Partially indexed pages, Adsense Page Views

Do partially indexed pages count in Adsense Page Views

[bumpski]

One of my sites is having the infamous "Partially Indexed" phenomena, to use Google terminology. Many here have called it "URL only" listing.

Reasons for partial indexing (Page rank?)

Some of these partially indexed pages tend to be smaller, some have similar URL's and titles to other pages, most are at lower levels in the linking structure.

Some of these URL only pages have poorly targeted ads.

Other partially indexed pages that perhaps might be perceived by Google as duplicate content (they're not) seem to have ads virtually identical to another page that might be considered the original, older, or parent page.

It seems like Adsense also determines a site's overall topic (theme) and establishes an associated ad "set" and uses this default when it doesn't know better, perhaps for "Partially Indexed" pages as well?

What's your percent, partially indexed to total, versus Adsense Ad Impression to your perceived page impressions using whatever means.

Are Partially Indexed pages counted by the Adsense Page Impression counter? I'm just wondering. Historically pages did have to be indexed for Adsense to function. Was this requirement fully indexed or partially?

I have a truly unique "string" (WWDDGTS example) in my page titles so its easy to use Google to find my partially indexed pages. Great to find "static" scraper pages too! (Search engine pages aren't static!)
Search:
www.widgets.com -WWDDGTS
Result Partially indexed pages.

Search
-www.widgets.com WWDDGTS
Result: Mostly Scrapers (Natural Linkers usually don't copy Titles; search engine results are not static so they don't show)

Right now 31% of my pages are partially indexed (not good Google, they are all crawled properly), BUT HOW does this affect Adsense Page Impressions?

Notes:
Before May 5th: If you had multiple ad units per page Adsense Page Impressions miss-reported high especially if you had Adlinks and an Ad Unit.

After May 5th: Adsense Page Impressions are less than actual host impressions. There of course could be many reasons.

I'm not quite sure I get your point, but Google's main index has nothing to do with the number of impressions that Adsense reports.

If somebody comes to a page that Googlebot has never come to before, if it has Adsense, then it will count as an impression. You don't have to have any pages in the Google index for this to happen.

I agree with diamondgirl.

My site lost 85% of pages in Google to either url-only or totally removed during last two weeks.

Most likely due to highly bloated boilerplate on pages with just a few paragraphs of content.

My adsense stats (EPC,CTR,CPM) have never been better and page impressions pretty much match my visitor counter statistics.

I do notice a site theme as you mentioned.. when confused, adsense always reverts to what it thinks the site is about. However, this situation has improved while I've gotten rid of extraneous navigation menus.

Thanks for the feedback. Here is one link quoted below from the Adsense Help:
[google.com...]

Our system has not yet crawled all the pages of your website.
You may notice that after you place the AdSense ad code on a web page, you do not receive the most relevant ads. If Google has not previously crawled your site, it may take up to 48 hours or more before our crawlers gather content from that page. In the meantime, the ads you see may be public service ads, for which you will not receive earnings. Or, you may see only slightly relevant ads. The relevance will increase over time.

Also:
[google.com...]

How soon will ads begin appearing on my site?

If Google has not previously indexed a page, it may take up to 48 hours or longer before our crawlers gather content from that page. In the meantime, the ads you see may be public service ads, for which you will not receive earnings. The relevancy of Google ads on your pages will improve over time.

I believe this used to be mentioned more predominantly that Google itself had to have crawled your site, whether its significant now..?
They seem to indicate Adsense descriminates between the Google crawl and the Mediabot crawl, but I also believe that Adsense ads do show even if Google never indexed that site, but I'm not sure they're very relevant ads.

Also note the relevance will increase over time, I've found that to be true.

Also on the first link page is the mention of adding the text below to robots.txt, which I still have:
User-agent: Mediapartners-Google*
Disallow:
I think this is actually a missuse of robots.txt but I tend to do anything Google says. ( Hope there's no cliffs around ).
I wonder how many Adsense users ad this?

Anyway my Adsense Page Impressions are somewhat lower than my website's reported Page Views and since until recently the Adsense Page view stats have been way off 2 to 3 X high, at least in my case, I don't have much good data yet.

And yes I've lost quite a few pages as well to "partial indexing". If we are examples Google has "partially indexed" 30% of the web content this month. I do have a couple pages with lots of content (30K) out of the index that had been stable before, but then my Pagerank has been dropping so who knows.
