Recently the technical people of our company were talking about supplemental ratio<\/strong> (almost a new thing for me….though I had this notion that supplement pages are duplicate page.<\/em>) I was very curious to know what is this supplemental index ratio and how one can find<\/strong> it<\/strong>. I contacted our technical heads to know about it (We surely have smart technical brains to answer almost<\/em> all the<\/em> questions<\/em>)<\/p>\n

How to calculate supplemental index ratio?<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. Go to google and search for site:yoursite.com , example google.com\/search?q=site%3Ameabhi.com<\/a> .. It says 36 results<\/strong> (This includes all the pages regular and supplemental<\/em>)<\/li>\n
  2. Now do site:yoursite.com\/* example google.com\/search?q=site%3Ameabhi.com%2F*<\/a> (It says 8<\/strong>, this is the regular pages only) OR even you do a search in aol for site:yoursite.com search.aol.com\/aol\/search?query=site%3Ameabhi.com<\/a> (It also says 8<\/em><\/strong>)<\/li>\n
  3. Now (36-8)\/36 = 28\/36 = 77%<\/strong> is the supplement index ratio for meabhi.com, which may be quite high.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    OR<\/font><\/p>\n

    You can use mapelli.info\/tools\/supplemental-index-ratio-calculator\/?domain=www.meabhi.com<\/a> (this says 75% but it might be some other datacenter for the total indexed pages as it says index pages = 32 instead of 36<\/em>)<\/p>\n

    Supplement pages are not all that bad these days<\/strong> but still you can get a better ratio. Tedster explains what a supplement page is<\/a> all about.<\/p>\n

      How to reduce supplement ratio for your site?<\/h2>\n

      I did it as experiment google.com\/site:meabhi.com+-site:meabhi.com\/*<\/a> to see the pages that are tagged supplement now I will like to eliminate it one by one. I offered my site to our technical team for experimenting with supplement results as it is quite new. I will post more about the pages<\/strong> that have gone to supplement results.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
