Mid last November 2007, the seeker's three biggest machines, Google, Yahoo and Microsoft agreed to use protocol sitemap 0,9.
Protocol sitemap this was a new standard to make sitemap in order to be able to be read by all search engine.
Sitemap was the XML data simple that contained the URL list from a site, that his contents:
- The frequency of the change site
- Important not him a page compared to the other page in site
- The frequency and time update
Sitemap this had a purpose so that search engine more will know the contents from a site.
Webcrawler usually looks for the page with saw link in a page in this site or in the other site.
In addition sitemap will make search engine (that support protocol sitemap) knew all the available page in our site.
Never the less did not guarantee that your page must enter inside search engine, only protocol sitemap this certainly more will facilitate search engine to know the structure of the available page in your site.
Possibly was not mistakenly if we also prepared this from now.
[Update] Google and Yahoo have had URL to update sitemap, MSN still has not him:
- https://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps/
- https://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/
