Improve searchability with Google Webmaster Tools and XML Sitemap #26

Open vamaraju opened 9 years ago

vamaraju commented 9 years ago

It would be nice to have the site indexed by Google. You have to use Google Webmaster Tools and possibly create an XML sitemap:

https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/dashboard https://www.xml-sitemaps.com/

As far as I know, only a website administrator can do this. You'll have to prove to Google that you have control over the site.

Yes. To my understanding it's sort of a slow chug up the search results. It makes it a bit little less trivial to make a site map for a very AJAX heavy site (inherently this way because of Angular), but it seems to be possible according to this blog: http://www.yearofmoo.com/2012/11/angularjs-and-seo.html

Another possibly useful link: https://developers.google.com/webmasters/ajax-crawling/

I will look into this.
