The past week I switched over to iragination.com. As usual I’ve been so busy that once the move was done, instead of making some announcement I just focused my attention on to something else.

Ok, there was actually some other thing I felt it need to be solved before making any sort of announcement. To get the new domain properly indexed on search engines. You may consider this superfluous, but I really took care to make the switch in order to make it easy for search engines to detect the change, so I really want this to be working too.

So, after a week, and after doing the relevant site submission and stuff, here are the results so far.

Bing: Perfect

Yahoo: Winner

Google: Failure?

This one is funny because Google offered me at least three times the tools Bing and Yahoo have to report such domain changes and yet it is underperforming. Maybe Bing and Yahoo are not as big as Google so they have a better time reacting to these changes. Maybe they don’t care. I don’t know.

Usually I’ll let this pass and wait for it to solve itself someday. After all I can’t underestimate the weight of years of referrers and links to my old domain. But when Bing and Yahoo are doing a better job updating their indexes, I can’t help but keep bugging Google about it until it gets this sorted out.

Well, I’m making this post to help Google a bit. Maybe they’ll catch the hint.

Hey Google, look: www.iragination.com
