I recently come across Google's Design and Content Guidelines: - Keep the links on a given page to a reasonable number (fewer than 100). As my site-map normally of only one page. And i have more than 11,000 pages of my site. So, there is a more than 10000 links on site-map page. Can it cause any problem?? Because i have less pages indexed.
Now that google and yahoo have site map submission services you don't really need to have a page on your site listing all the pages on your site. Try splitting the site map into sections and make it more for humans than search engines. I doubt search engines will visit all the 10,000 links from the page anyway wheras if you use their site map submission service they will index all the pages with no trouble.
My site is a yahoo store. So, it is not supporting google's sitemap service. I am doing good in yahoo. But in google i have a problem. Google doesn't has indexed all my web pages.
Let me know your url, all sites can support googles sitemap service. At its simplest you can just submit a text file with all your urls in big list, there are third party tools to create the sitemaps for you as well.
Good point, well spotted! The yahoo link was meant to be to http://submit.search.yahoo.com/free/request
I would want to know that if your page have less contents then google or other SEs will index that pages for long time. Because as i know SEs love unique contents and update and as in this thread Mohit is saying that he have products related website. Then can it possible that SEs will index all pages ? Thanks
I would recommend implementing a segmented sitemap system. Sub-dividing your sitemap links into multiple, category-specific pages. I have used this system successfully on a number of sites and have found that it has helped to get deeper pages indexed. Dynamically building the sitemap pages from the product database (if that is what you have) means that you never need to manually update the sitemap pages and they will always be up to date.
