Supplemental Indexing in UK Only Pages

[spiceboy]

Hi Incredible

The home page is ranking in SERPS quite well as usual for Indian food on Google UK- I guess the disappearence must have been a temporary glitch.

However, the other issues remain the same. Apart from the fact that the number has reduced, the only pages showing on uk only pages are supplemental. On Google UK theres 300 odd pages indexed including supplementals.

Is it correct that new pages with grey PR toolbars (I know your feelings on the PR toolbar!)are grey just because they are new and havent been given any rank yet?

Since the pages are new I would not expect them to rank without solid in-bound links. So regardless of the color of the toolbar it doesn't matter. Make sure you have great (relevant) internal linking to all your pages, new or old. One reason blogs do well is some use a Relevant Post plugin. Your websites should be no different.

And of course develop a linking campaign that can help boost these newer pages as they mature.

I meant your site pages would show with more supplemental results after the end of June update.

Also you are correct the toolbar is empty (grey gray as others call it) when you are looking at new pages. As mentioned above about the update in June Google has daily data changes but full scoring of links and seo efforts only occurs once a quarter so that Google can effectively fight spam.

Good luck!
