Sitemaps
2008-02-14 14:38:00 The Sitemaps protocol allows a webmaster to inform search engines about URLs on a website that are available for crawling. A Sitemap is an XML file that lists the URLs for a site. It allows webmasters to include additional information about each URL: when it was last updated, how often it changes, and how important it is in relation to other URLs in the site. This allows search engines to crawl the site more intelligently. Sitemaps are a URL inclusion protocol, and complement robots.txt, a URL exclusion protocol. Sitemaps are particularly beneficial in situations when users cannot access all areas of a website through a browseable interface. In these cases, a search engine can't find these pages. For example, a site with a large "archive" or "database" of resources that aren't well linked to each other (if at all), only accessible via a search form.where webmasters use rich Ajax or Flash, and search engines can't navigate through to get to the content. The webmaster can generate ...

Why Sitemaps Are SEO Tools?
2008-01-23 16:08:00 Sitemaps are an easy way for webmasters to inform search engines about pages on their sites that are available for crawling. In its simplest form, a Sitemap is an XML file that lists URLs for a site along with additional metadata about each URL (when it was last updated, how often it usually changes, and how important it is, relative to other URLs in the site) so that search engines can more intelligently crawl the site. Web crawlers usually discover pages from links within the site and from other sites. Sitemaps supplement this data to allow crawlers that support Sitemaps to pick up all URLs in the Sitemap and learn about those URLs using the associated metadata. Using the Sitemap protocol does not guarantee that web pages are included in search engines, but provides hints for web crawlers to do a better job of crawling your site. - Do you have&nb-sp;a blogsite under&n-bsp;your dotcom name?- Check it out&nb-sp;at www.bluehost.com ...

Real Estate Blog SEO Tip of the Week: Sitemaps
2007-10-04 20:25:00 Google LOVES sitemaps! Every site should have a sitemap, especially the big ones with lots of pages. A sitemap is a complete resource guide for readers and search engines including a list and description of each page on a site. If your homepage lands a search result and you have a sitemap on your site and it was indexed then each individual page within your site will automatically be indexed for you. How wonderful is that? The use of a sitemap doesn’t guarantee that a page will be indexed immediately after you hit that save button, but the use of a sitemap provides hints for web crawlers to find new and changed content on your site. Think about this, a reader comes to your page looking for information and begins to get very frustrated not being able to find anything, what do they do? They leave! Three, that’s the average number of clicks a reader will follow until they leave your page when looking for information. Having a sitemap ...

Sitemaps 101
2007-09-07 09:05:00 A sitemap can be a valuable addition to your website or blog, but there can sometimes be confusion between XML sitemaps and traditional sitemaps. A traditional sitemap is an actual page on your site that links to all of the other pages (or at least the major ones) on your website. The primary purpose of this type of sitemap is to assist visitors when they are trying to find something specific. An XML sitemap is not a page that a human visitor would use, instead it is made to help search engines find and index all of your pages. Why is an XML Sitemap Important? Most search engines (including Google and Yahoo!) now use XML sitemaps (also called Google sitemaps) to help them find and index pages. The XML sitemap includes a link to each page on the site so that the search engine can quickly find, crawl, and index each page. By using an XML sitemap your pages can get indexed much faster than they would without one. However, the sitemap has no effect on how well the page ranks in the sear...

I often go straight for the HTML sitemap so I can click directly on the page I'm looking for.And the benefits of SEO are negated if the site provides a poor user experience, so I'm going with yes on the HTML sitemaps."--------------------------Search Engine Marketing - Enhancing brand performance online, submit for a free proposal today!

Are HTML Sitemaps Outdated?
2007-08-28 18:00:00 I've just read an article about how it's important to have an HTML sitemap to ensure Google indexes all of your webpages, while I agree with this to a certain extent I certainly don't think it's always essential, especially for small websites. My way of thinking is that your site structure should be made simple, using intuitive categories to help both users and the search engines to find your content easily.Looking at two very large UK websites the BBC and eBay they organise their website's very well with clear navigational categories. But in addition to this eBay uses an overall sitemap while the BBC has sitemaps for each sub-section. Are these needed? From an SEO point of view I would say no, Google should have no problem finding each webpage but I guess the decision is based upon the user. If the site analytics are showing that users regularly visit and navigate webpages through the sitemap it's definitely useful if not then perhaps it's unnecessary. I've added a poll as ...
