawls your site the best performing content has a higher chance of being indexed?

        • If you have multiple Web sites, utilizing great root domains to rank organically for varying terms, is it against Google search policy if each site basically offers the same service?
