      When setting up pagination, what should we limit the page size to? When will a searchbot stop crawling a particular page?

        I think the ideal size is below 500k, yet I feel Google will crawl even larger sized pages if the content provides value for the users.

        Back in 2005 I remember Google had much tighter figures on these types of numbers yet in today's market it is a bit different, they seem to allow larger file sizes.

        • Have a client that migrated their site; went live with noindex/nofollow and for last two SEOMoz crawls only getting one page crawled. In contrast, G.A. is crawling all pages. Just wait?
