: Google's Index status falling down without any site changes I've a site but it wasn't touched since Sept 2013(not even comments). But in the curve I can see that Google's index has fallen down.

Some suggestions on why Google's indexation status falling down:

Your site has not been updated frequently is a main point.


A Site should get updated in contents during each Indexing by Google robots. Which will keeps your site awake & up to date. Without any update, your site will not be Crawled and visible at the top of the search engine for the enduser. Make sure the contents that you are going to update is unique and which can pass the compare algorithm by Google.
I agree with Mike Hudson on "Crawl budget lessened since Googlebot hasn't detected any new changes, so no longer crawls or indexes as deep or as frequently."

I can't answer this definitively, but here are some suggested possibilities why Google's indexation status might decline:


Indexing algorithm update that affects the way Google
discovers/indexes your site.
Crawl budget lessened since Googlebot hasn't detected any new changes, so no longer crawls or indexes as deep or as frequently.
Loss or reduction in your back-links which may affect your crawl budget.
