Welcome to the Q&A Forum

Thank you for the answer.

I have another website with 28000 unique pages that all linked to home page. My home page optimised for one keyword but I can't get it in top even though my competitors are way smaller and they are in top with almost no seo.. On the other hand I have looooots of traffic on internal pages, but internal pages only.

No, the main keywords were like seattle landscaping and long tail like retaining walls seattle

Hi Guys,

We have a good website strong onsite and offsite seo. A year ago, we had a 15 pages website for all main keywords we needed and we were on top 3 for most of these keywords in google. We were happy but we wanted more..

So we created lots of unique content targeting long tail keywords and created 100 more pages for the website.  In next 4-5 months we lost positions for almost all our main keywords but got lots of longtails SERPs. Trafiic grew but the quality and the conversion rate shrinked.

Everybody keep saying that it doesn't matter how many pages you have on the website as long as content is unique and I don't think it is true. I see lots of 3-5 paged websites without any seo in top 3 results in google.

Does it mean that if I delete all these 100 pages that I created I will have more chances to get my main keywords SERP back?

Basically does the seo juice that you have on domain is spreading across all pages and the more pages you have the less juice every page will get?

We had a 10 pages website that was doing great with very competitive keywords, ( Vancouver Landscaping, Surrey Landscaping, etc)  than we added 90 more pages to the website in order to target long tail keywords. Our traffic grew a little bit, but we lost all high competitive keywords, instead we got more traffic for our long tails like ( Yard clean up Burnaby). Is it a common rule in SEO?

If yes, should we de index or even delete "long tail" pages that not receiving any traffic? Would it give us bigger chance to get our high competitive keywords back?

We are looking for a SEO strategist that can help us, so suggestions and audits would be greatly appreciated and could lead to business with us.
