Sitemaps to guide search engine robots

Site Maps

Site Maps are a standard mechanism allowing your website to tell the search engine(s) about dynamic web pages and enabling each of the versions of that dynamic page (eg. for each product) to have its own entry on the search engine index.

Google, Yahoo and MSN have now agreed to make use of the standard Site Map format and most other search engines are following suit.

The combination of a web application and Site Maps unleashes the full power of web. Your website is no longer constrained by how many pages you can maintain, now each product in your catalogue can have its own web page and with Site Maps you can generate an entry on the search indexes for each of those product pages.

Example Site - Andy Skilton Engineers - each item of plant and each item for sale has its own site map entry.
