Search Engine Roundtable reports that Google has dropped supplemental result command which was used to show pages included in supplemental index.

The command that worked was site:www.seopreneur.com **** -asssdsd but now it’s no longer working.

What a bad news for search engine optimization (SEO) consultants and webmasters! Supplemental result is quite useful and allows us to check whether web pages are properly optimized. If a web page is found in the supplemental result, it means maybe the content is duplicated or you use the wrong technique to optimize the page.

This is not the first time Google dropped the command to locate supplemental result.  Luckily there’s is a new way being discovered to retrieve supplemental result which is a good news for SEO consultants.

Syntax: www.domain.com/&

Here is the link to check the supplemental result of SEO Entrepreneur website.

As suggested by Matt Cutts, seems that Google is planning to completely drop supplemental result from being access by general public. And make it as a feature in Webmaster Central Tool. If that’s the case, I think it’s good as public users only concerns about most related search results to their search keyword or phrase.
