Sitemap Wordpress
-
My sitemap in wordpress is showing up like this http://arowautorental.com/sitemap/ but i got parents page on th website and i dont see it in the sitemap, how can i fix this?
-
are we talking about an HTML site map or your XML site map?
I would not use a parent page unless it was designed specifically to create a site map if it was that's cool use it.
Because you have a functioning XML site map I am going to go ahead and assume that you're talking about an HTML site map what you showed us.
Find the footer and create or use this link I've created for you
and place it somewhere in the footer so it will show up on every page
you can make a widget in the WordPress widget area and simply paste HTML link above into that area. For more on creating links use this

The XML sitemap & HTML function correctly

http://arowautorental.com/sitemap.xml ( works just fine I would use Yoast but it's up to you)
If you are talking about an HTML site map then you're in good shape. As long as it contains all the URLs from your site.
if you do by any chance want to change or XML site map
http://arowautorental.com/sitemap.xml ( works just fine I would use Yoast but it's up to you)
https://yoast.com/wordpress/plugins/seo/
https://yoast.com/wordpress/plugins/seo/#xml-sitemap
Just place it in a static area in your footer.
You're all good I hope this helps,

Hello. I would highly recommend the plug-in WordPress SEO by Yoast. You will need to tweak a setting in this plug-in to enable XML sitemap functionality. Go to SEO > XML Sitemaps and check the box to turn on XML sitemap. Good luck!

Ability to Transition Completed Wordpress Website to New Coder/Developer
We have worked with the same Wordpress developer since 2012. They recently redesigned our Wordpress site. We purchased a real estate theme and they performed major modifications to it. The project took 8 months. There are many customized widgets and multiple plugins. We hired a new SEO. The SEO is very comfortable coding. The SEO performed certain modifications and the code broke. The original developer stepped in and and helped restore the code. The SEO stated that the site should not be so delicate; that too many plugins and widgets are used making it inherently unstable. The original developer is claiming that the SEO did not follow best practices (they did not use a dev server to test). For a non technical business owner this is very disturbing. We finally agreed that the new SEO would make changes on a dev server and the original developer will check these changes to ensure they do not break the code. My question is, shouldn't a Wordpress site be simple enough to hand over to a decent coder with little risk of breaking the code? Are there any standards regarding the hand over of a site? I am comfortable with my developers, but what if they change professions or close their company? How would I transition the site? There must be standards and protocols that allow a third party, such as an SEO to change code without causing havoc. Any one have some insight?

Site structure and Visual Sitemaps
Aside from mind mapping software are there any tools ( recommended) to build a visual sitemap of the internal linking structure of a URL? I've been trying to 'show' clients the structure of a website as it pertains to internal and external links. Here is one I've tried it's "Close" - http://site-visualizer.com/ . I've been using the excel export function, import into mind meister and building it. It's a teeny bit time consuming for large websites. Site structure I feel is a valuable portion of SEO and a down and dirty visual explanation would be great. Don't get me wrong, it offers other benefits as well- it's just I'd like to free up the time it takes. Thank you in advance. Screen shots are available on the website of the organization.

From Google Sites to Wordpress - Anyone Ventured this SEO terrain?
We have a few sites in Google Sites - and they are ugly! We have a majority (40+) of websites in Wordpress. But we have a few websites just stuck on Google Sites, and since Google won't let you fully edit the HTML, add scripts, or implement any technology since 2000, we want to move. The sad problem - the Google sites are ranking well. We rank well in Manhattan, Atlanta, Dallas, and Philadelphia. The problem is - the sites do not give much room for growth - and the bounce rate is high because they are so ugly. Has Anyone moved from Google sites to Wordpress? Should we just stay with Google and bite the ugly bullet? My fear is that these sites will not allow for growth. It is hard to update them and even harder to make them look nice. To get a sample - beware: www.counselingphiladelphia.com Even another reason to leave: The slider is non-semantic and terrible SEO. Google won't allow a slider script with tags and a hrefs, so the only way to implement a slider is through a Google Docs Presentation that keeps sliding. I know - terrible SEO (#donthate) but we needed something. Any advice and thoughts would help! Thanks Mozzers!

Can someone suggest a good wordpress plugin for compressing images?
I am building a new website and it has 500+ photo images. I've got less than 100 in there at the moment and the page speed is already very slow. I'm trying to reduce the size of the images before uploading but without a photoshop application it is very difficult. Are there any great plugins for wordpress that can help?

Why is there no sitemap.xml for SEOmoz?
I noticed that SEOmoz does not have a "root" sitemap called sitemap.xml. On the other hand, there do appear to be sitemaps for various sections of the such as http://www.seomoz.org/blog-sitemap.xml I was planning on having a root level sitemap that referenced difference sections of my site (blog, support, etc.) but I'm a little concerned that this site itself doesn't seem to be following that practice. Presumably this website is submitting the individual section maps to Google directly since they aren't linkable through sitemap.xml?
