SEO Buzz Blog

Recently, I added Google Sitemaps to my web developer blog. There’s a nice plugin for Wordpress that will automate the sitemap creation for you. Then all you have to do is register your domain with your Google Sitemaps account, and create a file that validates you own the domain on your server - ie: google_0234080jljsdf.html, and their bot will visit it immediately.

Once nice thing is that you can instantly get indexed, control how often your pages are updated, and you also get some nice statistics about phrases used to search for your site. Saves having to dig through your access.log looking for Google referals.
