Jack1121. That site now hosts tens of thousands of pages. (What does this sentence mean?)
To understand the number of pages, you should not think in terms of 1, 2, 3, etc., or 10, 20, 30, etc., or 100, 200, 300, etc, or even 1,000, 2,000, 3,000, etc. Instead, think in terms of 10,000, 20,000, 30,000, etc.

A loose definition is greater than 10,000 and less than 100,000.
