Looks like I am learning more SEO from the sample resumes website I am working on. It has been more than 4 days since I wrote about resume format on my resume site and Google has not indexed it yet!!!! When it comes to blogs, Google indexes them in seconds from publishing. And here is a static website with good ranking for several target keywords related to resumes and Google has not indexed it for more than 4 days. I have added a sitemap to it and submitted the same to Google webmaster tool.
Learning: Even if you intend to create a static website, you will do well to base it on a blogging platform like wordpress and then customize the template code to give it a static look.
