which is correct

hi

I have a site. when i see how many pages got cached in my site using

site:sitename.com it shows 100 pages (10 results per page)

But when i check in advance search with (100 results per page)
it shows 70 pages.

Which is correct. (10 results per page is correct) or (100 results per page is correct).

thanks.

 

Both numbers represent what Google has indexed at a specific point in time. Perhaps advance search is/was more recent ?

 

Umm.. confusing. sounds like you are just reaching the max limit of each setting.
The answer is - you have a lot of pages cached, does it really matter how many

 

Don't confuss. it is showing 100 but there are 70 url ranking on this searching terms. It means you are using site:sitename.com. Auto display 10 links per page, go next..next ...next you'll get 70 url. If you are searching advance then you're getting all pages on this keywords. All are correct.
If your site have chached more 100 pages. you'll get next page in advance search. anyway it is search engine matter. you have to get result, any how.

 

I think some are repeated links....

 

For me, it represents the no. of backlinks include to a site, it's like you have 17,xxx backlinks but 2,xxx indexes so if you will think of it, crawling 100 backlinks on 70 url's.
