The only reason why you need
to use this tool is to check progress. This tool will tell you how many
pages of your website are indexed in Yahoo.
To know how many pages you have in Google I recommend you to signup for a FREE account at Google Webmaster Tools...
That account will provide you lots of other tools and with just one
account you basically have everything. You'll also know how many pages
are indexed in Google.
Please refer to the
SEO Videos
on how to create and submit a Google sitemap.xml file - only after you
create and submit a sitemap.xml file will Google provide you lots of
detail about your website.
You will also notice that probably in Yahoo you have more pages indexed
than in Google. That's normal, not all search engines are the same.
To know if you're progressing well just make sure that almost all of
your website pages are indexed. If you have 500, then around 420 should
be indexed. The FREE Google webmaster tools account will tell you how
many pages you have on your site and how many indexed.
So I highly recommend you follow the
SEO Videos tutorials about creating and submitting a Google sitemap.xml file so you'll get to know the numbers and data about your website -
to know what's going on!
If you have 500 pages but only 200 are indexed then probably you have
issues that need to be resolved. In most cases duplicate content
issues. If you follow proper SEO techniques such as the ones inside the
SEO Booklets - you'll not encounter such issues!
