Simple Hack: Create SiteMap for your Blog (New Blogger)

11 June 2007 2 Comments

Creating a site map for your blog is very essential. Do you know, why?
1) Because, the search engines like MSN, Yahoo and Google will index your blog easily (not a guarantee, but it will make the job easier for them!).

2) And most importantly, for your readers, you can provide a list of blog posts (table of contents) that you have written so far.

Google itself has an elaborate procedure for generating sitemaps but you need to do lot of work.

What do you need?
Firefox browser, Greasemonkey extension installed on top of it and Install Sitemap Generator for Blogger script.

Step 1:
Log in to Blogger –> Dashboard –> Manage Posts – to get a list of posts.

Now, when you have installed the Sitemap Generator GM extension (restart the Firefox browser after the install), you should be able to see a “Generate Sitemap” link down below the list of posts.

Click to generate and save as an .xml file.

Step 2:
Login to Google Pages with your Google account and upload the xml file.

Step 3:
Login to Google Sitemaps and upload your xml sitemap. That’s it.

Alternatively, you can generate an A to Z table of contents for all your blog posts (that can be published as a post) using a procedure that I wrote earlier.
