Free online tool to find supplementary Index pages
| Tweet | Share |
August 1st, Google officially pulled off the supplementary index search operator because Matt thought that it’s not really important and people are un necessarily crying over it.
So the “site:www.yoursite.com ***-view” operator does not function anymore on Google.
For those of you who are obsessed with checking the number of supplementary index pages (like how i used to be prior to Matt’s declaration), Daniel from dailyblogtips has come out with an idea to find the number of supplemtnary index pages on your site.
He thinks that the following query will show you the supplementary index number.
Total Pages Indexed = site:www.yoursite.com
Pages in the Main Index = site:www.yoursite.com -inallurl:www.yoursite.com (or allinurl:www.yoursite.com)
Pages in Supplemental Index = Total Pagex Indexed – Pages in the Main Index
Daniel proved that he’s a smart guy with this logic. Otherwise, why didn’t anyone else think this way?
Well, why i didn’t think this was is because I’ve been using a free online tool, that would give me the number of supplementary pages on my blog on various Google data centres. Here is the tool. Just give in your domain name and it shows you the data server, along with the number of pages in S.Index against it.
The results are similar to Daniel’s method – though the tool shows some more pages (few hundreds) on this blog. Now, that’s good or bad – you decide.
Oops! Almost forgot to write the advatage/disadvantage list. Here goes..
Disadvatages of Daniel’s method
- You got to learn how to use a calculator
- You have to have learned the basic of mathematics (a boring subject.)
- You have to know how many lakhs make a million (10 lakhs = 1 million)
- You waste your energy with more number of clicks
Advantages of the free tool
- No mathematics
- No calculator
- Less clicks
- save your time
Let me know if you can list more..

Max, I don’t get satisfactory result on doing site:www.yoursite.com/& it just lists the number of pages on normal index. Try doing it for a parger site on the tool i recommended. I got satisfactory results. Let me know if you have any findings.
Hey, nice to see it, as there are none other way of calculating supplement pages. If anyone have any alternate to calculate the supplement, let me know.
Hi Mani,
I tried Darren’s method and here is my blog’s status
55(total)-6(main index)=49 serps??
Now,i dont know whther it is good or bad:-(
I used to think that submitting articles to ezinearticles will bring in more traffic and it actually has done that for me.But,i generally modify my posts and put them as articles.
Should i stop doin that??
Ankit, keep doing ezinesubmissions, but don’t do it extensively. Forget about supplementary index, this is a very insignificant figure, Id suggest you focus more on developing more content. That will put you to the safe threshhold giving you the luxury to forget about the petty things.
