in general, all you should have to do for spiders to find you is to have a link to your capsule from another capsule that already gets crawled. your old capsule would be a good place to put that link.

@ lamb-duh : Thanks. I already have that, so I guess I just have to wait, before I take down the old capsule.

Or do nothing, and soon enough someone will crawl. I practice radical inaction.

More capsule-moving woes.. My old capsule showed up in search engine results, even though I didn't tell anyone about it. I'm guessing that it's because it was just a user directory on ctrl-c.club, and the search engines index the whole server. Now that I have my own domain name, is there anything special I need to do to get search engines to take an interest? I'd like to take the old capsule down at some point.
