Check Indexed Pages in Google using a Typo

NOTE: This has been fixed by Google.Â

I came across this little gem the other day & I’m sure once the rest of the search world get a whiff of it (unless Google fix it), it’ll probably spread like wildfire. So, you heard it here first

Using the site command you can check how many indexed pages you have in Google. Problem is that it’ll also display any Supplemental Pages as well.

I usually prefer to know exactly how many pages I have in the “Normal Index” minus the supplementals.

To do this I used to use: allinurl:www.earnersblog.com site:www.earnersblog.com

However a few days ago I realised that you can actually do the same thing with the site command by making a simple typo.

site:www,earnersblog.com

Notice how I made a typo by adding in a comma? This will return all your indexed pages minus any supplementals

If your site is indexed without any www. you can still use:

site:earnersblog,com

Enjoy
