Search Engine Optimization (SEO). This has a lot to do with how people find your website. Google, MSN, Yahoo and others are search engines. People type in keywords to help find what they are looking for. The search engines help them find what they are looking for.
The dictionary says that optimum is "most favorable", so when you are thinking about search engines you want your website to have the "most favorable" place on the search engine. That spot is at the top of the first page on a lot of those keywords that more people are looking for.
Now the challenge is to get to those spots on a lot of the main keywords. Now to help you get to those spots, this one thing might not be well known - it is Google sitemaps. What are Google sitemaps? Sitemaps are like an outline detailing every link and every page of your website. Sitemaps use XML (XML is a language like HTML, but simpler to execute.) By submitting your website's sitemap to Google, Google promises that it's spiders will come to your website and it can crawl through every nook and cranny of your website with more efficiency. This makes it more likely that your website is indexed and getting clicks for every relevant query.
Some benefits of Google sitemaps are:
* You alert Google of any changes to your website with no pinging for search engines anymore.
* You can get more efficient categorizing of your website.
* Your website has a greater chance of getting found more in search engines.
* Sitemaps will soon replace other ways of submitting your website.
* At this time it is free to use Google sitemaps.
* If you change your website, just submit an update to Google.
