Flag for United States of America asked on

search to determine if one page is in google

is there a google search to determine if a page is listed in google

please dont tell me
site:website.com "words on page"
because these words may have changed in the past or the future

I want an easy search such as
this page.html

ideally a search that returns one result if page is there or not
so I do not need to look through 50 results

known:
page url
which does not change


for example
we know the page url of this page is
Q_28643705.html
Search Engine Optimization (SEO)Web Development

you can try the following:

pageName.html site:www.abc.com

As you're looking for a single result, you'll want to leverage the "info:" operator:
Get information about a URL, including the cached version of the page, similar pages, and pages that link to the site.

Using the Experts Exchange "Web Development" page as an example, you can see the results here, using the following string:
info:www.experts-exchange.com/Web_Development/

Open in new window


Keep in mind, the page must be cached in Google in order for this to return a result.
