Why Does This Matter???
It’s Money, Plain and Simple
More Indexed Pages = $
Companies with more indexed pages on Google, Yahoo and Bing generate more sales leads.
Every 50 to 100 incremental indexed pages can mean double-digit lead growth.
Growth in new leads accelerates significantly once websites achieve 300+ pages indexed by Google.
