Matt Cutts: Website with More pages Do Not Get Higher ranking Automatically

In a new video released by Google’s head of search spam, Matt Cuts said that “I wouldn’t assume that just because you have a large number of indexed pages that you automatically get a high-ranking, that’s not the case”.

Cutts also said that website with more pages will naturally get more traffic because each of the individual pages can also rank for their own set of search queries, increasing the overall opportunity for sites to gain visitors.

If the site does not have more pages, it might have more links pointing to it, which means it has higher page rank, Cutts added that “if that is the case we might be willing to crawl a little bit deeper into the website and if it has higher PageRank, then we might think it’s a little bit of a better match for users queries.

Having a large site is great, but need to ensure that you have inbound links to your site in order to help it rank and get higher PageRank.

 

Matt Cutts answer to a question about geo-location

In the latest Google webmaster help video, Matt Cutts responds to a question about geo-location: If I am offering the useful information to the users based on the geo-location. Will Google consider this as spam?

He says “ Geo-location is not a spam “, as long as “you’re showing, if someone’s coming from a French IP address, let’s redirect them to the French version of my page or the French domain for my business that’s totally fine”. The thing that I would do is make sure that you don’t treat search engines any differently than a regular user.

Hence if Google bot comes in, you check the IP address, imagine that we’re coming from the United States, just redirect Google Bot to the United States version of your page or the .com-whatever that you would serve to regular United States Users.

The last part of the question he says, is cloaking and is something he would be “very careful about”. The point is, just treat Google bot like every other user and you should be fine
