I went to check something on Google that I know I had blogged about and was not happy when I discovered that I wasn’t appearing in Google results anymore. The annoying thing was that my posts were coming in as Technorati results or on a scummy searchengine spammer that had grabbed my content into their system.
I checked Google’s Webmaster tools and found out that my sitemap was woefully out of date so I downloaded the Google XML sitemap plugin by Arne Brachhold and also added the All in one SEO pack plugin for WordPress too.
After installing these two plugins, creating the new sitemap I then told Google where to go find my sitemap. Hopefully this should start getting my results back into Google again.
