Keywords

Fact: The more webpages your site has, the more visitors you'll get from the search engines.

Each page in your website has different text on it and because google will assign a general meaning to each page based on the text within it each page might show up for a different set of search terms in the search engines. Your "contact us" page might show up when someone searches for the city you live in. Your bio page might show up when somone searches for the name of the vintage guitar you own and mention on your bio page. So the more pages you have the more sets of search terms you can show up in the search engines for ...and more possiblities will mean more visitors.

The impact more pages has on your website goes beyond this simple explanation however. Adding pages to your site also helps to increase your page rank. This is because the search engines have deemed that larger sites (sites with more content) are more likely to be authorities on the subject matter at hand.

Remember: A page with a higher page rank has more "weight" to it and is more likely to show up in the search results over pages with a lower page rank. So increasing the overall page rank of your website means every page you currently have...and add in the future- has a greater potential to rank higher in the search engines over pages with a lower page rank.
