The sudden Increase in competing sites

G's new dynamic indexing power results in more competition for phrases

[James_Dale]

Google's recent quantum leap with regard to dynamic indexing also means that the levels of competing sites for phrases have massively increased.

Example: I've seen some search terms leap from 80,000 competing sites up to around 450,000 in just one month.

Given that I charge clients for phrases depending on the level of competition per phrase, this is a bit of a problem, particularly for sites I've quoted in the last few weeks!

It seems to me that now with all the newly added dynamic pages, getting ranked high has again become that much more difficult.

Do you think that given the nature of these new indexed pages, they are unlikely to rank high, i.e. rather than being 'optimised' pages, many of these will simply be pages which mention the search term, that have not been indexed until now.

In which case, are these going to significantly impact on the ability to achieve target phrases or not?

Ideas on this matter gratefully received -
Cheers,

I'd say that every page would compete on equal terms with every page, whether dynamically generated or not.

If the site producing dynamic pages is just serving different titles to the same content on multiple pages, you could wonder if Google will pull in some kind of duplicate content rating though...
