Site map, why it needed, site map generator and how to add sitemap to Google

Site map and its importance:-

Site map is the way to inform search engineers like Google,Bing and Yahoo for webpages and sites available for crawling.This all is done through webmaster.
Site map is a part of SEO, search engine optimization, if you don't know about SEO please see this post about SEO click me.
Main function of webmaster is to send your webpages to search engine which it associated from. Every search engine has its own webmaster which submit pages to search engines.
Now what search engines do? They send crawler to these submitted web pages and take content like cache of processor which takes all data related to some program and when user wants these program to access, processor takes already taken program in cache. This reduce time form searching through out hard drive.
This example is to understand what search engines do.
Basically site map is an XML file this contain all information of your site's URL.
Web crawlers usually discover pages through URL. Site maps are therefore used to send all links of your site for making search engines to pick up your site in their data base.
In simple words all search engine totally rely on bots and crawlers to discover new pages created around the world.

Google says

Sitemaps are particularly helpful if:

• Your site has pages that aren’t easily discovered by Googlebot during the crawl process – for example, pages featuring rich AJAX or Flash.
• Your site is new and has few links to it. (Googlebot crawls the web by following links from one page to another, so if your site isn’t well linked, it may be hard for us to discover it.)
• Your site has a large archive of content pages that are not well linked to each other, or are not linked at all.

  

But there is another case, some people says adding crawlers may reduce their traffic rate this is because google has no need to crawl the site completely to fine its internal pages.
Site map is an index page, which sum up all the content of pages with in google site.In order to make your website visible in the search engine, according to my point of view you have to submit your site map to any of search engine.
