Do ever know orphan pages affect SEO ? . 🤔🙄😥

orpahn Pages – let’s get into it..

Orphaned pages have no links, and then Google crawlers have no paths to follow to that link, and at any point they can’t reach those pages because there is no link to the orphaned page, but this affects SEO, and let me explain how?. If crawlers can’t reach links, crawlers can’t crawl the link, and there is zero chance of indexing that link. Then, as a final result, that page does not appear in the SERP.

However, crawlers are crawling the XML site map that you update to the search engine. But these orphaned pages will hurt
your site’s organic search traffic. This is like your inbound link is missing. If the inbound link does not work, your traffic will not reach the traffic will go in a different direction. because orphaned pages are also virtually invisible to visitors.
