| Sitemaps for Google, Yahoo, MSN, Ask http://www.mapforums.com/sitemap.txt.gz http://www.mapforums.com/sitemap_1.xml.gz http://www.mapforums.com/sitemap_index.xml.gz Although Yahoo and Google know about them, it is the smaller search engines I haven't submitted to that might find them now.. By the way, I did find this advice for trying to submit a sitemap to MSN, instead submit to MoreOver.com and it will show up in MSN's index. You do this with a ping like below where you change the url at the end to your sitemap url.. http://api.moreover.com/ping?u=http:...p_index.xml.gz For the Ask search engine the "ping" statement is like -- http://submissions.ask.com/ping?site...temap_1.xml.gz Note that many search engines now look for a line like this in your robots.txt file so this is also good practice -- SITEMAP: http://www.mapforums.com/sitemap_1.xml.gz         |

I think put the sitemap xml address in the robots.txt is more convenient. i.e.sitemap:http://www.mysite.com/sitemap.xml |
