Dec 2005 引用: vBSEO Google/Yahoo Sitemap Generator for vBulletin 3.5.x (Plugin) & vBulletin 3.0.x 引用: Overview============================ Note: This plugin is fully vBSEO 2.2.0 compliant. If you are running vBSEO, please upgrade to vBSEO 2.2.0 or greater before installing. A Google sitemap is basically one or more XML formatted files containing a list of your forum URLs - along with indicators such as priority and frequency for each URL Priority indicates how important the page is relative to your other pages, while frequency indicates how often the page is expected to change its content. The site map is retrieved from the root level of your website by Google (and by Yahoo for the text formatted version). By transmitting your sitemap directly to Google, you enable GoogleBot to crawl your website more effectively and efficiently. You automatically inform Google of all of the pages you want crawled as well as which pages are more important (higher priority) and which should be crawled more often (higher frequency). For more information on Google Sitemaps: https://www.google.com/webmasters/si.../en/about.html Yahoo also supports a basic text sitemap format with one URL per line. The Yahoo sitemap must be manually submitted to: http://submit.search.yahoo.com/free/request/ Note: Google and Yahoo sitemaps are particularly important for sites with dynamic URLs containing query string and/or session ID information. Search engines are known to more effectively crawl static URLs. More of your forum pages indexed generally leads to more website visitors allowing you to grow your forum and generate increased revenues from affiliate programs and/or ad sales such as the Google Adsense program. Providing Google and Yahoo sitemaps is an essential step towards improving your forums. The "vBSEO Google/Yahoo Sitemap Generator" plugin provides a solution that allows your forum to be indexed faster, more completely, more effectively, and with less bandwidth consumption.

The Yahoo sitemap must be manually submitted to http://submit.search.yahoo.com/free/request/.
