      Hello,

      Just a quick, question! I was wanting to know if multiple page indexing (site overhaul) could cause a drop in organic traffic ranking or be penalized by Google for submitting multiple pages at one time.

      Thanks

        Nope - not for submitting for indexing. If there have been considerable page changes though, traffic could fluctuate as search engines take their time figuring out and understanding the changes.

          In addition to Paul's answer.

          You will have to make sure the pages are unique in terms of  meta title, description and content. Duplicate tags are bad and can lead to lowering your results.

          A site overhaul brings many points of attention in respect of not losing any built up link juice. Make sure you make permanent redirects (301) for your old pages to the new ones.

          You can get penalized trying to fool google. Better not try that. But hard organic work will usually be rewarded but takes time unfortunately.

            • Our urls for adwords are slightly different from current urls presented on site (weused htaccess to help create shorter urls). How important is it that the adwords url match the sitemap url for keywords on those pages?
