(ModernSciFi.com and ModernSciFi.com/store) The site mapper found over 10,000 pages and broke mid way to indexing. ( And it was set to scan for html pages only) Even if and when I do get a good index file, I imagine that 10,000+ URL links are too many to send to Google, right? What is the max that I should send in one file? And does link placement on the index list indicate to Google what I think is most important? Do I want to bring my most important links to the top of the list? And finally, Do we only send a list once to get a process started, or do we resend lists with certain frequencies? Thank you for your response.
