# Total Pages Indexed, Google Search Console

> The count of your pages Google has indexed and can serve in organic results for the period. How to read it, why it matters, and how to act on it.

**Card class:** [Non-Hero](/nerve-centre/overview#card-classes-explained)  •  **Category:** [Page SEO Performance](/nerve-centre/connectors#connectors-by-type)

## At a glance

> **Total Pages Indexed** is the number of your URLs that Google has indexed and is eligible to show in organic results for the selected period. Indexed means crawled, processed and stored, the prerequisite for any page to earn an impression or a click. Read this as the size of your sellable shop window in Search: a stable or rising count alongside healthy impressions is normal growth, while a sudden fall is an early de-indexing warning that usually shows up here before clicks visibly drop.

## What it tracks

The card reports the count of indexed URLs for the property, sourced from Search Console's index-coverage data (the same data behind the **Pages** report under **Indexing**). It counts only pages in the **Indexed** state, not pages that are **Not indexed** (excluded by `noindex`, canonical, crawl errors, redirects, soft 404s or "discovered, currently not indexed"). A gap between the URLs in your sitemap and the indexed count is the headline diagnostic: it tells you how much of your intended catalogue Google is actually willing to serve. Track it next to [Indexed Pages](/nerve-centre/kpi-cards/google-search-console/indexed-pages) and [Index Coverage Trend](/nerve-centre/kpi-cards/google-search-console/index-coverage-trend) for direction over time, [Pages Not Indexed](/nerve-centre/kpi-cards/google-search-console/pages-not-indexed) to see what is being excluded and why, and [Total Impressions](/nerve-centre/kpi-cards/google-search-console/total-impressions) to confirm indexed pages are converting into visibility.

## Reconciling against the source

Compare against Search Console's **Indexing > Pages** report, the green **Indexed** total, for the same property. Expect a lag: the **Pages** report updates on Google's own crawl cadence (often slower than the 2 to 3 day Performance delay), so a freshly published or freshly removed batch of URLs can take days to settle into either the report or this card.
