Not adding new sites vs seo

[dannyx]

I planned myself a project for a fixed number of subpages. I'm wondering what this looks like from an SEO standpoint. After all, content is important, and it seems like it should be created continuously.
Is the addition of new pages any significant factor that may affect other pages?
Google might penalize a site's lower ranking for not adding new pages?

Let's say, for example, that a site has a fixed number of subpages of about 100-200 in a narrow niche.
New pages are not added, but existing pages are updated and improved on a regular basis.

Imo adding new pages doesn't contribute to SEO of existing ones unless they are somehow related and complement each other.

I suppose here may be many examples where a website with a small number of pages ranks well in its own niche as long as the content is relevant up to date an (to a certain extent) useful.

i did something years ago and it affected my negatively, So I removed them, I think my result may have been different if I started with sub domains upon construction however I imagine other affiliates may have had better experience

It does have an impact, believe me. The more paths and texts you have coming from the sitemap, the more Google likes it and recognizes them
