Video: Matt Cutts On Should I Add an Archive of Hundreds of Thousands of Pages to Website all at Once or in Stages?

A new webmaster helps video released by Matt Cutts, the head of Google’s web-spam team on 17 Apr, 2013. This is a response to question asked by a John Mueller: “A newspaper company wants to add an archive with 200k pages. Should they add it all at once or in steps?”

@mattcutts Some people say slowly add the pages over a month, while other say it should be fine.

In a recent Matt Cutts video Matt says, “I think we can handle it either way, so we should be able to process it, but if we see a lot of pages or a lot of things ranking on a site all of a sudden, then we might take a look at it from the manual web spam team. So if it doesn’t make any difference whatsoever to you in terms of the timing of the roll-out, I might stage it a little bit, and do it in steps. That way, it’s not as if you’ve suddenly dropped five million pages on the web, and it’s relatively rare to be able to drop hundreds of thousands of pages on the web, and have them be really high quality.”
