Another set of Google tools you might want to take advantage of are located on the Google Webmaster Central site. This site features information, FAQ’s and blogs, straight from the Google team, on how to improve your site with respect to Google.
One tool to note is Google Sitemaps (located in the Webmaster tools section). Basically, with Google Sitemaps you can submit a specially formatted XML file to Google with contains information on all your site’s pages in order to make it easier for their crawler to find your pages. While there is documentation made available, if you have a large site, you might want to take advantage of the Sitemap Generator Tool in order to create a sitemap file for you.
While Google may not be the “be-all” of search engines, there is little dispute it is the most popular, so making your site tweaked in favor or Google isn’t a bad idea.
