Google Sitemaps |
Google is now providing a service to help site owners help Googlebot. The new Sitemaps service
assists Googlebot in traversing the content of your site. The most valuable benefit of the service is
that it allows you to indicate when page content is updated as well as allowing you to explicitly
indicate which pages you would like to have indexed. If you're technically savvy, there is a Sitemap
Generator that will generate a sitemap based on the pages people visit that are contained in your log
files.
