    I have searched this forum for the answer but didn't satisfied with it. So here is the question...

    Can I have a sitemap for my blog hosted on blogger?

    If yes, how can I do that?

    else, what are the other options.

    Thanks

    I don't know this for a fact, but i'm pretty sure a sitemap is not necessary for Blogger blogs.. Google owns it, you know they're going to get every page indexed..

    I think the same. You don't need a sitemap webgk.com! But you can use atom feed as a sitemap. It's easy and no issues, google wemaster accepts it.
    And I can see you've already done that.
    Let us know howz that going?

    Yeah, but I think if you add atom as a sitemap, crawling gets much faster.

    What do you say?

    I added my Blogger blog's atom feed to Google. Even if we don't need, it never hurts to try.

    Guys! As i said there is NO NEED to add atom file as a sitemap. Google does it autmatically.

    You can check it for yourself.

    Open any web browser and type the following address :

    http://YourBlogName.blogspot.com/robots.txt

    (Replace YourBlogName with your blog name)

    In the text file that is displayed, you will see that Google is already using your blog's atom file as a sitemap!:D:D

    Thanks for the link. I'm not fully satisfied with the replies though.
    I am looking for - "does it make any difference for blogger?"
    Many says - YES it makes, and many says NO.
    If anybody has the clarity over it, please reply with your own examples, would be appreciated.
    Thanks a lot for your responses. :)
