I am trying to work out if I should be concerned about this. I have a site which has had the number of indexed pages increase by 105,000.
This has growing on a monthly basis, on average 25,000 a month.
Looking at the last 4 months I can see that in may for example my organic results were around 35,000 from Google. I have not noticed any particular change in these figures month on month.
The site is all one particular industry, clean urls, content rich and regularly updated.
Should I be concerned about seeing no growth in organic results with such good increases in indexed pages?
Are these pages very similar to other pages on your site with very little 'new' content and perhaps just 1 or 2 changes on each page?
The new pages could tripping a duplicate content filter and the search engines just ignoring them.
If your new pages are different and have plenty of original content you maybe just need to wait for the SE's to spider them properly and get into the results....which can take a few weeks depending on where you have added links to the new pages.
For instance, pages that I link from my homepage can be indexed within 1-2 days, where as if I include them deeper into the website it can take 2-3 weeks.
Its picking up pages from crawling the site as its very very big.
If I allow for the fact that indexing versus ranking, and I can track the data back shouldnt growth be seen after growth in month 1 an increase in organic results by month 3.
My issue is the organic results seem static over a reasonably long period of time. and growth in indexing from one period is not showing in organic results for a later period.
Is it really not cause for concern?
