New Supplemental Results Tool

We’ve added a new tool to our site – SiteMost’s Supplemental Results Tool!

So what is a Supplemental Result???

If Google discovers some issues within your site – such as duplicated content, a substantial drop in your inbound-links, lots of new pages have been added to your site quickly etc. it will place those pages into its supplemental results index. Usually pages tagged as supplemental only show up in the search index after the normal results and they are not crawled as often meaning changes to those pages may take longer to be noticed by Google.

Up until recently, Google allowed you to easily view your supplemental results by using the following command: site:yoursite.com *** -asdf, but a couple of weeks ago Google took away this feature causing a stir in the SEO industry. It didn’t remove it completely, and the supplemental results would still be displayed amongst the main results when you did a search using: site:yoursite.com, although it made it a lot harder to easily identify which of your pages may need to be fixed.

So to make it easy for webmasters and SEO’s to identify possible issues within theirs or their client’s sites, we’ve setup a new tool that effectively does what Google used to let everyone do – easily view your supplemental results with SiteMost’s Supplemental Results Tool.
