Make your site Search Engine Friendly
2005 June 28
I’ve got several sites online at the moment ranging from firstpartners.net and the red-piranha enterprise search tool , not forgetting this blog.
A common theme with all of these is the ability to get search engines (like google) to index them. After all ,what is the point of maintaining websites if the content goes unread. How do you notify the search engine of your brand new content? Google site maps are one way – an xml document that you submit with all the relevant details. Included is a tool to generate the sitemaps , written in Python. Still playing with it , but it appears that (a) the format is easy to generate and / or (b) the script will run in Jython (java+python).
