Does amount of pages indexed affect traffic and rankings?

Quick question if a site has say around 200,000 pages index on a search engine would this increase search engine traffic or rankings within a search engine

 

Definitely.

 

So in other words i could create a website with 200,000 pages get them index and traffic will come flooding in or is it not so simple.

 

The more indexed pages you have the better chance you will have of somebody finding your site.

Content is King

 

hmm intresting.

 

Of course. Each word on each page is another chance that someone will find your site via a search engine.

The more pages indexed - the more traffic potential.

 

This the one of the reasons why big forums stay on top of the list - they have more indexed pages. If you have a new forum with 100 indexed pages, and a forum with 200,000 indexed pages - people are more likely to find the big forum first.

The more pages you have indexed, the easier it is for people to find you. This is especially true if you have an exact target nitch that you have tapped into.

 

Yes it can be good, also there would be more keywords googles

 

hmm just gets better and better. very intresting indeed.

So why dont people just make a site and create thousands off pages then is that not possible to do.

Im sure dont have to be a forum right.

 

cocopops 2 thingss.

1. Some do try this but its spam and black hat if the content is trash. Meaning the site must have meaning or at least a clear point.

2. Google will ban you to hell if they find out your flooding there bot with crap.

 

I guess if you have thousands of low quality webpages the SEs would still "notice" you.

Just like throwing thousands of lures into the water, you would get something.

 

ok im with you on that.

 

Of course it affects many things . Your keywords will increase which will increase your chance to get visitor.

 

It affect for sure. I started a huge website last month (from scratch pagerank 0. no promotion (only add my URL in google)) and so far I have +12 000 pages indexed on google and the traffic is increasing exponentially. So yes the more relevant pages your site have, the better chance visitors will find you on the search engine.

And many, if not tons, of websites outside feed themselves with Google result and will index you as well if they find you.

 

you should also put unique meta tags and content for all those 200.000 pages and update them from time to time

 

Yeh thanks for all those pointers guys

 

yup, it does.
