  • <div> <div> <div> <p>Search engines bootstrap crawling and ranking from a set of trusted seed sites. While the exact composition of these seeds is undisclosed, theory and patents on link-based ranking and trust propagation imply that shorter graph distance to seeds should correlate with faster discovery, recrawl, and indexing (lower time-to-first-index, TTFI). This article advances a research program for measuring seed proximity indirectly via indexing latency, while presenting a critical discussion of confounders such as crawl budget, news freshness mechanisms, sitemaps/notifications, JavaScript rendering load, internal linking, and server quality. <br>We synthesize prior literature on PageRank, TrustRank, web crawling, and Google’s public guidance on crawl budget; review empirical anecdotes from Swedish media sites; and propose an experimental design that uses survival analysis and difference-in-differences (DiD) around new inlinks from seed candidates. We call for collaborative data collection to validate whether indexing latency can serve as a robust proxy for seed proximity in practice.</p> </div> </div> </div>
