We had a great time meeting with webmasters and talking about Sitemaps atPubconin Boston. We value feedback and
suggestions, and appreciate ourGoogle Groupposters. But it's great to be able to talk to webmasters in person too. For those of you who
couldn't be there for in-person conversation, here's a recap of the top three questions we were
asked.
What's the best way to go about changing domain names?
We've done two blog posts about this that you might find helpful:
Do you have any advice for using a robots.txt file?
We havelots of advice! And if you are
thinking of creating a robots.txt file for your site or modifying your existing one, be sure to
check out theSitemaps robots.txt analysis toolso you can test how Googlebot will see your file.
Can you look at my site and tell me how to get better ranking and indexing?
I sat in on theOrganic Site Reviewspanel, where the panelists were giving out lots of great advice about this. Check out myguest postin Matt Cutts' blog for the highlights.
Thanks to everyone who came up to say hello. And thanks for all the great questions and feedback.
