    I have to remove it!

    It's gotten rediculous!

    I can't keep up with it anymore!



    I'm only talking about the googlebot alert code of course in my FREEBS book stores. I have dealt with thousands of emails this weekend and today alone!

    I'm pretty convinced that we are ok on this part of our expectations and can remove the affirmation.

    Now I'll just use the site: command to check progress. :D

    You do know that Google offers the Google Alerts service, right?

    http://www.google.com/alerts

    You can put in site: or link: or any other parameters that you feel like and it will send you an email when changes are made.

    I can't find one tangleble reason to back up a thought like that.

    It's not like you are putting out the links. G has to come into them. That does not happen in what I would call suddenly.

    There are plenty here with established and new sites with hundreds of pages indexed from the bookstore and only increased income and traffic have been reported to date.

    This is a legitimate affliate store. The web is made of such ventures in many forms. Appling a penalty for such is yet to be proven in the past that I'm aware of.

    Putting people's minds to rest on such conjecture is a very hard job, I don't envy you.

    I just put up a second book store about law and legal books last night that has roughly 2000 items in it so far. Googlebot picked up on it today and is still adding my sports books titles to its index.

    I wouldn't worry too much about a mass influx of pages. I've never seen a site get penalized because a lot of pages have suddenly shown up on a domain. I've probably added 30,000+ pages to my domain (FREEBS + Another forum archive) and have noticed Google and Yahoo picking up on them quickly and are starting to index a good portion of these pages daily.

    Shouldnt be an issue. Google doesnt rank a site based on how many pages it has per se (although it does like larger sites a bit more it seems). It does watch incoming links though and a jump in new links out of nowhere can trigger some scrutiny.

    I added the Freebs to a site and google simply ate it up. A site that had 2 dozen pages now has about 5000 indexed.

    Yeah but this is a bit like having to finish cleaning the garage out when what you really want to do is install that new software and try it out :eek:

    I think my store is starting to grow out of control. I'm getting a new book added to the index roughly every couple of seconds. This isn't bad, persay, but just an observation :)

    Just remember, if that happens, you can empty the DB and not hurt your indexed pages in the serps. :)
