Well, I have just been pottering with my own website and was frustrated because my wordpress google sitemap file wasn’t working properly with my blog, as were are a few other things, but that’s another story… Anyway I discovered this fantastic video from Andre Chaperon from Super Affiliate Marketing without the blah blah that shows people how to get Google to notice you straight away using google’s sitemap generator for Wordpress.   You don’t have to have wordpress to create a sitemap.  You can find a free google sitemap generator , create the sitemap and then upload it to your main directory using ftp (if you don’t have an ftp programme, I usually recommend Core ftp for a good solid free ftp software).  Then following the very clear instructions set out by Andre you can let Google know that you have done it and then just wait for the bots to visit.
