Problems indexing many pages on my website

Problems indexing

Hello,

I'm writing to you because I'm wondering why I'm not managing to index the pages on my website, and also to improve the positioning of those that are indexed. (bearing in mind that I have over 1 million pages on my site).
If you look at the Google Search Console curve, you'll see that I launched the website in July. At the end of September there was a first linear progression, until the end of October (from 50 clicks per day to 100 clicks per day). From November to the beginning of December, it stabilised at 100 clicks per day. However, from 8 December onwards, there was a drop to between 50 and 100 clicks until the end of December. This last period of decline could be linked to the redesign of my site's URL structure.

As far as SEO is concerned, I really try to work on all three pillars (technical, on-page and off-page). I've acquired several relevant backlinks since the site was created, but I'm not sure that the problem stems from that.

I'm looking for quick and effective solutions to index all my pages quickly, even if their initial positioning is not optimal (Even if these pages are poorly positioned, I'll have at least hundreds of thousands of pages to index in the SERP). How can I quickly reach hundreds of thousands of pages indexed in the SERP?

When it comes to positioning pages that are already indexed by Google, I make a particular effort to improve the structure of my pages. I make sure that they are better and more complete than those of my competitors. <snip>
The content of the video focuses on the easy creation of pages with semantically linked sections and keywords, without the use of tools. The idea is that pages with semantically linked sections can rank for more keywords, helping to increase traffic and reduce the volatility of Google updates through appropriate content and interlinking structure.
I'm asking for your advice on what you think might be going wrong. How can I achieve indexing as fast <snip> (which has around 4 million results, when you type site:https://www.example.com/ into google). I had asked for all the pages to be indexed at once. (1 million pages) Perhaps this was a mistake?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Excuse me, did you say one million pages? All with unique content, not available elsewhere on the web?

Hi Robert18000 and welcome to WebmasterWorld [webmasterworld.com]

As you have noticed, we don't offer site reviews in the public forums, that is only available in the Review My Site forum [webmasterworld.com...] in the paid Supporters area [webmasterworld.com...] where members can review each others' sites this way.

It could help when you type site: that you leave off the protocols and search for site:example.com

Keep in mind that the number of posts/pages is not nearly as important as their useful content. Over a million pages in a number of months does not sound like much time was spent on each page.

No, it's not all about unique content. Most content can already be found on the web. Although, of course, there's always something new.

So what's the difference?

G has an internal crawl budget for every site out there. This much and no more...

A million pages of commonly found information will not set your site apart from others.

In fact, might be courting the "duplicate content" problem.

If your pages with original content are indexed and ranking then you're okay. For now.

One million pages within months after launch from July 2023? At least thats how I understood what was said.

I agree with tangor and it sounds like scraped content was dumped into a single site. Add to that 50 to 100 clicks per day on one million pages would be about .0001% exposure of the site to actual viewers. There are sites which have a few hundred pages that rate far better in a similar time. It seriously sounds like a content issue more than anything else.

All of that being said, Google takes its sweet time anyway on what it does. You cannot speed it up, but one can certainly slow their progress if doing things wrong.
