Sitemaps - Uncover the Only Quick and Easy Site Submission Strategy
By Joe Borges
What is the easiest and quickest way to get your site spidered and
listed by Google and Yahoo?
This is an enternal question, one that many frustrated SEO
specialists and online business owners are still trying to figure out.
The trick to answering this question is to find out exactly what
Google and Yahoo want you to do to get listed; not what you
THINK they want you to do. That being said, the tried and true
methods to get your pages indexed and listed by Google and
Yahoo have been the following:
1. Blogging and Pinging
2. Submit your website through the standard submission form
provided by Yahoo and Google
3. Pay a search engine submission service to do it for you
4. Figure out how to create a Sitemap for each of the engines to
get the spiders to come to your site (you still have to manually
submit)
These are all decent methods. However, the problems with 3 of
these methods are many, and here are just a few:
1. Blog and Ping and submission forms are all slow ways to get
listed. Who has that kind of time?
2. Search Engine Submission services can be expensive
3. Using an automated search engine submission service can get
you banned, if the search engines think that you are "spamming"
Of all the methods listed above, both Google and Yahoo prefer that
you create a sitemap and then submit your site to them. You
create a database file that contains information about ALL of your
web pages. You then load that file onto your website and then let
Google know where that file is. Google is extremely specific about
how the database should be submitted, which is in XML format.
By submitting your website in this way, you are cutting down on
their overhead by a huge amount. You see, when you submit the
old-fashioned way, using the standard submission form we talked
about earlier, Google and Yahoo have to convert your information
to the database XML format themselves. As you can imagine, this
takes time, especially with the zillions of webpages that are
submitted daily. So, those sites that are submitted in the manner
and format that Google and Yahoo are already using will get their
pages spidered faster...do you see the logic here? Using this
process, you are enabling them to visit many MORE of your web
pages quickly and easy. This is exactly what Google and Yahoo
want you to do.
By submitting your sitemap in the preferred format, you will
accomplish the following:
1. Save enormous amounts of your valuable time and money.
2. You don't risk getting banned
3. You will get Google and Yahoo to spider the pages of your site
faster.
So, if you want to get your site spidered, and therefore listed,
faster, you must create and submit the sitemap. In theory, the
search engines can list your pages whenever they want. In
reality, until you get them to spider your webpages, you will never
get them listed!
