Hi

My Google listing is out of date and I want it to update to reflect the new changes.

Is there any way I can get google to update their listing quickly? I added it to the 'Add URL' feature for websites to crawl about 2 days ago now. It's a well-linked website so I'd have thought they'd crawl it by now.

Thanks....

Sure, submit a xml sitemap. If you already have one, delete it from webmaster tools and add it again.

Hi.

Thanks for your reply. What I've done is created a quick XML file and uploaded it to URL.com/sitemap.xml. I've then gone into the 'Add URL' part of Google and submitted the full URL of the sitemap. Is that right?

My sitemap looks rather... errm, basic. :D

What you've done is right. Try to get links also from sites that is often crawl or try deep linking.
