How to find all indexed pages in Google?
-
Hi,
We have an ecommerce site with around 4000 real pages. But our index count is at 47,000 pages in Google Webmaster Tools.
How can I get a list of all pages indexed of our domain? trying to locate the duplicate content.
Doing a "site:www.mydomain.com" only returns up to 676 results...
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Ben

You are absolutely right. But if you think that you have duplicate content issues, then Screaming Frog can help you tease that out.
That is also why I suggested the SEOmoz tool, since it is supposed to mimick a SE spider, it can give you a pretty good idea of any issues that you might have.
Using the advanced operator of site:domain makes sense, but if there are issues there like eyepaq said, it is going to be tough sledding.
My suggestion would be to download take a closer look at what GWT is telling you. Are there duplicates there? Is your CMS auto-generating URL's? That is probably going to be your best bet IMO.
Best of luck!

@BJS, I would export a file from GWT and filter the results. If your URLs are in GWT, then most likely it's indexed in Google.

Thank you to everyone that contributed.
@Zeph and @Francisco - I do use Screaming Frog, but actually, correct me if I am wrong, but it does not show a list of pages indexed, but rather pages that exist in the site - not what Google has already indexed. Thanks anyway
What I wanted was a way of creating a list of all indexed pages in Google - not a count.
But thank you all the same!

Hey Zeph! Hope your company is doing great.
@Ben, screaming frog is good for this. You will need to get the paid version of it. There is a video on the site http://www.screamingfrog.co.uk/seo-spider/. Use filters to get to your real URLs.

Hi,
There are tools that you can use - though for close 50k pages is harder to crawl. Best bet is the Web master tools count - although is not 100% exact either.
The site:domain is a good indicator but it's generated "on the fly" but it will show you a better result if you go "deeper" and click on page 10-20 and so on.
However right now it looks like there is an issue with site:domain. for more info see: http://www.seroundtable.com/google-site-command-cluster-16829.html
Cheers.

Use the tool Screaming Frog to see all your pages, that should help. Also, the SEOmoz toolset has a function that will show you all duplicate content (if you are a pro subscriber).

Product Pages not indexed by Google
We built a website for a jewelry company some years ago, and they've recently asked for a meeting and one of the points on the agenda will be why their products pages have not been indexed. Example: http://rocks.ie/details/Infinity-Ring/7170/ I've taken a look but I can't see anything obvious that is stopping pages like the above from being indexed. It has a an 'index, follow all' tag along with a canonical tag. Am I missing something obvious here or is there any clear reason why product pages are not being indexed at all by Google? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Update I was told 'that each of the product pages on the full site have corresponding page on mobile. They are referred to each other via cannonical / alternate tags...could be an angle as to why product pages are not being indexed.'

Google Not Indexing App Content
Hello Mozzers I recently noticed that there has been an increase in crawl errors reported in Google Search console & Google has stopped indexing our app content. Could this be due to the fact that there is a mismatch between the host path name mentioned within the android deeplink (within the alternate tag) and the actual URL of the page. For instance on the following desktop page http://www.example.com.au/page-1 the android deeplink points to http://www.example.com.au/android-app://com.example/http/www.example.com.au/4652374 Please note that the content on both pages (desktop & android) is same.Is this is a correct setup or am I doing something wrong here? Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you so much in advance.

Google authorship page versus posrt
I have a wordpress.com blog and have recently set up google authorship (at least I think I have). If I add a new post what happens to the old post in terms of authorship? Is the solution opening a new page for each article? If so does the contribution link in google+ pick up all pages if you only have home link? many thanks

Thousands of Web Pages Disappered from Google Index
The site is - http://shop.riversideexports.com We checked webmaster tools, nothing strange. Then we manually resubmitted using webmaster tools about a month ago. Now only seeing about 15 pages indexed. The rest of the sites on our network are heavily indexed and ranking really well. BUT the sites that are using a sub domain are not. Could this be a sub domain issue? If so, how? If not, what is causing this? Please advise. UPDATE: What we can also share is that the site was cleared twice in it's lifetime - all pages deleted and re-generated. The first two times we had full indexing - now this site hovers at 15 results in the index. We have many other sites in the network that have very similar attributes (such as redundant or empty meta) and none have behaved this way. The broader question is how to do we get the indexing back ?

Urgent Site Migration Help: 301 redirect from legacy to new if legacy pages are NOT indexed but have links and domain/page authority of 50+?
Sorry for the long title, but that's the whole question. Notes: New site is on same domain but URLs will change because URL structure was horrible Old site has awful SEO. Like real bad. Canonical tags point to dev. subdomain (which is still accessible and has robots.txt, so the end result is old site IS NOT INDEXED by Google) Old site has links and domain/page authority north of 50. I suspect some shady links but there have to be good links as well My guess is that since that are likely incoming links that are legitimate, I should still attempt to use 301s to the versions of the pages on the new site (note: the content on the new site will be different, but in general it'll be about the same thing as the old page, just much improved and more relevant). So yeah, I guess that's it. Even thought the old site's pages are not indexed, if the new site is set up properly, the 301s won't pass along the 'non-indexed' status, correct? Thanks in advance for any quick answers!

Google+ Local pages under review. How long does this take?
I have a couple Google+ local pages that have been placed under review. Does anyone have experience regarding the time frame of this reveiw process. Google says to give it a few weeks, but one page has been under review for four weeks now. How long should I wait for Google to review them before I delete the page and start over?

Getting 260,000 pages re-indexed?
Hey there guys, I was recently hired to do SEO for a big forum to move the site to a new domain and to get them back up to their ranks after this move. This all went quite well, except for the fact that we lost about 1/3rd of our traffic. Although I expected some traffic to drop, this is quite a lot and I'm wondering what it is. The big keywords are still pulling the same traffic but I feel that a lot of the small threads on the forums have been de-indexed. Now, with a site with 260,000 threads, do I just take my loss and focus on new keywords? Or is there something I can do to get all these threads re-indexed? Thanks!
