How to submit your site to Google, Yahoo, Microsoft, and Ask!

April 12th, 2007

More big news today on getting your site listed in all the major search engines!

Finally, they are now all working together not only to accept feeds, but creating a uniform way to do so.

This is great.  Simply create a line in your robots.txt file that identifies the location of your sitemap.  Like this…

Sitemap:  http://www.TheJungleMap.com/sitemap.xml

and they will find your sitemap and crawl it.  They will accept xml format as well as RSS 2.0 and Atom.  This is very exciting.
