How to convert supplemental pages into normal ones?

[emiley jones]

Few of my web pages are shown as supplemental results. Is there any possible way to convert them into normal ones? what are the possible reasond for which Google indexes them in the supplemental index?

Please help.

Probably been discussed in a million other places but dupe content and identical meta tags usually guilty. Change these so each page is really differant and they will pop out of supplemental.

Thanks for your help but yes I had been aware of duplicate meta tags. But my webpages do not have identical meta tags and still they are treated as supplemental result. I am worried for this reason only...any futher help?

Not enough link strength, not enough PR to go around on the site.

A page on my site has been up for well over a year and has been in the top 3 for the main keywords for the theme of that page. All original content, and because I have an inside track on it, sometimes the latest news on the web about it. Because of this I had about 2-3 dozen inbound links to the page from related sites. It currently has a PR of 3. It is also a fairly niche term which has recently become slightly popular.

Over the past two months it has been up and down in the Serps with the 950 penalty. Sometime this weekend, it has been "moved" to the Serps. [which, by the way, is #2 if you search for omitted pages]. Google is now only registering internal links from the site to that page and 0 inbound links from other sites [I know that Wiki-P has no-follow tags now, but all the other sites as well?].

Is there anything else I can do for the page to get it back to "normal"?

The Supplemental Index is already very well discussed here, and the situation has not changed.

Marcia has it right - by far the most common reason for a url to be in the Supplemental Index is low PR. There are other possibilities as well, all detailed in the reference threads found under "Hot Topics" and pinned to the top of this forum's home page.
