Google refuses to crawl my sitemaps included not in the root folder

My sitemaps are generated not in my root folder, so google refuses to crawl them. I can ping them from my site and it says submitted. but is it the same?

 

let me know your website address and sitemap url.

 

If your sitemap is not in the root and in the subfolder /myfolder/mysitemap.xml then you can only report links from that subfolder.
Example:
/myfolder/mypage.htm - ok
/myfolder/f1/mypage.htm - ok
/anotherfolder/mypage.htm - not ok

May be that is your problem.

 

Why don't you just move them to your root folder

 

Google has stated that all site maps be located in the domain's root. Do this and you will have no problem.

We have been doing this for ~ 2 years now without problems.
