A page will not be indexed if published without linking from anywhere?

[vtmoz]

Hi all,

I have noticed one page from our competitors' website which has been hardly linked from one internal page. I just would like to know if the page not linked anywhere get indexed by Google or not? Will it be found by Google?

What if a page not linked internally but go some backlinks from other websites?

Thanks

If a page has no links and has not been submitted another way, Google won't see it.

Hi Linda,

Beside fetch as Google, the page will be indexed if it has no internal or external links?

[Linda-Vassily]

Google has a number of ways to find pages, including links from indexed pages (whether internal to the site or external) as well as sitemaps and Fetch as Google.

Most of the time when you come across a page like that (one that has few if any internal links) it's not an organic-traffic oriented page, it is set up for some other purpose, like a landing page for a marketing effort.

Hi,

If there are no links to the page, Google will not find the page. Well, if the page is listed in the sitemap, Google finds it, but will not give it a lot of value/authority, if no other page are linking to it.
