vBSEO Google/Yahoo Sitemap Generator Details »» | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
vBSEO Search Engine XML Sitemap 3.0 We are extremely pleased to inform the vBulletin.org community that a fully revamped version of the vBSEO Search Engine XML Sitemap (previously "vBSEO Google/Yahoo Sitemap Generator") v.3.0, is being released to all licensed vBulletin users effective immediately! Note: The NEW vBSEO Search Engine XML Sitemap 3.0 replaces all previous versions of the "vBSEO Google/Yahoo Sitemap Generator", and includes support for all the new URL types in vBulletin 4.x. New in the vBSEO Search Engine XML Sitemap v.3.0 The new sitemap alters the way data is structured in fundamental ways. Sitemap 3.0 segments different content areas into separate files, so you end up with a unique set of files per content type: forums, blogs, cms, groups, albums, members, tags, etc. In addition, the new sitemap has an extended priority feature that utilizes the built in 'weight' tool of the vBulletin XML sitemap generator for individual forums, CMS sections and articles to act as a multiplier. We believe these changes are responsible for delivering increased returns for a number of forums from customers and testers we've been tracking. Please track your own progress via your Google Webmaster tools account, Google Analytics or Gravity Insights. A Clean and Beautiful Interface The new sitemap also features a clean and beautiful interface, built from the ground up. We believe it reflects the quality, precision and attention to detail placed into each aspect of this release. We are passionate about building software, and great software is beautiful inside, and out.

Wait, there's already something that does that, it's ... wait for it ... vBSEO. Sorry, wasn't really picking fun, just had a sarcastic moment there. Seriously though, to do what you are asking to do you would need vBSEO installed and running. To my knowledge the other SEO mods are not compatible with this mod as the sitemaps will be generated with your .php settings (vBSEO not installed) or your vBSEO settings only. |

Since recent Google acts have resulted in my site dropping from 1200 indexed pages to 300, and a lot of important content pages were missing (pretty much only tag pages were in the index now), I gave in and tried this mod again.
Previously I was disappointed that there were no hooks or anything for me to modify URLs. I have some custom mods that use forum and thread tables, but have non-showthread URLs. Because of this, last time we just made our own sitemap manually, so it included only the most important pages. This time around I spent about 3 hours doing file edits and making this work with Project Tools, which also accounts for a large portion of our site. I guess I'll see if it works for us. The first generated sitemap has about 5000 URLs. I suspect we lost a bunch of indexed pages recently because it's possible Google sandboxed us -- we released a product with a copyright link, so suddenly 980,000 links to the product page appeared on the web within 1 or 2 days -- which was way more linkbacks than we had to all other pages combined. |

Once I figured out how to write my own addons for this, I was quite pleased with the results.
I had some mods like VaultWiki and CES Site News which use customized forumdisplay and showthread URLs. Using global_setup_complete to update the "exclude forums" option, I was able to save those forums until the addons ran, so resources weren't wasted and 2 versions of their links weren't added. Also, I had to write an addon for Project Tools, because apparently there wasn't one. Depending how many people actually need that, I may contribute it, but it currently has my custom URL format (/projects/id/, /issues/id/, /milestones/id/) hardcoded. |

What are the steps to take if you're consistently getting a "FAILED" on one of the search engines?
