February 17th, 2007 - Article on Sitemap Best Practices
I recently had an article published by BizTech magazine on website site maps. A pragmatic view of a website’s content structure, the site map has long served as the last ditch method for the information-seeker. These days, the site map has taken on the added responsibility of ensuring search engine spiders reach all of the pages in a website.
It was a fun assignment to explore some best practices for site maps, and to look at some innovative uses of dynamic site maps. One slight refinement to the article is worth noting. Of the two Stephen Hawking site maps mentioned, only one is used on the scientist’s website. The other was submitted for use on that site, but was never adopted and is available at the site map creator’s website.
