Online, May 24, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Link-Assistant.Com, the SEO software development company behind SEO PowerSuite, announced today that its on page optimization SEO tool, WebSite Auditor, was updated to generate XML sitemaps. Upon choosing particular web pages, setting up last modified dates, the desired priority and frequency of crawling, users create XML sitemaps to instruct search engines on better indexing their websites - which in its turn helps the websites rank higher in search results.

SEO and sitemaps

Search engine optimization (abbreviated as SEO) is a variety of online activities aimed at getting a website to the top of search results.

Web pages get to the search results only after being indexed, and one of the tasks of an SEO expert is to make sure it is easy for the search engine to find all the content meant to be exposed. One of the ways to do the job is to create an XML sitemap.

XML sitemap is a standard file with a list of all web pages a webmaster wants to appear in search results. Having an XML sitemap ensures that all web pages get quickly indexed and ranked by major search engines.
