I have made a github webpage using R studio that I'm more or less happy with. Yay! I used the following tutorial to make it. Trouble is I cannot seem to 'find' it when I google it (even though I know what I'm looking for).
StackExchange::Webmasters have suggested I may need to add a sitemap.xml.
Question: Do I really need a sitemap.xml? If so, how do I go about making one using R studio, and where does it belong in my github pages directory?

Google crawlers index the web 4 times a day (at least they used to, maybe more now). I see you last updated your repository a month ago.
If you search site:cpryan.github.io Google is supposed to return the pages it has indexed.
You can also claim your site on Google's WebMaster site (by putting a small file in your repo with a code Google give you) to see even more information about what Google has or maybe has not indexed.

I recently noticed that mi dashDB entry plan under a dedicated ibm cloud environment has been sunset. I read an article that said that, but i had not been informed previously, so i lost my two databases (production, and testing).
Does anyone know what i should do in this case? I have a lot of sensible data inside them, and i didn´t have any problem about changing the plan, but i don´t know how to do it because i cannot get inside the console (it doesn´t work anymore). Is there any way to recover my databases? Thanks.

I have built myself a website with GitHub Pages but it is possible to tell how many visitors have been there?
I know there is the traffic tab in my repository, does this also show me the amount of views on my site as well as the repository itself? If not how can I do it?
Currently, there is no way to view the number of visitors to a GitHub pages site through GitHub itself. To get this functionality you would have to add a third party analytics tool such as Google Analytics or Plausible to your website.

I want to find some newly-created Github projects which will be easy to understand and contribute to. But in GitHub there's only a "explore" function that lists the most popular projects. How do I find the projects that are not so popular or mature? Do I need to write a program to query their developer API for this information, or is there an easier way to find newly-created projects on Github? Thanks.
On their search details page github lists some ways to find this information:
https://help.github.com/articles/searching-repositories
You can filter repositories based on times of creation, or when they
were last updated. For repository creation, you can use the created
qualifier;
Example:
ruby created:>2014-01-01
Matches repositories with the word "ruby" that were created after Jan 1, 2014
Good luck, and I'm glad you are wanting to contribute to an open source project!

I've had this problem for 2 weeks. Google is not showing the star rating of my post in searches, although in the test snippets tool it's showing correctly. Google is also crawling the richsnippets‎ values since I specifically fetch a post with the Google Web Master Tool and check the values.
Here is what it looks like in Google snippet tool result:
and what it currently looks like on Google:
I'm using the GD star rating plugin (1.9.22) and Wordpress (3.5.1).
Have you looked in Webmaster tools under Search Appearance > Structured Data
It will list any data there that it considers important. It is worth noting that they tend to be a bti funny about reviews, if you have less than 10 reviews don't expect anything to show. Also structured data is notoriously up and down, it isn't and exact science so maybe give it a little longer.
I am also searching on it ,
and I found on google below link,
https://developers.google.com/structured-data/rich-snippets/reviews#aggregate_ratings
Ratings
An aggregate evaluation of an item by many people should be marked up as a schema.org/AggregateRating . The default rating scale is from 1 (worst) to 5 (best), but any scale can be used; see below for an example. Google MAY display aggregate ratings as rich snippets or, for certain types of items, answers in search results, as shown below.

I have a new website http://www.xzy.com .
When I search on google with the keyword xzy, then another website with similar pronunciation is displayed in the search results and my website is displayed in "Search instead for" part. How can I show proper results on google ?
EDIT:
After around 2 months of working on my website i have found that google has started to recognize "XZY" as new word in spite of having tough competition with XYZ. Now instead of showing "Search instead of" google is displaying proper normal result.
Until your site is more popular, Google will always think that "thotlabs" is a mistyping of "thorlabs." When your site is searched enough, Google will recognize both as acceptable spellings and not recommend a different spelling.
In the meantime, register your site on Google Webmaster Tools so Google is more aware of your site and you can see data on how Google is indexing your site.
