Should we send those pages to the index or not?

[wettFORM.AT]

our website relaunch is coming soon and we think about what pages we should send to the index and which ones not.
We create betting tip sites for specific matches with a lot of data including a betting tip, some stats, odd comparison, team comparison, bookmaker recommendation and some more information and stats. So we have a high quality page here with also a lot of content but no written text on it but with the option to add some text. The pages with text we send to the index that´s clear but what about the others?

I think those pages are of high value also without additional written content for our visitors and also of high value for those wo search for it.

I see some website rank with pages that have less content and lower quality.

So what do you think about such pages? Should we send them to the index. Is there anything wrong with automatic generated content when it´s of high quality and really a lot of content and not only 1-2 lines?

I index mine and they get traffic.. But I also add a little text on that page.. like an explanation how it works or something similar

But what about pages with no text but a lot of other useful information like a betting tip, a lot of stats and helpful information about the upcoming match? I can see some pages rank with nearly no content on it. I think I will give it a try when the page is ready just to see how it works.

If it is of value I would let it get indexed. Also like suggested above you could always add at least a sentence or two of text just to explain what you are showing. If the page really has zero text you have to add something so at least it can be searched.

If the pages are of value and people really look at them it will show in your drop off rate as well as how long visitors stay on the page. If both are good big G will see it and give the page props but I would definitely add a few sentences just to summarize what you have on the page.

Well then leave the description on the meta data. Get it indexed.
