Submit Your Blog's Sitemap To BING, Yahoo, MSN, Ask, and of course Google !

how to submit your blog's sitemap to Google has already been published on BloggerStop.
Although for most of the bloggers Google is the main source of traffic among all the search engines, but it doesn't mean that you can ignore other search engines like Yahoo, MSN Live and Ask.com

In case of Google, once you submit the sitemap, the process is quite automated and Google starts indexing your blog frequently. But for Yahoo, MSN and Ask you have to manually ping them occasionally. So here's what you have to do to submit your sitemap to these lazy Search engines:

Copy and paste your sitemaps in a text file:

1.http://bloggerhelped.blogspot.com//atom.xml
2.http://bloggerhelped.blogspot.com/rss.xml
Remember to replace the text in blue with your own blog's url.
Now in the address bar of your Internet browser (IE, Firefox, Opera etc.), paste these lines one by one and hit enter:
 
Submit Sitemap to Yahoo! :
http://search.yahooapis.com/SiteExplorerService/V1/updateNotification?appid=SitemapWriter&url=http://bloggerhelped.blogspot.com//atom.xml?redirect=false 
 
http://search.yahooapis.com/SiteExplorerService/V1/ping?sitemap=http://bloggerhelped.blogspot.com//atom.xml?redirect=false 
 
Submit Sitemap to Windows Live:
http://webmaster.live.com/ping.aspx?siteMap=http://bloggerhelped.blogspot.com/atom.xml  
 
Submit Sitemap to Ask.com:
http://submissions.ask.com/ping?sitemap=http://bloggerhelped.blogspot.com/atom.xml 
  
NOTE: Change the links in RED, with your own Sitemaps (and instead of atom.xml you may use rss.xml too).

you may also submit your blog's sitemap to BING, along with your blog's url: 
www.bing.com/webmaster/ping.aspx?siteMap=http://bloggerhelped.blogspot.com/atom.xml 

Submit Your Blogs Sitemap To Google


Generally speaking, sitemap is simply a website-map, showing all the pages and sub-pages of a website or a blog, which guides both visitors and search engines like Google, Yahoo etc. to roam around your blog. And when search engines roam around your blog, it is called indexing of your website. And as "indexing" is one of the most important aspects of SEO, so submission of sitemaps to Google/Yahoo/Bing is very very important.
