How to add sitemap to MSN?

MSN It's so different with google and yahoo.

At Google and yahoo, i can submit my sitemap to them. But I still failed to submit my sitemap to MSN.

Any one can explain me ?

Thanks before

 

What's your problem?

 

Is a sitemap service availabe at MSN?

First time I've heard about it

 

My Problem is i can't find place to submitted...
And what kind of sitemap can submitted..

Thanks.. for your reply.

 

could they still stay at stone age?

question is : do msn/live know what is sitemap?

 

Live will support sitemap, they adopted the 0.90 protocol.

Thanks for your explain.. and then is that protocol (0.90) different with google sitemap and yahoo sitemap?

and... how to submitted...?

 

If you have a link to the sitemap on your index page...the crawlers should see it automatically...that is how I got mine in anyway...I only submitted to Google since they use xml, but I had the html one up with a link to it and Y! and MSN found it no problem...

 

I think it's ok, if old site. But what about for new site ?

What must i do to invite it? Only waiting ?!?!

 

The best way at the mo is to have alink to your sitemap from a previously indexed page - sounds obvious I know but despite promises, MNS/Live have still not yet implemented a specific url for site map submission

 

Great tip which I had not thought of.
Will definitely try out the 'link to sitemap on previously indexed page' idea.

 

at what I know, live does not accept sitemaps as do GG and Yahoo, they simply treat the sitemap.php file as if they were regular files. in fact, I have installed sitemaps for all my sites, but live never really examines them. Livebot rather classically crawls the entire sites

 

I have been researching this for several days . The result makes me disappointed . What are you thinking ,Gates?

 

Google and Yahoo let you submit a sitemap that is in html form. However, msn for some reason only accepts xml. Hope that helps.

This thread was dead for almost a year!

For anyone reading, Live does support XML sitemaps. Go to the url below and signup to submit...

http://webmaster.live.com/

 

you can submit sitemap in submit url msn option.

but my question is how to get ranking in msn while its already having good ranking in google and yahoo.

 

Thanks a lot. I was looking for this for a long time...

 

http://webmaster.live.com/ is the spot or just use the wp pluging that autosubmits

Dat's correct and go login in your account, add site. than add your sitemap.xml URL below, copy the code for varification and add it in your meta details of home page. Done!!!!!

 

Go to http://webmaster.live.com/. add your site then verify it then add your sitemap. I think MSN is a bit similar to Google. Yahoo is the strange one.
