    Sitemap problem

    I'm having an issues with site map
    My top 10 urls in the map are

    <url>

    <loc>
    http://www.site.com/forums/forum-name/index4.html
    </loc>
    <priority>0.8536</priority>
    <lastmod>2010-03-10T06:12:23+00:00</lastmod>
    <changefreq>daily</changefreq>
    </url>

    And goes index1 index2 etc
    And each link just goes to that forum so just looks like duplicate links?

    Hi,

    each of the index1,2,3 should be your pagination links, so http://www.site.com/forums/forum-name/ would be for the main page then http://www.site.com/forums/forum-name/index2.html = page 2 http://www.site.com/forums/forum-name/index14.html = page 14 etc.

    This is not duplicate as each page will have different threads on it.

    Oh okay. I should have noticed that. My concern is, after I turned off show threads (or whatever my last problem was), I only have one URL indexed in my sitemap. Before I did it, I had several thousand, and that was after one day. It's been 2-3 days now with just one URL indexed.

    "after I turned off show threads"

    Can you be more specific about what you did there?

    OK, old urls... yes, those should be turned off.

    This makes sense.

    You are submitting
    /nice-urls/
    but google still has your showthread.php?t=123 style urls from vb in their index.

    This will eventually pick up from the 301's. Just hang tight. it doesn't happen overnight.
