Some pages on your website just do not rank well — or at all. Sometimes, those pages do not get any traffic even if they contain valuable and well-made content. If this is the case, you may have orphan pages on your site.

Orphan pages cannot be crawled because bots do not know they exist. Pages that are not crawled fail to get indexed, which means they have no chance of ranking on search results.

If the search engine bots are not aware of their existence, then the users do not either. Users can only access such web pages if they have the link to them. And if users cannot find their way to your content, those pages are left to “float” through cyberspace and not serve their purpose.

So what exactly are orphan pages and how do you deal with them?

Ever since they were first announced, Core Web Vitals have become a mainstay in SEO discussions. There are ample reasons for this justified interest, as Core Web Vitals now inform Page Experience.

Much has changed from their initial announcement to now, so such information may be hard to consolidate. Thus, let us use this guide on Google Core Web Vitals to do so, and hopefully, help you understand them and adhere to them in the process.

You’ve decided to do an audit of your website, and you find that you have tons of old content that doesn’t rank. Although you could leave it as it is, SEO experts will tell you you shouldn’t do this because it will drag down the SEO ranking and overall authority of your entire website. Google doesn’t recommend you remove it either. According to Google’s Gary Illyes, “it’s not guaranteed that you will get any positive effect from that”.
