HOW TO GENERATE AND SUBMIT SITEMAP IN BLOGGER

What is a sitemap?

A sitemap is a file that contains a list of all the pages and posts on your blog. It helps search engines like Google to find and index your content more easily.

To generate a sitemap for your Blogger blog, go to Settings > Other in your Blogger dashboard. Under the "Site Feed" section, select "Full" from the drop-down menu next to "Allow Blog Feed". This will generate a sitemap file for your blog which you can then submit to Google via the Webmaster Tools.

If you're not already using Webmaster Tools, sign up for a free account and then add your site. Once you've added your site, click on the "Sitemaps" link in the left-hand sidebar and then click on the "Add/Test Sitemap" button. In the pop-up window, enter the URL of your sitemap file (e.g. http://www.example.com/sitemap.xml) and then click on the "Submit Sitemap" button.

That's it! You've now successfully generated and submitted a sitemap for your Blogger blog.

How to submit your sitemap to Google?

If you have a sitemap for your website, you can submit it to Google to help them crawl and index your site more effectively. To do this, simply login to your Google Search Console account and navigate to the Sitemaps section. From here, you can add your sitemap URL and submit it for crawling.

How to check if your sitemap is working?

After you have generated and submitted your sitemap, it is important to check if it is working properly. You can do this by using Google's Search Console.

First, go to Google's Search Console and sign in with your Google account. If you don't have a Google account, you can create one for free.

Once you're signed in, click on the "Sitemaps" tab from the sidebar on the left. Then, click on the "Add a new sitemap" button.

Enter the URL of your sitemap and click "Submit". Google will now start crawling your sitemap and indexing your content.

To check if everything is working properly, go back to the "Sitemaps" tab and click on the sitemap you just submitted. If there are no errors, then your sitemap is working fine!
