Ok, there are 1 or 2 threads but never a conclusion reached. i have aforum which has about 20,000 posts i have not yet submitted a sitemap to google but i am still ranked page 1 for my keywords, my question is this, if i generate a sitemap with al my 20000 urls and submit it to google and then after a week there are 1000 extra threads, will i be penalized by google for not having a uptodate sitemap. i am hangin on the balance on this one. i dont know if this move will push me higher in the serps or will it have a negative effect for not being upto date. this sucks bigtime. what to do? can i submit a mini-sitemap to google with everything except the forums? or will this harm the forums?
