Google released Google Sitemaps ,a service to allow Webmasters to automatically submit their own pages for indexing into Google's search engine. After a developer submits their site, Google Sitemaps automatically generates an XML-formatted site map, containing "a list of the URLs that the site owner wants Google to crawl, and then hosts the file on their servers and tells Google where to find it."

Google calls it "a beta 'ecosystem' that may help webmasters with two current challenges: keeping Google informed about all of your new web pages or updates, and increasing the coverage of your web pages in the Google index". It is a free online service for Webmasters. The Google Sitemaps does not influence the rankings of the website. It helps Google to determine the existence of the web pages. Google says that by using Sitemaps to inform and direct their crawlers, they will expand their coverage of the web and improve the time to inclusion in their index. Google Sitemaps invites webmasters to feed site data directly to Google through an XML sitemap page.
