Add an XML sitemap to your actor website

Depending on your design structure and code quality, you may want to consider adding an XML sitemap to your actor website so that Google knows how to navigate it.

If you've had a website for quite some time (more than a month), it's easy to check whether or not your website needs one. Simply go to google.com and type in: site:yourdomainname.com

Of course you would replace the domain above to your own. Google will then return all the pages they found on your website. If anything is missing, that means google was unable to find it and may need your help directing them to the proper pages. Here's an example:
