Impact of Google's num=100 Removal on 77% of the Web (searchengineland.com)
2 points by oldfuture 26 days ago | hide | past | favorite | 3 comments


Google's removal of num=100 parameter last month makes it harder for third party tools (e.g. chatgpt, perplexity) to access beyond the first 10 results

This is incredibly hurting the visibility of any new emergent site as we can already see in the data


What does "num=100 removal" mean? I have no clue.


You used to be able to add “&num=100” to the url of a google search, and it would show 100 results per page.
