I&rsquo;ve submitted several websites to Google in the past, but I just launched a new website recently, which means I need to do it again. I figured since I&rsquo;m going through the process anyway, I might as well document it and share it with you. This way you can see how I personally go about making sure that my websites are visible in Google and you can follow the same process to get yours out there too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<div

<strong>cPanel<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some hosting companies also let you log into cPanel externally, using your credentials. If you&rsquo;re unsure, check with your host&rsquo;s support team. Also, note that some providers use their own custom panel instead of cPanel, in which case, you&rsquo;ll also have to reach out to their support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Assuming your hosting company uses cPanel and you&rsquo;re able to log in successfully, then the next step is to find and select the <strong>Zone Editor<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#128161; If you&rsquo;re having trouble finding it, there should also be a <strong>Search Tools<\/strong> bar on the top right where you can simply type it in and it&rsquo;ll come up in the results.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image

If you want, you can filter them by record type.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is useful in case you&rsquo;re unsure if a TXT record with the Google Search Console code has already been added previously. Sometimes people own domains for a long time before they decide to do anything with them and often don&rsquo;t remember what was already done (or not done) in the past. (I speak from personal experience when I say this &#128514;.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If that applies to you, then click on the TXT filter button. It will show you only the TXT records so that you&rsquo;ll be able to quickly identify if anything says &ldquo;Google Site Verification.&rdquo;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Otherwise, if the coast is clear, you can click on the <strong>small down arrow<\/strong> next to the <strong>Add Record<\/strong> button on the right.

href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/wordpress-sitemap\/\">A sitemap<\/a> is a file that provides search engines with information on the different pages on your site. Once you have submitted a sitemap, Google can then easily retrieve your site&rsquo;s pages and index them for Google Search.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These days you can easily generate <a href=\"https:\/\/themeisle.com\/blog\/xml-sitemap\/\">XML sitemaps<\/a> of various sections of your website for free by using ChatGPT, Claude, or similar AI tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a universal way to create a sitemap, but you&rsquo;ll still need to add it to your site before submitting it to Google. That&rsquo;s actually the more complicated part than creating the sitemap itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you built your site with WordPress, then you can bypass this entirely and just use a free plugin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since not everyone is a WordPress user, I will first show you how to generate a sitemap with ChatGPT, and then I&rsquo;ll go over the plugin method for WordPress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-create-a-sitemap-with-chatgpt-or-a-similar-ai-tool\">Create a sitemap with ChatGPT (or a similar AI tool)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>To create a sitemap with ChatGPT, first create a free OpenAI account (if you don&rsquo;t already have one) and then log into it. Although you can use ChatGPT for free without logging in, it generally gives better results when you <em>are<\/em> logged in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can see the difference below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is

likely going to be given a generic sitemap template that has your domain filled in, but not much else. This isn&rsquo;t very useful. Compare that to when you are logged in, and GPT will crawl your site and generate a useable sitemap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After you get your sitemap, the tricky part is how to add it to your website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This will depend on what platform or technology you used to build your site and where you&rsquo;re hosting it.
