    Biz thread (SEO) [NO PICS!]

    Does Yahoo care about sitemaps? What about MSN, do they even have a sitemap feature?

    All SEs care about sitemaps, but its rather the general structure of your site that is important and not the sitemap itself. Nowadays sitemaps rather tends to be spammy...

      not certain.. but i think it depends on how complicated your site is put together. The sitemap makes sure the spiders get every single page not just highly linked ones.

      im a lazy bastard though and use Free Find. Their spider pretty much searches and writes up your sitemap.

      hope this helps, good luck

        That's true, but it does organize your site for the spider to do its job more effectively.

            Google defined it - they require an XML file I **think**

            The Yahoo sitemap is a straight text file.

            MSN - none that I know of yet - im looking into it now as it happens as Ive got some sites that aint getting crawled past level 2 pages.

                      You will surely face a duplicate content penalty --

                            Sitemap has double purpose. First one is to help site visitor find easily what they are looking for in a particular website. The second one for search engines to crawl all pages of your website easily specially those 3 clicks and more away from the index page.
