Many pages are labeled "supplemental", but how bad is it in terms of SEO? Are supplemental pages ranked lower? Do they not have any trust? Is it an indication that pages are penalized in some way?

Yup, changing some words here and there would help.
I think even rearranging them could help.

Just change your keywords and description meta tags Regards Indeed. I think I know why almost all my forum has gone supplemental. Default seo4smf is very dangerous. It stuffs keywords and description with too much keywords and almost the complete text of the first post on the description. Google hates that! It's the only reason I can find have been sandboxed since using seo4smf.  |

Supplemental could be duplicate content. For a template driven forum like SMF, it means that an thread with little content could be flag as duplicate content.
To get out of supplemental index due to duplicate content, either you add more content or you can try to change your keywords and description to tell Google that the threads are different. SEO4SMF does that. But then nothing substitues for good content.

Or you could just wait for a few weeks and make sure that the old URLs are no longer indexed by Google.

dnlocal is a old forum with seo4smf ... but something is happened ... I see some mistakes in description generation ... because html_encoding is doesnt support utf-8 right ... with the latest version has changed ... and I'm curios about if that was the problem or not ... Anyway nothing will substitute good content Regards |

The most important reason for a supplement result is it being too deep in the site and less important pages linking to that supplemental page.
I have a forum.. almost all pages went into supplemental.. lost all traffic.. but when I started linking internal pages .. things are changing now.. basically if a page is in supplemental then get only 2 backlink from it from a non-suplemental pages.. and that one will get out of that too..
SIMPLE answer..
get good linkbacks for supplemental pages and you are done.. or have a high PR for homepage.. say PR5 and done.. hardly any page will then get into supplemental.

Yes, Ricky, you are correct. Google love links.
You can even get a complete duplicate page out of supplemental index by just having a lot of links pointing to it.

Supplemental results can still rank for non competitive phrases, but just deeplink to your supplementals to pull your page out.

Yes, but it is not easy to get deeplinks from other sites. Even directories.
