    Alot of these major Google mess ups are related to BigDaddy. But I was under the impression that things were starting to improve.

    Re: Huge Drop In Indexed Pages

    Does anyone have an idea what happened to my site?

    I have a HUGE decrease in indexed pages in just 4 days from 380.000 to 20.000 !? :(

    The days before, I feeled to receive the success out of my SEO work with getting more and more pages indexed, but now...!?

    See the below diagram indicating the trend:



    I haven't changed nothing in the last 3 months due to time constraints, hence I don't understand this reaction by Google at all? I can't see any reason for being penalized this way.

    Need help :(

    Cheers,

    Sebastian

    Re: Huge Drop In Indexed Pages

    This is only a guess, but it seems as if google is doing a complete reindexing of sites. I had been stuck as 10,200 for quite a while, then recently jumped to 27,000. In the past few days, it has totally dropped, then quickly climbed on almost a daily basis and currently sowing 17,000, which is a jump from 11,800 just two days ago.

    In addition, I only had 5,000 vbseo pages showing before this fluctuation, and I am currently showin over 11,000.

    I am hoping that google has finally found whatever has been screwing them up lately and this is nothing but a mere reindexing and things will be normal after this.
