Sudden increase in number of indexed URLs. How ca I know what URLs these are?
-
We saw a spike in the total number of indexed URLs (17,000 to 165,000)--what would be the most efficient way to find out what the newly indexed URLs are?
-
You can also try searching your URL in google using exact paramaters...
inurl:http://www.yourdomain.com
or if you dont have a www.
inurl:http://yourdomain.com
-
The rest are most likely put into the supplemental index (are duplicates). I'd review GWT and analyze crawl stats, crawl errors, and html improvements.
Do you have 165k pages on your site? If not, it's probably some sort of error.

Hi Oleg,
Just tried that, but, it is only showing 300 URLs for the past week and 600 for the past month..
-
You can use the SEOmoz OSE you can use your google webmaster tools and you can also use Majestic . 17,000 to 165,000 indexed pages is a huge jump.
-
Search site:yourdomain.com, click on "Search Tools" in the left column and choose "Last week" (or within whatever period you saw the increase in indexed pages).
Or, you can choose "Past Year" and then choose "Sort by Date" - this will give you the latest links indexed in order.

What is best practice for "Sorting" URLs to prevent indexing and for best link juice ?
We are now introducing 5 links in all our category pages for different sorting options of category listings.
Intermediate & Advanced SEO | | lcourse
The site has about 100.000 pages and with this change the number of URLs may go up to over 350.000 pages.
Until now google is indexing well our site but I would like to prevent the "sorting URLS" leading to less complete crawling of our core pages, especially since we are planning further huge expansion of pages soon. Apart from blocking the paramter in the search console (which did not really work well for me in the past to prevent indexing) what do you suggest to minimize indexing of these URLs also taking into consideration link juice optimization? On a technical level the sorting is implemented in a way that the whole page is reloaded, for which may be better options as well.0 -
Should I include URLs that are 301'd or only include 200 status URLs in my sitemap.xml?
I'm not sure if I should be including old URLs (content) that are being redirected (301) to new URLs (content) in my sitemap.xml. Does anyone know if it is best to include or leave out 301ed URLs in a xml sitemap?

URL rewrite traffic drop
Hello, A while ago (Sep. 19 2013) we had a new url structure upgrade for products pages within our website (with all the needed 301 redirects in place,internal links & sitemaps updates), but our new urls lost the serps of the old ones and with that we experienced a big traffic drop (and since September I can't see any sign of recovery).
