Hi guys Noticed today that i had less pages indexed on Google. Is this anything i need to worry about. Traffic seems the same. Do i maybe need to spice up on inbound links? I get alot of pages and fresh content daily! What is your guys input on this? Thanks
Probably not... Does your site have a good architecture where old posts still get plenty of link juice, or is it a blog structure where they fade into the distance?
Inner linking to pages helps as does back links to specific pages. With only 1 or 2 links to a page Google figures that page isn't very important. Once I started doing some better inner linking I saw a large jump in indexed pages.
This is what I do for most of my link building works very well! I do about 6 URLS a month I always make one of the URL my Home page then i choose 5 inner links to do link building on.. I switch the 5 deep URLs every month but I may submitted an article to a couple of directories for each of the 5 deep links I used last month! That way there is always some link activity going on for the previous months link! Ian
Yes, not to worry too much - they should come back if they are well linked to. I have had many pages disappear temporarily only to come back stronger than before.
Google does this for some reason. Your site will get indexed for a while, and it will come back out of nowhere.
If google is updating (http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=1443924) then you don't need to panic, just wait a few days until rankings are more stable
hey , dude maybe , u don't ahve to worry abt that Traffic seems the same and get alot of pages and fresh content daily! then keep doing what u do , never to over react
I will suggest to not worry much. I see indexed pages of my site going down and coming back up later on. Index pages can vary. However, getting solid backlinks will help to get more of your site's pages to get indexed.
Thanks for the feedback. Yes i think it does have good structure. No it's not a blog but a directory. I m allays trying to get as many inbound links as possible. Am i allowed to post a link to my site here. Or do i need to pm it. Maybe you can tell me what you think of the structure. Thanks, for all the posts!
You probably need more backlinks to inner pages like others have said. Sometimes inner pages get left out because they are buried too deep within a site, therefore google drops it but if you get at least one link to it, then it will always stay in the index.
