Sitemaps for Blog or Website


Sitemap Definition:

Sitemap is a XML file which contains URLs of a website along with metadata of each URL. This metadata includes information like when it was last updated, how often it usually changes, and how important it is, relative to other URLs in the site. Sitemap files are kept on the top directory of your website

Here I used atom.xml because Blogger platform provide this sitemap by default. For website owner, this will be replaced with sitemap.xml and they have to manually keep this file on their website in order to let search engine process it.

Sitemap Usage:

Sitemap is an easy way to inform search engines about pages available for crawling/indexing. The crawlers( search engines ) use this file to get inlinks( The links coming to your website) and outlinks( The links going to other website).

Sitemap Tips:

1:-To increase web traffic, it is suggested that you submit sitemap to search engines like Google, Yahoo, MSN and ASk.com

2:-Submit sitemap to open directories to increase your web traffic.

3:-For Blogger users, there is no need to create sitemap files as Blogger provide it, you can use either http://xxx.blogspot.com/atom.xml or http://xxx.blogspot.com/rss.xml
