How many pages does the website need? The ambiguous relationship between perspective optimization and page count

 I believe many people have this problem,

How many pages do you need to help SEO and website ranking?

In fact, there are currently two opinions on the ambiguous relationship between SEO and the number of website pages.

One group believes that more is of course helpful, the other group believes that quantity has no direct effect on SEO.

So there is no standard answer as to how many pages a website needs.

But it can be analyzed from several aspects to quantify an approximate figure.

 

1.  Competitors
look at the number of pages on your competitor's website. If the number of pages of your competitor is much higher than your website, you may have to find a way to generate more pages to compete with it!

2. Classification and internal links
No matter how many pages there are, users must be able to see what they want to see easily and quickly. To achieve your goals, you must do a good job of classification and optimize internal links!

3.  Page uniqueness
If there are many pages, but the content is similar, it is basically the same for search engines and users. Therefore, when adding pages, it is necessary to maintain the uniqueness of each page to improve user retention time.

 

Observation of foreign websites shows that in order to achieve good optimization results, it is recommended that the number of website pages should not be less than 40 pages.

In terms of website traffic, websites with more than 40 pages will have higher traffic than websites with less than 40 pages !

I also remind everyone that it’s not enough to add a new page, the content of the page is also very important

For each new page, the word count should be at least 300 words in English or 600 words in Chinese to facilitate SEO.

 

Excluding the relationship between the number of website pages and SEO, the more important thing is to think about:

"How many web pages meet the needs of the target audience?"

"Are these pages helpful to improve the user experience?"

 

After thinking about the above two questions, I believe you will have more ideas about your website management.

The important thing is to think from the perspective of users and provide what they need to have the opportunity to retain business opportunities and turn visitors into customers!
