Reply To: Google indexing my spam pages but not real ones

Honestly, yeah, I’ve seen that too. Google seems weirdly eager to grab the junky stuff first if it’s easier to crawl, which is always a nice little middle finger. If the legit pages are slower, there’s probly some dumb crawl/rendering difference somewhere. Not saying that’s definitely it, but “content quality” people love to act like it’s some magic explanation when it usually isn’t.
