          Is there a way to get a list of pages that google has indexed?

          Is there some software that can do this?

          I do not have access to webmaster tools, so hoping there is another way to do this.

          Would be great if I could also see if the indexed page is a 404 or other

          Thanks for your help, sorry if its  basic question 😞

            If you want to find all your indexed pages in Google just type:  site:yourdomain.com or .co.uk or other  without the www.

              Hi John,

              Hope I'm not too late to the party! When checking URL's for their cache status I suggest using Scrapebox (with proxies).

              Be warned, it was created as a black-hat tool, and as such is frowned upon, but there are a number of excellent white-hat uses for it! Costs $57 one off 😉

                sorry to keep sending you messages but I wanted to make sure that you know SEOmoz does have a fantastic tool for what you are requesting. Please look at this link and then click on the bottom where it should says show more and I believe you will agree it does everything you've asked and more.

                http://pro.seomoz.org/tools/crawl-test

                Sincerely,

                Thomas

                does this answer your question?

                  What giving you a 100 limit?

                  try using Raven tools or spider mate they both have excellent free trials and allow you quite a bit of information.

                    Neil you are correct I agree with screaming frog is excellent they definitely will show you your site. Here is a link from SEOmoz associate that I believe will benefit you

                      this is what I am looking for 🙂 Thanks

                      Strange that there is no tool I can buy to do this in full without the 100 limit

                      Anyway, i will give that a go

                        can I get your sites URL? By the way this might be a better way into Google Webmaster tools

                        https://accounts.google.com/ServiceLogin?service=sitemaps&passive=1209600&continue=https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/&followup=https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/

                        if you have a Gmail account use that if you don't just sign up using your regular e-mail.

                        Of course using SEOmoz via http://pro.seomoz.org/tools/crawl-test  will give you a full rundown of all of your links and how they're running. Are you not seen all of them?

                        Another tool I have found very useful. Is website analysis as well as their midsize product from Alexia

                        http://www.alexa.com/products

                        I hope I have helped,

                        Tom

                          If you don't have access to Webmaster Tools, the most basic way to see which pages Google has indexed is obviously to do a site: search on Google itself - like "site:google.com" - to return pages of SERPs containing the pages from your site which Google has indexed.

                          Problem is, how do you get the data from those SERPs in a useful format to run through Screaming Frog or similar?

                          Enter Chris Le's Google Scraper for Google Docs

                          It will let scrape the first 100 results, then let you offset your search by 100 and get the next 100, etc.. slightly cumbersome, but it will achieve what you want to do.

                          Then you can crawl the URLs using Screaming Frog or another crawler.

                            just thought I might add these links these might help explain it better than I did.

                            http://pro.seomoz.org/tools/crawl-test

                            you should definitely sign up for Google Webmaster tools it is free here is a link all you need to do is add an e-mail address and password

                            http://support.google.com/webmasters/bin/topic.py?hl=en&topic=1724121

                              Thanks for the reply.

                              I do not have access to webmaster tools and the seomoz tools do not show a great deal of the pages on my site for some reason

                              Majestic shows up to 100 pages. Ahrefs shows some also.

                              I need to compare what google has indexed and the status of the page

                              Does screaming frog do thiss?

                                Google Webmaster tools should supply you with this information. In addition Seomoz tools will tell you that and more. Run your website through the campaign section of seomoz you will then see any issues with your website.

                                You may also want to of course use Google Webmaster tools run a test as a Google bot the Google but should show you any issues you are having such is 404's or other fun things that websites do.

                                If you're running WordPress there are plenty of plug-ins I recommend 404 returned

                                sincerely,

                                Thomas

                                  Hi, The way Wix is configured you can't see any of the on-page links within the source code. Does anyone know if Google Bots still count the links on this page? Here is the page in question: https://www.ncresourcecenter.org/business-directory If you do think Google counts these links, can you please send me URL fetcher to prove that the links are crawlable? Thank you SO much for your help.

                                  E-Commerce Site Collection Pages Not Being Indexed

                                  Hello Everyone, So this is not really my strong suit but I’m going to do my best to explain the full scope of the issue and really hope someone has any insight. We have an e-commerce client (can't really share the domain) that uses Shopify; they have a large number of products categorized by Collections. The issue is when we do a site:search of our Collection Pages (site:Domain.com/Collections/) they don’t seem to be indexed. Also, not sure if it’s relevant but we also recently did an over-hall of our design. Because we haven’t been able to identify the issue here’s everything we know/have done so far: Moz Crawl Check and the Collection Pages came up. Checked Organic Landing Page Analytics (source/medium: Google) and the pages are getting traffic. Submitted the pages to Google Search Console. The URLs are listed on the sitemap.xml but when we tried to submit the Collections sitemap.xml to Google Search Console 99 were submitted but nothing came back as being indexed (like our other pages and products). We tested the URL in GSC’s robots.txt tester and it came up as being “allowed” but just in case below is the language used in our robots:
                                  User-agent: *

                                  Why does Google rank a product page rather than a category page?

                                  Hi, everybody In the Moz ranking tool for one of our client's (the client sells sport equipment) account, there is a trend where more and more of their landing pages are product pages instead of category pages. The optimal landing page for the term "sleeping bag" is of course the sleeping bag category page, but Google is sending them to a product page for a specific sleeping bag.. What could be the critical factors that makes the product page more relevant than the category page as the landing page?

                                  Google indexing pages from chrome history ?

                                  We have pages that are not linked from site yet they are indexed in Google. It could be possible if Google got these pages from browser. Does Google takes data from chrome?

                                  Is there a way to get a list of Total Indexed pages from Google Webmaster Tools?

                                  I'm doing a detailed analysis of how Google sees and indexes our website and we have found that there are 240,256 pages in the index which is way too many. It's an e-commerce site that needs some tidying up. I'm working with an SEO specialist to set up URL parameters and put information in to the robots.txt file so the excess pages aren't indexed (we shouldn't have any more than around 3,00 - 4,000 pages) but we're struggling to find a way to get a list of these 240,256 pages as it would be helpful information in deciding what to put in the robots.txt file and which URL's we should ask Google to remove. Is there a way to get a list of the URL's indexed? We can't find it in the Google Webmaster Tools.

                                  Best possible linking on site with 100K indexed pages

                                  Hello All, First of all I would like to thank everybody here for sharing such great knowledge with such amazing and heartfelt passion.It really is good to see. Thank you. My story / question: I recently sold a site with more than 100k pages indexed in Google. I was allowed to keep links on the site.These links being actual anchor text links on both the home page as well on the 100k news articles. On top of that, my site syndicates its rss feed (Just links and titles, no content) to this page. However, the new owner made a mess, and now the site could possibly be seen as bad linking to my site. Google tells me within webmasters that this particular site gives me more than 400K backlinks. I have NEVER received one single notice from Google that I have bad links. That first. But, I was worried that this page could have been the reason why MY site tanked as bad as it did. It's the only source linking so massive to me. Just a few days ago, I got in contact with the new site owner. And he has taken my offer to help him 'better' his site. Although getting the site up to date for him is my main purpose, since I am there, I will also put effort in to optimizing the links back to my site. My question: What would be the best to do for my 'most SEO gain' out of this? The site is a news paper type of site, catering for news within the exact niche my site is trying to rank. Difference being, his is a news site, mine is not. It is commercial. Once I fix his site, there will be regular news updates all within the niche we both are in. Regularly as in several times per day. It's news. In the niche. Should I leave my rss feed in the side bars of all the content? Should I leave an achor text link on the sidebar (on all news etc.) If so: there can be just one keyword... 407K pages linking with just 1 kw?? Should I keep it to just one link on the home page? I would love to hear what you guys think. (My domain is from 2001. Like a quality wine. However, still tanked like a submarine.) ALL SEO reports I got here are now Grade A. The site is finally fully optimized. Truly nice to have that confirmation. Now I hope someone will be able to tell me what is best to do, in order to get the most SEO gain out of this for my site. Thank you.

                                  Best way to de-index content from Google and not Bing?

                                  We have a large quantity of URLs that we would like to de-index from Google (we are affected b Panda), but not Bing. What is the best way to go about doing this?

                                  Tool to calculate the number of pages in Google's index?

                                  When working with a very large site, are there any tools that will help you calculate the number of links in the Google index? I know you can use site:www.domain.com to see all the links indexed for a particular url. But what if you want to see the number of pages indexed for 100 different subdirectories (i.e. www.domain.com/a, www.domain.com/b)? is there a tool to help automate the process of finding the number of pages from each subdirectory in Google's index?
