What is Pagination in SEO?

Overseeing hundred and a great many pages has dependably been an overwhelming undertaking for blogger and site proprietors (particularly e-business sites) and everybody has its own particular technique for managing it. At the point when there is a long page in site, the page is isolated into sections or parts shaping a page so that the guest can explore every page. Let's assume you have a site with 300+ pages and no. of pages are developing constantly then you have to deal with your substance and compose it in a simple way. Here utilizing pagination turns out to be critical as sorted out substance helps both the guests and crawlers.
 
FYI
Pagination, the practice of segmenting links to content on multiple pages, affects two critical elements of search engine accessibility.
- Crawl Depth: Best practices demand that the search engine spiders reach content-rich pages in as few "clicks" as possible (turns out, users like this, too). This also impacts calculations like Google's PageRank (or Bing's StaticRank), which determine the raw popularity of a URL and are an element of the overall algorithmic ranking system.
- Duplicate Content: Search engines take duplication very seriously and attempt to show only a single URL that contains any given piece of content. When pagination is implemented improperly, it can cause duplicate content problems, both for individual articles and the landing pages that allow browsing access to them.

Pagination is a way of organizing or numbering a lot of data within a webpage to make it more manageable and user friendly. The purpose of doing this is to get the search engines to crawl these pages and to distribute page rank from highly crawled pages of your site to these deeper pages of your site.
 
Pagination on websites is a system to organize content. The idea is to divide the content on separate pages. Pagination is normally displayed as arrows, a series of page numbers or "previous" and "next" buttons.
Pagination has an effect on site structure as well as usability. This makes pagination interesting for SEO as we can use it to improve crawlability and optimize our most important pages.
 
Pagination is the process of separating print or digital content into discrete pages.

For print documents and some online content, pagination also refers to the automated process of adding consecutive numbers to identify the sequential order of pages. Some types of website content benefit from being broken into separate pages to make them more user-friendly, such as search engine results pages (SERP), blogs and discussion forums.

Online articles are sometimes paginated to break up content. There is some justification to organizing long articles into multiple pages to aid the reader. However, even relatively brief articles are often paginated so that a page consists of a single paragraph and a visitor might have to click through ten or more pages to read the complete text. The purpose is to increase page views and, as a result, ad impressions -- the number of times that a website visitor sees a given ad. However, because most readers don't complete multi-page articles, the presentation of multiple short pages rather than a single long one may actually result in fewer ad impressions.
