PhotoBiz is introducing a wonderful new refinement to all the Blog and Store Site templates. When you log into the control panel and click on “Site Layout” you will see a familiar icon representing a new top level menu item called “Search Engines”. On this page you will find a link to your sitemap, the date it was last published, and a button to publish your sitemap (which should be done each time major updates are made to the website).

The Search Engines page can help a lot with Search Engine Optimization (SEO), in that it provides the ability to submit a sitemap link to Google Webmaster Tools in advance of its web spiders finding your website on their own. In addition, the “Visit Counter” (originally located under Settings) has moved to the “Search Engine” page of the control panel, in an effort to keep all SEO information grouped together.

It’s one more way we are “Passionately Supporting” your SEO efforts!
