From 18,000 Google Index Down To 14,000 Pages Indexed

    Google removes about 4,000 pages from my site.
    Do you have any idea why this happens?
    I believe I did not violate any of Google's rules.

    njoker, I'm sorry to hear that. Now I'm not alone. But I'm not happy with that.

    I went from 616k to 389k in 2 days.

    Another went from 202k to 0.

    But, some are reporting having gained back some indexed page lately.

    I just can't understand Google why it is slashing number of indexed pages to such huge quantity even if you do nothing wrong.

    I don't understand it, too, but it's a common phenomenon. One of my sites went from 114k to 90(not k, ninety) and back up to 112k over the last weeks...like a serious hickup.

    Mine continues to drop from 18,000 indexed pages now it's 13,000. I feel like everyday Google is punishing me.

    As part of google updates, they are just cleaning some index pages...but i don't think if it is related to the mass deindexing issue. The mass deindexing issue are happen to sites that are selling and buying links...

    i think we all have the same problem then ,, an expert told me that it's because it's the end of 2007 and 2008 it's going to be better ,.

    Good Luck

    my total number of indexed pages is stable... but my pages out of the supplemental index (which you can check by searching for slash asterisk, i.e. site:www.domain.com/*) has halved. traffic also has halved. bad bad bad.
