Manish-- That thread wasn't very helpful. I am also interested in learning about sitemaps, but I don't understand how to create them. What's an XML file? What should it look like? How do I make one? Etc. The information on Google's site wasn't very helpful to me.... too confusing.
http://www.sitemaps.org/ could be helpful to you..You can find all the sitemap.xml related info here... For your subdomains, you need to create individual sitemap for each subdomain. You can find more info here https://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps/docs/en/protocol.html ...
You have to make separate sitemap for each subdomain. And add all subdomain sitemap in Google Webmaster Tool like main domain sitemap. And if you use HTML file for verification than you have to upload verification HTMl file in each subdomain not in domain root level.
The verification file eg: google123456789.html will be the same file for each subdomain if you use the same google account to monitor each sub domain. I personally use two types of sitemap one in html for visitors and one xml for googlebot ect. http://www.xml-sitemaps.com/ is one free service. If you have a main domain name with 10 subdomains then the sitemap for the main url would be http://www.digitalpoint.com/sitemap.xml placed in the digitalpoint.com directory on your webhost And each subdomain in turn: http://www.subdomain1.digitalpoint.com/sitemap.xml placed in the subdomain1.digitalpoint.com directory on your webhost http://www.subdomain2.digitalpoint.com/sitemap.xml placed in the subdomain2.digitalpoint.com directory on your webhost Hope this helps
My site have 5 subdomain. When i submit sitemap to google webmaster, it have error "URL not allowed This url is not allowed for a Sitemap at this location".please help me.
I jusr added a blog on my site as blog.jobs8home.com and I created another sitemap for my blog. I just read sonmewhere that Webmaster does not accept a seprate URL as the subdomain.
try searching your query at sitemaps official site, also it is not a good seo technique to create a sitemap of diff sub-domains.
