Hello, We have used a sitemap for more than a year. But suddenly we have a problem with indexing our site The sitemapgenerator only indexed one page now? We have more than 1000 pages. We bought the generator from xml-sitemaps.com, so we're tried after this problem many others, free generators, and they have the same problem with our site. Does somebody has any idea what could be the problem? Thank you!
If you can post the url of your site, we can take a look to see what might be the problem and make a recommendation.
Check whether all the pages are linked to the home / index page either directly or indirectly. If there are orphaned pages in your site, they will not be included in the sitemap...
If you're not already using it, sign up with Google Webmaster tools, as it will tell you if there are any errors with your sitemap (eg: malformed XML, over size limit, etc...) plus other useful tools for your site.
Check to make sure you are not blocking your pages with your robots.txt file. You can do that with Google's webmaster tools. Failing that why not send an email to xml-sitemaps.com support to see if they can shed any light on your problem.
Thank you for your tips! It's now working, the problem was that NO FOLLOW was on. So we set it off. But now we have another problem. It's still confusing, because in this forum they told me that NO FOLLOW must be on Excuse for my bad English, I'm from the Netherlands.
