ok i uploaded my xml sitemap generator on my wordpress site thegatorchomp.com, but when i login to webmaster tools with google it says i have not uploaded a sitemap yet, i havent done one through the webmaster tools but i uploaded the plugin from wordpress and used that to build it, will my site still get indexed with google and all that jazz? cause i haven't seen any indexed pages yet thanks dave
Webmaster tools will only recognize a sitemap as uploaded if you specifically told it the location (even though it will find a sitemap on its own if you reference it in the robots.txt) So your site will still get indexed but it never hurts to let Google know where to look for your sitemap.
