Google's Date Range Search

Posted by Anonymous on 50 Points
I’d like to understand Google’s date range/specific date search. As far as my understanding goes, Google shows the results that were present on any specific date range selected. For example, if I have selected June 26 to July 26 2010, it would show the list of sites that ranked in the SERP during June 26 to July 26 2010 or if I select one single past date (say June 20, 2010) it shows the result that were present during that part of the day. I am not sure if I am on the right track if not please throw some light and provide your insights on Google’s date range search.

    I believe that it is based on the date the document was indexed in their database (ranking is a separate matter).

    I don't see how they would be able to determine the date the document was created, but they certainly could tell the date they indexed it.
