Site-Digest 7 Simple Steps To Place Your Site Map On Steroids

April 09th 2008 Posted to The Search Engine Optimization Way

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.

Files would now be named:

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

….

buck-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

A Table of Contents is Now Created for ‘Buck2′

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-isBetter.html

Buck-releivespain.html

Create a Table of contents for your Buckwheat Pillows
Listing only your Buckwheat Files and Call it
‘Buck-Table-of-Contents.Html’. Similarly you would
have a Table of contents for your Polyester and Feather
Pillows.

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)

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

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.
