If Google finds a Sitemamp: attribute in robots.txt, it'll automatically add it to its index. Theres no need to specify it in Google Sitemap Tools, though adding it giving you stats on the Sitemap(s) like crawl rate and errors etc etc. Once you add mydomain.com to Google's Webmaster Tools, you can add your sitemap here.
Say after you've added a sitemap is there anyway to verify the blog so I can see detailed information on the blogs?
The first thing you got to do is to verify your site - either by uploading an html file for which you'll get some content by google, or by adding a META tag value to your index page.
For Blogger you have to fill atom.xml , feed URL.replace instead of sitemap.xml Ex. Hxxp://yourdomainname.xxx/atom.xml Hxxp://yourdomainname.xxx/rss.xml
There are two ways of varify your site either by uploading your HTml file or using meta tag .If you are using blog, you can only use the meta tag way to varify your site
I have already registered in the sitemap and put it in my .com websites. But I can't apply it in my blogspot blog.
For example, if want to add myseminars.blogspot.com's sitemap to Google Sitemap Tools, add this http://myseminars.blogspot.com/rss.xml?redirect=false&orderby=published
But, if you look at http://myseminars.blogspot.com/robots.txt, you'll find Sitemap: http://myseminars.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?orderby=updated which gets detected as a sitemap for Google, Yahoo and MSN. What the heck, you can even ping your sitemap to most search-engines ! <searchengine_URL>/ping?sitemap=sitemap_url
Hey guys i am unable to find how where I have to add my sitemap in blogspot a/c... Please provide the path in detail ...
Its not in blogger to add your blogspot sitemap, its in Webmaster Tools where you've got to add it to.
