          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

                                  React.js Single Page Application Not Indexing

                                  We recently launched our website that uses React.js and we haven't been able to get any of the pages indexed. Our previous site (which had a .ca domain) ranked #1 in the 4 cities we had pages and we redirected it to the .com domain a little over a month ago. We have recently started using prerender.io but still haven't seen any success. Has anyone dealt with a similar issue before?

                                  Morning all! I am doing some research at the moment and am trying to find out, just roughly, how long you have ever had to wait to have a page re-indexed by Google. For this purpose, say you had blocked a page via meta noindex or disallowed access by robots.txt, and then opened it back up. No right or wrong answers, just after a few numbers 🙂 Cheers, -Andy

                                  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.

                                  Links from non-indexed pages

                                  Whilst looking for link opportunities, I have noticed that the website has a few profiles from suppliers or accredited organisations. However, a search form is required to access these pages and when I type cache:"webpage.com" the page is showing up as non-indexed. These are good websites, not spammy directory sites, but is it worth trying to get Google to index the pages? If so, what is the best method to use?

                                  Why are bit.ly links being indexed and ranked by Google?

                                  I did a quick search for "site:bit.ly" and it returns more than 10 million results. Given that bit.ly links are 301 redirects, why are they being indexed in Google and ranked according to their destination? I'm working on a similar project to bit.ly and I want to make sure I don't run into the same problem.

                                  Wordpress blog in a subdirectory not being indexed by Google

                                  HI MozzersIn my websites sitemap.xml, pages are listed, such as /blog/ and /blog/textile-fact-or-fiction-egyptian-cotton-explained/These pages are visible when you visit them in a browser and when you use the Google Webmaster tool - Fetch as Google to view them (see attachment), however they aren't being indexed in Google, not even the root directory for the blog (/blog/) is being indexed, and when we query:site: www.hilden.co.uk/blog/ It returns 0 results in Google.Also note that:The Wordpress installation is located at /blog/ which is a subdirectory of the main root directory which is managed by Magento. I'm wondering if this causing the problem.Any help on this would be greatly appreciated!AnthonyToTOHuj.png?1

                                  Should pages of old news articles be indexed?

                                  My website published about 3 news articles a day and is set up so that old news articles can be accessed through a "back" button with articles going to page 2 then page 3 then page 4, etc... as new articles push them down.  The pages include a link to the article and a short snippet. I was thinking I would want Google to index the first 3 pages of articles, but after that the pages are not worthwhile.  Could these pages harm me and should they be noindexed and/or added as a canonical URL to the main news page - or is leaving them as is fine because they are so deep into the site that Google won't see them, but I also won't be penalized for having week content? Thanks for the help!

                                  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?
