A few weeks ago I checked site:www.mysite.com with google and they showed they ad index well over 1400 pages on my site. Now they only show 158 pages indexed. Why would this be? Could it be that different engines crawled the same pages and then they combined the results finally?

Hi Eric,

 

Thank you for your note. As you may know, results in our index change

regularly based on ongoing, automated processes aimed at improving the

quality and content of our search results. Changes you observe may

include, but are not limited to, addition of new sites, changes in the

ranking of existing sites, sites falling out of the index or getting

dropped and sites' content fluctuating between old and new content. 

 

We realize these changes can be confusing. However, these processes are

completely automated and not indicative of wrong-doing or penalization of

individual sites. We currently include over four billion pages in our

index and it is certainly our intent to represent the content of the

internet fairly and accurately. The ongoing changes you have observed are

part of this effort.

 

While we cannot guarantee that your page will consistently appear in our

index or appear with a particular rank, we do offer guidelines for

building a "crawler-friendly" site. You can find these guidelines at

http://www.google.com/webmasters/guidelines.html. Following these

recommendations may increase the likelihood that your site will show up

consistently in Google search results.

 

We hope the information we have provided above is helpful to you. Due to

the tremendous volume of information and help requests we receive, we are

not always able to provide personal attention to questions pertaining to

individual websites. If this response did not adequately resolve your

question, we hope that you will visit the webmaster section of our site at

http://www.google.com/webmasters/. In an effort to better address your

needs, we've dedicated this entire section of our website to answering

common webmaster questions, listing Google's quality requirements and

recommendations, and much more.

 

Of course, we cannot anticipate and answer everyone's questions on our

website. Realizing this, we have also created a Google discussion group on

Google Groups where Google users and webmasters can connect to share their

vast knowledge and experience. You can access this group at

http://groups.google.com/groups?q=google.p...support.general. If you

have already checked the webmaster section of our website and haven't

found an answer, we encourage you to post your question to the Google

Support group.

 

Regards,

The Google Team

Subject: Where are my pages going?

About 2 weeks ago when I used site:www.agiftco.com, Google showed to have

1400+ of my pages indexed. Earlier today it showed only 150. Now it only

shows 99. Why are my pages disappearing from your engines? Have I done

something wrong? I don't have any fake pages or bad links or hidden words

or anything that I've heard Google doesn't approve of. Please let me know

if there is something wrong with my site so I can change it quickly. I

would hate to be on Google's bad side. I have tried hard to make sure I'm

not. So if I am, please let me know how. Any help you can provide is

greatly appreciated.

 

Eric
