Hi there, What is meant by the Google Supplemental results. Secondly site:mydomainname.com is only showing 18 results two days before it was showing 91 results. I don't know what's going on there. All my website is completely UNIQUE. I am adding 1-2 pages daily to my site. When I see my site with this command related:mydomainname.com, I don't find any similar or related pages. Any solution for getting rid of supplemental results and maintaining all the pages in the Google's index. I will be really thankful for any help in this regard. Best Regards bushib
Do you build backlinks in each page of your site? Supplementals does not only deal with content, it also focuses on the backlink of each page
you need outside sites deep linking to these inner pages of your site to get them out of supplemental
Hello, One more tip, if you have a long menu and repeat it on each page, and each page has few content, your pages can become as Supplemental.... Jakomo
Hi there, Can you please explain what do you mean by "long menu" do you site navigation or something else? Any help will be appreciated. Regards bushib
supplemental pages are the pages which are less important pages and google mostly does not send hit to supplemental pages. you can find many useful tips about supp. pages on this url http://www.seo4fun.com/notes/supplementals.html
Damn it, my pages also went into supplemental. And those are unique pages. Time to concentrate on links.
1. UNIQUE Meta Create unique titles and descriptions for each page. Go for long-tail keywords and make sure there's variety. 2. Deep linking a. link pages within themselves to guide engine crawlers in indexing your pages. b. link build by getting outside links directed to your inner pages (you can do that through social media marketing because most directories do not allow you to submit pages other than the index page) 3. Create sitemap.xml (for easy crawl of pages) then submit to Google webmaster tools (and other submission sites). 4. Upload robots.txt 5. For broken pages but are still indexed in Google, use 301 Redirect - have them redirected to your supplemental pages. That'll do the trick.
Factors of Supplemental Results: 1. Duplicate Content - take someone elses content 2. No Content - create pages with no content (empty pages) 3. Orphaned web pages. Pages that no one links to, including yourself. Contents of your site must be unique, pages must have contents and delete blank pages or put some contents if the page is empty, and have many backlinks as you can..

Some comments: This might get your pages indexed, but if you're dealing with loads of supplementals, this might just throw away loads of info too... Since you're telling Google about all your URL's in one batch, you don't know which pages it didn't find because it couldn't find your links to it... I'd advise HEAVILY AGAINST using a sitemap. what good will this do for you supplementals? Nothing that I know off... I agree on your other points though!!
