how to add sitemap of your blogger blog to Google

WHAT IS A SITEMAP ?

This is what the http://www.sitemaps.org/ says :

Sitemaps are an easy way for webmasters to inform search engines about pages on their sites that are available for crawling. In its simplest form, a Sitemap is an XML file that lists URLs for a site along with additional metadata about each URL (when it was last updated, how often it usually changes, and how important it is, relative to other URLs in the site) so that search engines can more intelligently crawl the site.

I have seen so many bloggers being lazy to add a sitemap to google.well that is not a complex process so never hesitate to add one.It just takes 5 to 10 seconds to add it.So here are the steps to add a sitemap of your blogger blog :

1.login to webmaster tools and visit the site profile whose site map you want to add ,

2.after visiting the dashboard click on “sitemaps->overview” at the left side of the webpage.

here is the snapshot :

 

3.you might find a blank box there .now type :

rss.xml

or

atom.xml    in the blank text box  and click “submit sitemap”.

Thats it :)

Now google bots will crawl your blog cleanly and report all errors to you.
