Find out the date Google first found your web page

14 Feb, 2008 | Google

A little tip from the Google Operating System blog on how you can add certain parameters to Google's URL to customise information about when your site was first indexed by Google. From the article:

"For example, if you append &as_qdr=y9 to Google's search URL, you'll restrict the results to web pages first indexed by Google in the last 9 years. Since this restriction should include all web pages from Google's index, you can use it to display the timestamp next to each search result (e.g.: a search for iPod)."

Here are the options that you can use to customise the first crawl date:

d[number] - past number of days (e.g.: d10)
w[number] - past number of weeks
y[number] - past number of years
