Random Pages being Re-Indexed

Hey guys,

Quick question - I recently ran a 'new backlink' check on Majestic.com and Open Site Explorer. It came back that several of our webpages had recently been re-indexed (or indexed for the first time?) even though they're several years old. As an example, this page was re-indexed even though no known changes were made to it - Wanderreisen in Irland - 7-tägige Dingle Way Wanderung - Dingle Wanderurlaub.

It's buried quite deep in the website and we would expect other pages to be re-indexed before that one, such as - Wandern Irland, Wanderreisen in Irland, Wanderurlaub Irland. I recently posted a thread about undesired pages ranking before desired pages in Google, so maybe this could be one of the issues?

My main question is - why would these pages suddenly be re-indexed for seemingly no reason?

Thanks
Alex

  • My thinking is that you are over-analyzing this.

    Majestic and OSE aren't Google. Are you ranking for Google or for Ahrefs?

    • We are ranking on Google but rankings aren't really the concern - I'm just wondering if anybody knows why an old page, with no recent changes on it might suddenly be re-indexed by any of Majestic, OSE, Google or Ahrefs?
