Free Website Traffic - Part 3 - Your Sitemap

So you are serious about getting your site listed on the 1st page of Google?

If you have read the previous couple of posts you now have more knowledge about Search Engine Optimisation than your competitors do. Read on to find out how to help Google to recognise all of the pages on your website.

This simple strategy not only helps Google but it can be a useful tool for your visitors to get access to your pages quickly.

Get yourself a Site Map - To help Google reach all of the pages on your site you need a site map, which is basically a page with links to all of your other pages. If you put a link on your home page to your site map this will make it easy for Google's software to find all of the pages on your site.
If you are unsure about how to create a site map simply create a new page called Site Map and put a link on your home page linking to your new Site Map page. Then, go to your Site Map page and put links on that page linking to all of the other pages on your site. Now, when Google's software comes to your site it will click all of the links on your home page including the link to your site map page. Google's software will then click all of the links on the site map page, so after 2 clicks it will know about all of your pages on your site.

If you have implemented the strategies in the previous articles in this set and you now combine that with a Site Map page, your site is well on its way to the 1st page of Google.

I often hear people say you need at least 10 pages on a website for Google to even think about listing it. This in nonsense, I have a one-page website on the 1st page of Google for my chosen keyword.
