Google, Yahoo & MSN Now Support Same Sitemaps Standard
16th Nov 2006, 23:23 GMT
Breaking news today that Google, Yahoo and MSN have agreed to a single standard for XML sitemaps, according to Search Engine Watch. As part of the announcement, the existing sitemaps protocol from Google gets a version upgrade to Sitemaps 0.9. However, no actual changes to the system have taken place…Anyone already using Google Sitemaps needn’t do anything different. The only change is now those sitemaps will be read by Microsoft and Yahoo, as well. Let’s hope this is a start of a new trend by the top 3 to work together. TechCrunch has more and you can view a new web site dedicated to the new Sitemaps. Pilgrim Partners : Handy Recovery Recover files & partitions accidentally deleted on Windows XP/2000
