    Dear Friends,

    I have to submit the sitemap for one of my new client site. It seems already some body created the sitemap for that site. So, I deleted that sitemap and upload the new xml generated sitemap to my client server and I submitted the sitemap to google through the webmaster tool. But my new submitted the site map is not yet accepted. But I saw the old sitemap details are in my webmaster tool. Eventhough I deleted that old file. In this case, How I will delete that old sitemap details from my webmaster tool?

    Thanks in advance

    Yes I submitted the sitemap before 4 days. But, yet that is not accepted by Google. I don't know the reason. I checked XML file also. It doesn't contains any bugs.

    If you let us know the url of your sitemap maybe we could help?

    Chances are the sitemap is malformed.
