About Google Sitemaps
|
Google Sitemaps are completely different than a regular sitemap, which is part of your website and is there to help ease your visitor's site navigation. A Google Sitemap is an XML document file submitted to Google and stored in the public_html folder of your site. It's a very simple way to increase your Google ranking. Anyone can make and implement their own Google Sitemap by using Google's Webmaster tools and accessing their cPanel. In order to successfully submit a Sitemap, you first have to sign up for Google Webmaster Service and verify your ownership of the site using one of a few different methods Google provides. For those with tech experience this can be an easy process but it can also be intimidating or confusing to many, so we offer this one-time service for $60. Any site hosted on the ANA server is eligible for this service. If you host your site elsewhere, please check with us to see if your site is eligible. Please note that in order to implement the Sitemap, we require one-time access to your cPanel. If you want to implement it yourself, we'll send you the file. Should you have trouble anywhere along the way, submit a Support Ticket and our Support Team will do our best assist you. Order your Google Sitemap now!
