Deep indexing and URL submission

    I purchased a domain name for a former movie poster site and created several categories of posters with multiple links on each page. The site was already in Yahoo's directory and MSN's index and msnbot found the new category links. Problem is - that was about 3 weeks ago and MSN has not gone deeper into the individual links on each page.:confused: (MSN hits the general categories and comes in from 404 expired links).

    Should I submit the URL of one or more of the deep links? The MSN submission page just indicates that the homepage should be submitted. Thanks,

    Max

    You shouldn't submit deep links. Work on getting back links to the deeper pages. this will direct MSN to spider them

    MSN is only good for 100/1000-page sites. If you go further 2 links deep, it doesn't work well.

    Thanks for the advice! Link building for affiliate sites seems to be challenging, but I will keep plugging away!

    I've recently started rotating a few inner links in the footer of my site and it seems to do the trick with MSN then indexing the links on those pages too.

    I've just expanded it to have 5 inner links and on each of these pages they have another 90 internal links.

    Hi Ash,

    I think its always a good idea to make inner pages as accessible as possible. By providing as many deep links as possible really does open the site up, especially if you have a large site.

    Cheers,

    Dave

    Hi Dave

    Small world this webmastering lark!

    It seems to do the trick with MSN, the only problem is i've got 120 of these 'inner page sitemaps' and can only squeeze 4 in the footer at once!

    Yeah, small world Ash!

    Seen quite a few familiar faces around here.

    I know what you mean about the number of sitemaps, I've got quite a few myself.

    I never thought about rotating/randomizing inner page links on my homepage/pages. That sounds like a very good idea.

    About these "inner page sitemaps" that you mentioned ... did you manually create 120 maps, each containing a subset of your entire site? Or are you using a script to dynamically serve these up?

    Thanks.

    Add a popular posts category, to link to your posts.

    You can also add Last month's posts

    Another way around the deep indexing debate is to take a left field approach and link your blog/website to a Squidoo lens. I know for a fact that Google automatically deep indexes Squidoo lenses.

    I provide a discussion of this and proof here:
    http://affiliate-marketing-coach.blogspot.com/2007/11/seo-visibility-deep-indexing-for.html

    On my Squidoo lens, I talk about the Squidoo-Google Dance as a strategy for getting multiple listings on Page 1 of Google:

    You could also submitt a site map to msn webmaster tools :) http://webmaster.live.com/
    They have site maps now and that should help.

    Other ways to add a sitemap:
    Sitemap ping service. Notify the Live Search crawler if you change an existing sitemap, or add a new one. Use this web address format:
    http://webmaster.live.com/ping.aspx?siteMap=[Your sitemap web address]
    You can also submit a sitemap directly.
