Make Your Site Visible to Google

Hello Readers.

I know it has been a little while, but I am back with a good resource for you. I have been extremely busy working on multiple projects. All with good outcomes for you. Without further ado, let's talk about this resource I am telling you about.

When Google crawls the web looking for websites to index (put into it's database), it usually looks for a file called a sitemap, if one is available. A good webmaster will have a sitemap in place so Google can quickly index the pages on the site. When promoting a website, a sitemap is worth it's weight in gold. Google takes the sitemap data in it's index and compares it to see what pages have been updated, if any. The sitemap outlines all the pages on the website and gives them a priority.

Now for the big question.

Where can I get a tool to create a sitemap for my site?

Hey, this is where we come in. A site called XML-Sitemaps.com has put together a program to create a site map for your website. They have even made it convenient by allowing you to click on a link to download the sitemap file (sitemap.xml). It doesn't stop their either. They have different formats that you can download your sitemap in (XML, HTML, ROR).

Promote your website more efficiently by creating a sitemap for your website and get indexed by Google's web crawler.

I hope this information was helpful. If so, please leave a comment and pass it on to someone else who can benefit from this service.

Yours in success,
