Google Sitemaps FAQ

0 comments
I decided to make these frequently asked questions about sitemaps to help relieve the amount of same thread questions. Hopefully this can help answer any questions you have related to Google Sitemaps. You'll find this FAQ will be able to answer most of your questions related to sitemaps, if you don't you could always post your question in the Google Sitemaps sub-fourm on digitalpoint.


Q: What is a sitemap?

A: A sitemap is an XML file that lists all available URLs for a website, along with additional information about each URL in the file. You should always create a sitemap for your website. This will help search engines crawl your site faster and display more content. Right now the standard sitemap format is XML, all major search engine use this format for sitemaps.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: How do I create a XML Sitemap?

A: This is one task you will not want to do in notepad, it can be done, but would be very time consuming. There are many websites & freeware programs that can build an XML sitemap for you. I don’t recommend purchasing software to create XML sitemaps; many freeware programs do the exact same thing. Below is a few links to free XML sitemap generators & websites.--------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: How do I submit my XML sitemap to Google?

A: This is a very simple thing to do; I also recommend placing a direct link to your sitemap on your homepage. You can the Google Webmasters Central to submit your sitemap to Google. There are many other great features and tools with Google Webmasters Central as well; you’ll find it very useful. Below is a link to Google Webmasters Central.--------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: What is the robots.txt file?

A: The robots.txt file is part of the Robots Exclusion Protocol. You can use this file to allow or disallow search engines from crawling and indexing certain areas of your website. This is great to reduce bandwidth usage by crawlers. You can also point to your XML sitemap file; this is useful since it allows search engines to find your XML sitemap.--------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: How do I create a robots.txt file?

A: This is very simple to do. You can open notepad or any text editor you like and create the file robots.txt is text format only. Below is the basic sample code to point to your sitemap and allow indexing and crawling of all your pages. Just save this file and upload it to your top web directory.

User-agent: *
Disallow:
sitemap: Your URL to Your SiteMap
--------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: I’ve submitted my sitemap, why haven’t I been crawled?

A: Just because you submit a sitemap doesn’t mean you might get crawled any faster. New sites can take awhile to get fully indexed into Google, or any other search engine for that matter. The best way to increase this indexing is by getting quality back links to your site. Remember, the sitemap is just a map of your site for the search engines; it doesn’t increase your crawling rate. If it does, it isn’t by much.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Sitemap Resources

Below is a list of resources that may also help answer your questions, remember reading is knowledge, and the more knowledge you have the better your site will perform.

Best SEO Wordpress Plugins

2 comments

Wordpress is a great platform. It is one of the favoured content management systems (CMS) out there and it’s obvious why. It’s regularly updated. It’s easily customized and it’s suitable for the expert to the newbie. There are however several plugins which you can download and activate which will make your Wordpress more search engine friendly. Here’s the list of the top SEO plugins. They are not really in any order, just in the order I thought of them! Enjoy :)

1. All-in-One-SEO plugin

This is one of the best SEO plugins out there. With it you can customize every individual blog page/post’s title, meta keywords and meta description tags. You can also stop parts of your blog from being indexed. This avoids a lot of the duplicate content issues.

2. Google Sitemap Generator

A sitemap is a page which acts like a directory for that site. It lists every single page found on that site. It tells the search engines what new pages have been made as soon as they are made. Here’s more information about sitemaps. No coding skills are necessary and it works with all Wordpress created pages.

3. Sociable -> Antisocial

Social sites have become increasingly popular and cannot be ignored today in internet marketing. With this plugin you and your readers can easily submit to up to 99 social bookmarking sites. The Antisocial hack means that the links are nofollow. Thanks for that update :)

4. Smart Links

With this plugin you can make any phrase or word in your posts automatically link to other post/pages on your blog. Good internal link structure really does help ranking.

5. Yet Another Related Posts Plugin

While we’re on the subject of interneal linking, this plugin will choose posts that are related and display links to them at the bottom of the page.

6. Meta Robots Plugin

This will help you follow, nofollow, index, noindex any links/pages you have on your blog.

7. SEO friendly images

This plugin automatically updates your images with relevant title and alt tags. Additionally this makes the post W3C/xHTML valid as well. SEO is all about your users and useability. This helps.

8. Google Positioner

OK, this plugin only helps the admin and nothing else but I think it’s still worth a mention. It will track the positions of your desired keywords.

9. SEO Slugs

This plugin gets rid of words which you don’t want in your permalink structure such as ‘the’ ‘a’ ‘and’ making your permalinks shorter and more readable. These words are called stop words.
