So something I have actually been doing for the last decade or so is creating properties at usa business email list a directory level to get that same amount of information, but to a specific directory. Some good stuff that I have been able to do with that is connect to Looker Studio and be able to create great graphs and reports, filters of those directories. To me, it's a lot easier to do it that way. Of course, you could probably do it with just a single property, but this just gets us more information at a directory level, like example.
com/toys. Sitemaps Next I want to dive into our sitemaps. So as you know, it's a laundry list of URLs you want Google to see. Typically you throw 50,000, if your site is that big, into a sitemap, drop it at the root, put it in robots.txt, go ahead and throw it in Search Console, and Google will tell you that they've successfully accepted it, crawled it, and then you can see the page indexation report and what they're giving you about that sitemap.
having lately, especially at the site that I'm working at now with millions of URLs, is that Google doesn't always accept that sitemap, at least not right away. Sometimes it's taken a couple weeks for Google to even say, "Hey, all right, we'll accept this sitemap," and even longer to get any useful data out of that. So to help get past that issue that I've been having, I now break my sitemaps into 10,000 URL pieces.
