Can adding thousands of new indexable URLs to my site at once be a problem?

[StevenLevine]

Hi everyone,

I am currently working on a project that will quickly add thousands of new indexable URLs to my site. For context, the site currently has over a million indexable pages. Is there any danger of adding a few thousand URLs at once to the site? Could it potentially affect crawlability/SEO/other pages?

Thank you!

With that many pages, I assume you are already carefully managing structure and crawlability. I wouldn't think that about few thousand pages on a site of a million would make that much difference (Your new pages only make up 0.1% of your total site), if they're linked properly and included in the site map(s) correctly you shouldn't have much issue. I certainly wouldn't suggest drip feeding them in.

I agree - thanks for the response!
