When I do a google search for my site example.com, it shows almost 20K results, the bottom navigation only shows pagination till the 7th page, when I click on each page result, on the 4th page itself, i.e for results 30 to 40, it states
"In order to show you the most relevant results, we have omitted some entries very similar to the 32 already displayed.
If you like, you can repeat the search with the omitted results included."
Where as the results doesn't show links where I know I have done link exchanges with, or pages from different sites pointing towards mine.
My website is just over an year now.
Can anybody please explain, thanks in advance.

[edit reason] switch to example.com - it cannot be owned [/edit]
Unique titles, descriptions and content are key. If your site has very little textual content, such as in a video game site, google won't rank all of the pages.
Visit each page and add at least a paragraph of unique text that accurately describes each page and many more will likely get ranked.
Another consideration is internal link structure but your description is extreme, fix the rest first.
edit: if the majority of your pages contain content gathered from feeds it is duplicate content and will likely never rank. I should have mentioned that too, unique and "worth ranking" is important.
