Thanks for stopping by. What can you expect to discover today, then? 

I’ll be talking about how to submit your sitemaps in Google Search Console. 

This is as simple as follows:

  • Hit Crawl button
  • Click Sitemaps
  • Add/test a sitemap
  • Enter sitemap URL
  • Click Sitemap

Learn how it takes up to one month to reap the benefits of submitting your sitemap. Learn, too, how simply submitting your sitemap can help drive impressions and clicks.

I’ll then walk you through what NOT to do when you’re submitting a sitemap.

Find out why you should avoid the following:

  • Do not include bad status codes
  • Avoid 300 errors / 400 errors
  • No redirect chains, no bad URLs in your sitemap: use final destination URLs only

Once I’ve talked about best practice and what to avoid, I’ll walk you through submitting a sitemap the easy way…

Discover how a tool like Screaming Frog can generate sitemaps at the click of a button with no errors.

I’ll even be throwing in some simple tips like creating an HTML directory so users can seamlessly navigate your site and the benefit of removing no-index tags.

Do yourself a favor by submitting an accurate sitemap so your best pages are prioritized.
