I’m puzzled by Google at times as I’m sure a lot of webmasters are. I’ve just noticed that some of the pages of this site have been labelled as “Supplemental Result”.

Anyone who has a website for long enough will likely have this happen to them but I am puzzled as to how Google determines which pages they place in the supplemental index.

One of the pages that has gone supplemental is www.philipnicosia.com/page/3/

Now this page updates virtually everyday and has done so since it was online. Any search results going to this page are going to be months out of date and pretty pointless for the user. I could understand if this page remained the same months on end by why has this page in particular been singled out?

I don’t have the same problem with much older pages such as page/4/ page/5/ right up to page/20/ so what has Google got against page/3/ ?
