The Site Map is a too often overlooked piece of the Search engine Optimization Puzzle. Here is a Simple Step 7 step approach to create a Super Charged Site Digest on Steroids that will get your web pages indexed faster and more often.
Step 1 Use Pseudo Directory Naming Convention
A Recent Article ('See How Using a Pseudo Directory Can Increase your Page Ranking and Organize your Web Site') discussed how you could increase your Page Rank scores by using a Pseudo Directory. (http://ewguru.com/pseudo-directory).
Briefly keep all your web pages in one Directory but append a Prefix to the name so you could organize your pages like a Directory structure and still get the Page Rank Boost for having all your pages nearer the root.
As an Example For a Web Site about Pillows may have
'Buck' as Prefix for Buckwheat Pillows
'Fea' as a Prefix for a Feather Pillow
'Poly' as a prefix for Polyester Pillows.
Buck-QueenSize.html
Fea-QueenSize.html
Poly-Queensize.html
Step 2 Keep Your Pseudo-Directories Small and Manageable.
An Efficient way to use this method is to find and republish 10 to 20 articles at the same time with the same topic. All articles on the advantages of Buck Wheat Pillows would be named:
buck-article1.html
buck-article2.html
buck-article3.html
....
buc k-article10.html
After 10 to 20 Articles are Published to the Web-Site a Table of contents is created as per step 3. A few days later more articles about Buck Wheat Pillows are added and are assigned a Prefix 'buck2'. All these new pages are now named:
buck2-article1.html
buck2-article2.html
buck2-article3.html
....
buck2-article10.html
Similarly next time Articles about Buckwheat Pillows are collected 'Buck3' would be used as a Prefix.
The Main advantages of this method are:
Lots of Small manageable Pseudo-Directories Each with their own Table of Contents.
Your Site-Digest in Step 4 is always Fresh and Changing changing.
Step 3 Create a Table of Contents for each Pseudo Directory
So Lets say under Buckwheat you have the Following Pages
Buck-QueenSize.html
Buck-TravelSize.html
Buck-NeckPillow.html
Buck-isBe tter.html
Buck-releivespain.html
Step 4 Create a Site-Digest with all your Products
Create a File and name it Site-Digest.html and list the Buck, Poly and Feather Table of Contents Files. Of course this Site-Digest File would also contain your Mattress Table of Contents and Towel Table of contents and anything else you may sell.
A Sample Site Digest may look like this
Buck Wheat Pillows Table of Contents
Feather Pillows Table of Contents
Polyester Pillows Table of Contents
Mattress Table of Contents
....
Bath Shop Table of Contents
Step 5 The Google Sitemap File
You would now create a Google Sitemap file. Be sure and tell google that your Site-Digest File Changes often. This way google will grab this page and Index your site (http://www.ewguru.com/hbiz/googlesitemap.html a>)
Step 6 Step Keep Your Site-Digest Current
Every time you create a new pseudo-directory and Table of contents for that pseudo-directory simply add it to your Site-Digest. Now when Google grabs your Site-Digest it will Spider all your new Table of Contents and Magically Index your new pages.
Step 7 Super Charge your Site- Digest
If you would like to Super Charge your Site-Digest Name your Hyperlinks with descriptive Keywords. Add A Summary about each item in your Site-Digest
Buck Wheat Pillows Table of Contents - Description
Buck Wheat Pillows Table of Contents - Link
Feather Pillows Table of Contents - Description
Feather Pillows Table of Contents - Link
Polyester Pillows Table of Contents - Description
Polyester Pillows Table of Contents - Link
Mattress Table of Contents - Description
Mattress Table of Contents - Link
....
Bath Shop Table of Contents - Description
Bath Shop Table of Contents - Link
By Following the above simple steps and creating a Super Charged Site-Digest you will make it easier for Google to index your current and all of your new Web Pages.
