The Google XML Sitemap: Any SEO expert will tell you that whether you have a blog or a static website you must have a sitemap. A sitemap is a page that contains a link to every page on your blog. When the Google spiders come crawling it is this page that will make it easier for the spiders to find and index each and every page of your blog.

The easier you make it for your readers to bookmark your posts the more likely they are to do it. The more social bookmarks your posts get the more backlinks they have.
