Generate a Complete Sitemap for your Blogspot



How to Add a Google Sitemap to your Blogger Blog



Learn how to generate a complete sitemap of your Blogger blog using an
online sitemap generator and submit the XML sitemap to Google via
robots.txt.




bloggerThe
XML Sitemap file is like a directory of all web pages that exist on
your website or blog. Search engines like Google and Bing can use these
sitemap files to discover pages on your site that the search bots may
have otherwise missed during regular crawling.




The Problem with Blogger Sitemap Files

An complete sitemap file should mention all pages of a site but that’s not the case if your blog is hosted on Blogger.

The default XML sitemap file of any Blogger blog will have only the 26 most recent blog posts – see example.
That’s a limitation because some of your older blog pages, that are
missing in the default XML sitemap file, may never get indexed in search
engines. There’s however a simple solution to fix this problem.


This
section is valid for both regular Blogger blogs (that use a
.blogspot.com address) and also the self-hosted Blogger blogs that use a
custom domain (like postsecret.com).


Here’s what you need to do to expose your blog’s complete site structure to search engines with the help of an XML sitemap.


  1. Open the Sitemap Generator and type the full address of your blogspot blog (or your self-hosted Blogger blog).

  2. Click
    the Create Sitemap button and this tool will instantly generate the
    necessary text for your sitemap. Copy the entire generated text to your
    clipboard (see screenshot below).

  3. Next go to your Blogger dashboard and under Settings – > Search Preferences, the enable Custom robots.txt option (available in the Crawling and Indexing section). Paste the clipboard text here and save your changes.


And
we are done. Search engines will automatically discover your XML
sitemap files via the robots.txt file and you don’t have to ping them
manually.

Blogger XML Sitemap

PS: If you have

switched
from Blogger to WordPress, it still makes sense to submit XML sitemaps
of your old Blogspot blog as that will aid search engines discover your
new WordPress blog posts and pages.


Submit XML Sitemap for Blogspot





Google finally released an XML sitemap for blogspot. Usually to indexed
quickly, you are prompted to put atom.xml or RSS Feed to Google
Webmaster Tools. With the release of XML sitemap for blogger, now you
can work more easily. But is valid only for Blogspot, not for Custom
Domain.



Blogger has been providing a wide range of new features, including a New look of Blogger HTML editor.
The new look aims to make it easier for blogspot users to edit HTML.
And unbeknownst to the public, Google has released an XML Sitemap for
blogspot, and it is very beneficial for us. Because the XML sitemap will
inform all existinghttp://beautifulbeta.blogspot.com/ blog URLs to
search engines. And information structure created by this sitemap, will
give employees full information to the search engine crawlers, so this
is our advantage over a blog article that quickly indexed by Google.



After Blogger XML Sitemap released, of course we had to put it to Google
Webmaster Tools, as we usually do to speed up the search engine Google
indexed all blog articles. So how do I make a sitemap? Blogger will
create anXML sitemap for Blogspot. To access the sitemap, you only need
to type your blog url and ends with sitemap.xml, for example:



http://beautifulbeta.blogspot.com/sitemap.xml



How to put XML Sitemap into Google Webmaster Tools?



How to submit Blogspot sitemap using sitemap.xml Sitemap, go to http://google.com/webmaster/tools >> choose Sitemap menu >> add sitemap.xml






Finally glad to Release Blogger XML Sitemap, so you do not have to
bother using the feed url and atom.xml again, simply submit your
blogspot sitemap.xml, and it already represents all the information
available in the blogspot url companions.

Hope it helps and useful.
