    Hello,

    Hope you can help, the google program tells me:
    --
    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.
    --
    I don't understand why. In the first place the url which are mentioned are not in my site map.
    URL: http://www.stropdassen.be/nl/blauwe_stropdassen/

    My site map (http://www.stropdassen.be/sitemap.gz) contains:

    <url>
    <loc>http://www.stropdassen.be/nl/blauwe_stropdassen/index.htm</loc>
    <lastmod>2008-02-03T00:38:32+00:00</lastmod>
    <changefreq>weekly</changefreq>
    <priority>0.9</priority>
    </url>

    Second even when th URL whitout the index.htm will be used their will be only 1 redirect (301). see below.

    Thank you! Best regards,

    Bas

    If you made any redirection (permanent or temporary) to any url than remove that URL and submit that original url. and resubmit sitemap.

    Hi Berserker,

    Thanks for your reply too. Do you also use an index file, like index.htm(l)
    Maybe google ignores the index files and use / ?
