Greetings Warriors!

I have few questions about Pagination.

Do you really want to paginate the posts on the homepage?


I believe Google rewards people for having a great deal of content on the homepage... so why remove it?

Do you agree that with the excerpt plan and pagination, Google will understand it as we are doing this to give best results for visitor?

If so, would it be better to only paginate the single posts?

Please share your thoughts on this!

All The Best,
G.B.

    If you have a lot of posts then pagination is not an option for at least two reasons:

    * Displaying a list of your 253 posts takes time (loading speed is a ranking factor)
    * With a blog (when you display posts on the homepage instead of a "page") it's usually the posts themselves that you want to rank, not the homepage.

    A blog homepage with hundreds of blog posts or hundreds of blog excerpts is not going to be good for your visitors. Also, you'll end up with a lot of weird longtail traffic where either you don't actually have what they are looking for or they can't find it among all the posts you have. Pagination is good!

    Thanks for the inputs, Warriors. I really appreciate it.

    How about if we have 7 posts in our page and then the latest post won't be paginated , only the rest of the posts?

    What do you think?
