    Hi,
    I have submitted a sitemap for one of my sites and added it to google webmaster,after a while I was posted with this

    URLs not followed
    When we tested a sample of the URLs from your Sitemap, we found that some URLs were not accessible to Googlebot because they contained too many redirects. Please change the URLs in your Sitemap that redirect and replace them with the destination URL (the redirect target). All valid URLs will still be submitted. Help Help


    Please let me know how do I correct this,thanks a lot

    it happens to me also. .try checking your domain. . because of what happen to me when i submitted my sitemap i put WWW prefix at my domain name but i found out that my domain redirects anyone who access my site using the WWW to hxxp://mydomain.com, so i change my site settings in google sitemap and just put hxxp://yourdomain.com without the WWW at the beginning

    You can check this page about common Google Webmaster Tool Errors. The best solution is to use a sitemap generator that does not include URLs that redirect...
