How can I see how many pages of a particular website are in Google?

Rather than searching through the results untill the end.

Hi,

Is there an easy way to see how many, and which pages of a particular website are already indexed by Google, without having to search through the entire list of results?

Greetz,
Alex.

Welcome, Alex.

You can use [ site:example.com -xyzabc ], where xyzabc isn't in the site; or [ site:example.com example ] to get them usually in roughly importance order.

You can also use inurl:domain-name

[ciml]

That's helpful, but inurl:example.com also matches www.example.org/directory/example.com/about.html

Another simple way is to user "yoursite.co.uk" and then as it is normally on the first page there will be underneath the description

[ More results from www.yoursite.co.uk ]

Voila!

@TinkyWinky:

Syntax of what you recommend is like:

site:www.yourdomain.tld yourdomain

[bpresent]

site:example.com -xyzabc

has always seemed to work well for me - has anyone found problems with this?

As far as I've seen, the results for this search are flawless. There are no pages missing.

You can even take it to the .tld level:

site:.org -wrwywoiuuy

If I do the site:example.com -xzyabc search for my site, I get 5,360 pages.

When I did the same search this morning, I got about 6,300 pages.

I just counted my pages manually and got 3,511.

So what's going on? (The only thing I can think of is that I maintain my site in FrontPage, which keeps duplicates in a _vti_cnf folders on the server. But I don't know how Google would spider the duplicates--I don't think they're linked from anywhere--and if it did crawl them, I should be able to see them on at least a few of the SERPs.)

The URLs could be different forms of essentially the same thing -- with and without the "www" for example. If there are links on the web using both forms, then they can both stick in the index.

site:example.com -asdfasdf works great, and I remember GoogleGuy suggesting exactly that approach a few months back.

You might also want to add &filter=0 to the end of the URL after you search for site:example.com -fsdfdr, so that you see all the pages of the site without going to the end of the list, and having to clicking on the "repeat the search with the omitted results included" link.

With the following searches of my site:

inurl:www.mysite.com
- 917 results.

allinurl:www.mysite.com
- 917 results.

inurl:mysite.com
- 917 results.

allinurl:mysite.com
- 917 results.

site:www.mysite.com -hjdkflsd
- 1350 results.

site:www.mysite.com mysite
- 1350 results.

A search for www.mysite.com did not give me a "More results from www.mysite.com" link.

I think the "inurl" or "allinurl" searches are more accurate than the "site" searches, at least on my site they are. The additional ~400 pages found using "site" are all old pages that have been 301-redirected to new pages (new URL, same page). These don't seem to appear in the searches that resulted in 917 pages.
