3) Sitemaps Updates
- Sitemaps helps search engines to find new and changed content faster. Using Sitemaps doesn't guarantee that your site will be crawled and indexed completely, but it certainly helps us understand your website better
- Google now support to 50,000 child Sitemaps for Sitemap index files (instead of the previous 1,000) - Now this is great feature from Google!!
- Multiple owner verification facility in Sitemap
- Time has been greatly reduced with the average time from submitting a Sitemap file to processing it and showing some initial data in Webmaster Tools
- Why is there difference in Google index and sitemap index results?? We get different results in google search when we put [site:example.com] and the indexed pages in SITEMAP webmasters tools are different. Actually the site operator, on the other hand, takes into account whatever Google has crawled, which may include URLs not included in your Sitemap, such as newly added URLs or other URLs discovered via links. Your Sitemap report only show the URLs that you've submitted in your Sitemap file.
- a rough estimate of how many pages have been indexed
- one indication of if your site has been hacked
- if you have duplicate titles or snippets
