Google prefers big sites than small sites

The problem with internal and exteral links balance when your site grows

[silverbytes]

I'm not 100% sure but I'd say is a fact that big sites are valued and preferred agains small sites (big = more pages).

As your website grows in amount of pages, you will have more internal links in your pages. IE if your website has 10 pages your index page will be linking -perhaps- to 10 of your pages.

If your site has now 200 pages your index will link to 200 pages.

Your PR will be spread out through your internal pages, so if your PR4 is spread into 10 pages those have higher pr passed than if your PR is spread out to 200 pages.

I'm afraid as my site grows my pr decreases. In the other hand if your extrnal incoming links remains the same (or at least doesn't grow in same proportion than your internal pages) will that affect your pr in negative way?

By adding more pages!

nothing more, nothing less

Your complicated analysis about PR being shared between more pages is correct, but only as far is it goes.
If your site has more pages, then MORE pages share out their PR between more pages. You don't lose - you win.

Add more pages, link them sensibly, and then relax - it's as easy as that.

>>If your site has now 200 pages your index will link to 200 pages.

That's not the best way to structure site navigation, either for PR spread or for users. That's a LOT of choices for a visitor to get hit with right off - too many.

>>Your PR will be spread out through your internal pages, so if your PR4 is spread into 10 pages those have higher pr passed than if your PR is spread out to 200 pages.

So you link to the most important 10 pages to avoid the excessive dilution. Use a tiered structure, link from the homepage to major sections and to individual pages from there, and back to the homepage from all pages.

Watch server logs or stats for keyword phrases and patterns to see what's most interesting to people searching, and add more pages with content that enhances the user experience. Another approach would be to add content pages for sections or products that show themselves to be more profitable.

You add more *worthwhile* pages so that those pages get more links from other sites, and you have good internal navigation to spread the that you will be bringing in on all these wonderful new pages around.

Large sites do well because more people deep link them. If you increased your page count then Page Rank will be spread and you pages will rank lower as shown in my experience.
