    Hey,

    I am creating a sitemap and was wondering how much of a good idea it is to include my forums in the sitemap?

    It will take a long time to include it but if it is the best idea then that is what I will go with.

    A sitemap is always good no matter the content. I build a sitemap for a one page website just like I do for a 1000 pages.

    indeed it will be great. but if your forums requires logging in - there is no use giving it. for this you will have to give access to the google bot in the forums using robots.txt.

    of course , it's a good idea.

    you will give the list of your web pages to googlebot
