As you may recall from previous posts, Google Sitemaps and Google Mobile Sitemaps are quick and easy ways for you to submit all your pages to the Google index and help improve your visibility on Google. But did you know that now with Google Sitemaps you can see which Google search queries are driving traffic to your website and what your PageRank distribution is for all your pages in Google? And, to help you make your site more bot-friendly, Sitemaps also shows you which pages returned errors (and which specific errors were returned) when the Googlebot tried to crawl them.
The best part? You don't even have to submit a sitemap to get all these stats - just create a Sitemaps account and add your site to it. Once you verify ownership of the site we'll show you these stats so that while you're working on creating your sitemap, you can already start getting valuable feedback on your Google traffic and crawl status.
