Automatically inform Google of new Wordpress posts
I’ve already heard of the Google Sitemaps project a few weeks ago. With Google Sitemaps, you can give Google a sitemap of your website, so that the crawler knows which pages to crawl. It was not very important for me, because all my pages where indexed.
Then I came across this:
Google Sitemap Generator for Wordpress
And suddenly it hit me: You can let Google immediately know, when there are new pages to crawl. With this little plugin, Google gets automatically informed when you write something new. What could be better?
I installed it and it works perfectly. Now I’ll have so see how fast Google crawls new content.

The number of indexed pages of the Jobazaar blog, for example, is still the same. It has to do with the PageRank, I think.
I’ve posted an entry at german fan-site FCB-Blog.de and I want to see how long it takes for Google to have that article indexed.

Update: It took 3 days to have the new article showing up in Google… would it have taken longer without sitemap?

New pages of my homepage are being index within 2 to 3 days. I dont see a huge improve. The last recent page was found through google after 2 days.
