Creating A Site Map For Your Website

Several people ask themselves what is the site map?  The site map is a HTML page that is separate from your other information on your website.  Site maps act as the directory to your pages website.  The pages that are listed on the site map are hyperlinked. 

You will want to be sure and use the keywords within your link anchor text.  Considering synonyms people would use instead of the keywords that you might have chosen such as bowls for dishes.  Another tip to keep in mind is that most search engines tend to lean more to text that has numbered list or bulleted, so consider putting links in your lists.

Site maps are a great way to get search engine spiders to crawl throughout your website!
