Google XML Sitemap Plug-in for your WordPress site

March 22, 2007

If you are lucky enough to be running your site on WordPress as I currently do then you’ve got to love the plug-ins that independent developers keep building. Arne Brachhold develops one such plug-ins for WordPress that really rocks. It’s called the Google Sitemap Generator for WordPress v.2 Plug-in (even though in recent years MSN and Yahoo have accepted sitemap.xml as a standard format). It’s really dirt easy to install if you’ve ever installed a WordPress Plug-in you’ll know what I mean.

In the configuration of this plug-in steps are taken to ensure that novices as well as pros can gain a quick understanding of what they are installing and how it works. If you are developing your site over the long run than having a visible (HTML/XHTML) as well as an invisible (XML) sitemap is a great idea for search engines learning to love your site and offering your customers / viewers a better way to access information.
