Sitemaps for big sites

Sitemaps for big sites

One of my directory sites is getting close to having 50,000 listings in it and each listing has its own unique page. To enable the search engine spiders to reach the individual pages better I have set up links to every single page, bur because there are so many pages, I have had to create numerous different pages to do this.

I know the search engines say to keep the number of links on a page down to about 100, but had I done this, it would have meant creating 500 pages. Instead of doing this, I decided to create 100 pages with 500 links on each page

It’s not an ideal way of doing things, but with big sites like this I find multiple sitemaps is the best way of doing things.
