If you want to know how may pages from your website have been indexed in Google, you’ll probably run a site: search operator. That won’t always work because the numbers returned by site: operator are just a hint and may have no relation to the actual figures.

To fix this issue, Rand Fishkin suggest using Google Analytics.

There’s an easy way to get much, much better data than what the search engines provide through “site:” queries and this post is here to walk you through that process step-by-step.

Step 1: Go to Traffic Sources in your Analytics and head to the Search Engines section.
