You’d like to make it easy for search engines to find all of your blog content and index it on a regular basis so creating an XML Sitemap for your blog is a good way to keep the search engines up to date with the current status of your blog.
I have been using the Google XML Sitemap plugin for WordPress for some time now and it works quite well.
This plugin will create a Google sitemaps compliant XML-Sitemap of your WordPress blog. It supports all of the WordPress generated pages as well as custom ones. Everytime you edit or create a post, your sitemap is updated and all major search engines that support the sitemap protocol, like ASK.com, Google, MSN Search and YAHOO, are notified about the update.
This is a nice tool. It will automatically build an XML sitemap for you in the background and submit it to Google, MSN, Ask, and Yahoo. {You will need a login for the Yahoo to work}. Once you install this plugin you’ll never even know it’s there, so it’s essentially a one time effort and you’re done.
Great tool for increasing your visibility with search engines.
Next, I will show you how to modify your WordPress preferences so that you display meaningful titles on your pages rather than the generic way the WordPress does it with a numeric notion like =pg23?
That doesn’t help anyone, including search engines.
