Blog EntryYou, Multiply Search and GoogleNov 16, '07 12:00 PM
by Luiz Felipe for everyone

Google is a search engine that indexes any and every page/site that is publicly available, and Multiply is no exception. Every public page on Multiply -- the ones posted for 'Everyone' or that can be accessed by any person even if not logged in to a Multiply account -- will be indexed by Google and will appear in the search results if relevant.

Multiply takes advantage of this in its own Search feature (the one in the top navigation bar): the results are retrieved by Google, who also 'sponsors' the search, generating revenue for Multiply. It's simpler, cheaper and faster than having it's own search engine and also helps Multiply earn some money. And you can rest calm knowing that only your public posts will appear in the results.

But Google takes some times to index new pages, so if you publish a new post today, wait a couple of days so it will appear in the search results (both here and on the 'generic' Google page). In the mean time, using tags is a great way to organize and easily retrieve your posts.
