I can't wait to see more of your findings on this. I never thought the length of the urls would have much of a influence on crawls but thanks to this post, I see it differently now. Thanks for all the work you put into this study. This is interesting study that you conducted. I can’t wait to see more of your findings on this.

The reason they've chosen to do that in order of length will probably have something to do with levels of a website. (a deeper level will probably have a longer URL.) I think it's just their way to figure out the link structure of a website. @Paul So true, you always should decide for a page if it's should rank well or is meant to be a page used for building your sitestructure. In the last case you could use a short URL to get the page crawled faster. @Laurent Colas thnx! @z3zim4

Interesting study.

Just because the url is shorter and has been indexed, does not mean it will be ranked for the topic/keywords/phrase…..

And I think Google doesn't want that site owners could decide the crawling order. Makes no sense to me. I think it’s not a good thing that Google crawls links in lenght order.
