Add a sitemap #19

Closed samking closed 11 years ago

samking commented 12 years ago

Search engines like having a sitemap. Thankfully, there are Drupal modules that exist to do this:

http://drupal.org/project/xmlsitemap

We should try installing the module, check through the generated XML to make sure that there aren't any pages in the sitemap that we don't want to be public, and we should also make sure that it's hierarchically organized similar to the hierarchy in issue #1 (https://github.com/samking/Code-the-Change/issues/1).

Prioritizing this after SSL by default since we would like search engines to like us.

Sounds good -- we should also try submitting it manually to Google and Bing (we don't rank well on Bing even when searching for [Code the Change]).

OK. Would you or Andrew mind submitting it to Google? I feel awkward doing anything that might be interpreted as SEO since I'm working there this summer and SEO work is strictly prohibited (I'm sure it's fine, just being extra careful to separate Google work and CtC work).
