+According to [Google Webmaster tools](https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/), my site isn't indexed for weeks at a time. Since I [blog](http://webconverger.org/blog/) every couple of days, that doesn't work. Yes I do have pingurl configured which [Google reader](http://reader.google.com/) does pick up quickly, but **not** the general search results from Google.
+
+There is a [sitemap XML standard](http://www.sitemaps.org/protocol.php) that ikiwiki needs to generate for.
+
+Update: I've since discovered under [Google Webmaster tools 'Subscriber stats'](https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/subscriberstats), you can tell Google to treat a feed as a sitemap. Therefore in many cases just submitting your [[ikiwiki/blog/]]'s feed will be enough for Google to start better indexing your ikiwiki site.
