Adding Google sitemap to blogger.com blog account

You can now add Google sitemap to your blogger.com account and increase your chances of being indexed in Google search engine result. You can add a Sitemap to your account to give Google more information about the pages in your site to help Google crawl them more effectively.

Step # 1: Login to sitemap account

At the top of screen you will see option to add site. Just paste URL of your blog (for example http://cyberciti.blogspot.com/)

Click on Ok button. Next you will get confirmation message. Your site has been added to your account.

Step # 2: Now you need to verify your ownership of blog to view detailed statistics. Click on verify link. Google offers two methods of verification. You can either upload an HTML file with a name we specify (which is not possible with Google Blogger account), or you can add a META tag to your site’s index file. Adding META tag via template code is possible so just select Add a META tag from drop down menu:

It will generate code for you, copy the meta tag and paste it into your blogger.com template section).

Step # 3: Go to your blogger.com and login to your account. Goto your blog > Click on Template
Paste the META tag code after section:

Click on Save Template changes button

Click on Republish Index only button > Wait for few seconds so that your blog being published successfully.

Step # 4: Now goto sitemap account and click the box that read as follows:

I’ve added the META tag in the home page of http://cyberciti.blogspot.com/. Click on Verify button.

Step # 5: Now your site is added to sitemap account and verification is done. Next you need to add actual sitemap url. Since blogger.com account don’t allow you to create a text file or anything else you need to add your site feed (ATOM xml) file as a site map. Click on add a sitemap link:

Step # 6: You can add a Sitemap to your account to provide Google additional information about about your blog. Google will process your Sitemap and provide information on any errors in the Sitemaps tab as well your sitemap will be downloaded everyday to index your blog fast.
Select type as : Add General Web sitemap

Now you need to add Atom 0.3 feeds. Generally, you would use this format only if your site already has a syndication feed and this is the only way to add sitemap to your blogger.com account.

Paste url of your Atom feed: For example http://cyberciti.blogspot.com/atom.xml and click on Add Web sitemap:

Update: If you are using a new blogger beta system, use http://yourblogname.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/full as a feed url.

You will get confirmation:
You have added a Sitemap to http://cyberciti.blogspot.com/. Reports may take several hours to update. Thank you for your patience!

And you are done and your blog will be now index very fast (depend upon your posting and content).

Thank you so much for these instructions — it’s exactly what I needed! I read somewhere else that the one major drawback with using the Blogspot XML Feed as the Sitemap URL is that only new pages will likely be submitted to the Sitemap, since the feeds are meant to send out new/recent blog data and not a complete map. However, until I figure out how to get my entire Blogger Blogspot properly sitemapped, your method is by far the best (and easiest) way I’ve found so far. — thanks again, Lucas Brachish

Thanks, this helped a lot. I got stuck at uploading the xml file. I thought I had to add the one that google generated and couln’t figure out how to upload it. Now I know that blogger does not support it and I did the way you explained - easy!

29 touche { 09.30.06 at 3:31 pm }

i sure do know this..its in google’s [?} when adding a sitemap,there are 3 options and syndication feed is an option but is very limited to newer posts only, actually 5 posts only!!!how is google not doing anything for blogger support of submitting sitemaps that are generated by 3rd party or even its sitemap generator instead???

30 William { 10.09.06 at 7:38 am }

Hi,

Thanks very much for putting up such a helpful page.

But in your step #6, you mentioned that in order to submit the sitemap URL, I need to ensure that I have syndication feed. How do I do that and how would I know if I have syndication. By the way I am using Blogger Beta Version.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Regards

31 nixCraft { 10.09.06 at 2:58 pm }

Hi,

Your feed url is:
http://passiontosuccess.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/full

You can always open your blog and view the source code:
alternate” type=”application/rss+xml” line

Hope this helps

32 William { 10.09.06 at 9:04 pm }

Hi NixCraft,

Many thanks for the answer. Managed to get part of the problem solved.

I’ve generated the sitemap for my blog but I do not know how to upload this xml file to the blogger account.

Hope someone can assist.

33 nixCraft { 10.09.06 at 9:43 pm }

You don’t have to upload the file; just paste url http://passiontosuccess.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/full Atom feed as a sitemap.

34 William { 10.10.06 at 12:26 pm }

Hi nixCraft,

I did place your recommended URL for submission as sitemap. But I get the following remark after hiiting the “Submit” button:The Sitemap must be located at http://passiontosuccess.blogspot.com/. To add a Sitemap at http://passiontosuccess.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/full/, first add that site to your account and then click the Add a Sitemap link beside it.

Please let me know what has possibly gone wrong.

35 Arun { 10.10.06 at 11:35 pm }

hi i have a site http://e-bookzone.blogspot.com/ i have added the site map even then my site is not added to google what can i do

36 nixCraft { 10.11.06 at 5:06 am }

@Arun,

It takes some time; mean while keep posting on your blog and slowly google will accept you.

@William,
This seems to be blogger beta software related problem. Sitemap only accept url if it is located at root. All you can do it send an email to blogger team about fixing this problem or use old blogger.com account.

37 Justtupeu { 10.17.06 at 7:19 pm }

Hi NixCraft
I am using Blogger beta, and my feed is at http://chml-srucnoc-1.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default
but in Google sitemaps I gave the feed url as http://chml-srucnoc-1.blogspot.com/atom.xml
That page redirects to the main atom page.
Question is.. will Google sitemaps work with just the atom.xml feed url ?

38 nixCraft { 10.17.06 at 9:43 pm }

Hi Justtupeu,

Yes it should work as atom.xml URL automatically sends 302 status code.

39 birdegg { 10.18.06 at 4:29 pm }

50 Linux-box { 11.04.06 at 10:17 pm }

That rss.xml not working anymore. Firts it worked ok, but now Google webmaster tools shows errors. Maybe this is some bug. If you check atom.xml and rss.xml source now…both are same, but if you check this file http://newsblogging.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?alt=rss source it’s starts with RSS tag (not FEED), but Google sitemaps not accept that file.

51 Mauro { 11.05.06 at 5:57 am }

yes linex-box, rss.xml not working anymore. I have the same problem.

52 Jamie { 11.09.06 at 1:36 am }

Still having trouble with beta blogger sitemap. I tried both the rss.xml and the /posts/full methods. Both give me the same namespace, xml and other errors. Any solution to this?

53 Jane { 11.10.06 at 8:43 pm }

I’m having the same problem. rss.xml was working fine. Now, Google shows the error–File Not Found.

54 Dante { 11.12.06 at 11:38 pm }

I got same problem as a guy above me :). I can’t submit it on sitemap.. It says: Incorrect namespace … any solutions for this trouble?

http://we-make-you-laugh.blogspot.com/

55 Rose { 11.14.06 at 4:44 am }

If you’re using Blogger Beta where it says My Sitemap URL is: you will
need to add the rss.xml rss feed and not the atom feed.

Ex: YOURNAME.Blogspot.com/rss.xml

56 Steve { 11.14.06 at 9:58 pm }

rss.xml results in namespace error just like atom.xml.

57 Manoj Nair { 11.15.06 at 5:50 pm }

Doesnt Work with either of rss.xml or atom.xml. Generates namespace error

58 Linux-box { 11.16.06 at 9:45 pm }

Now both rss.xml and atom.xml are working fine! :)

59 Franciov { 11.17.06 at 5:23 pm }

Yes, using http://yourblogname.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/full as a feed url in beta blogger, it doesn’t work. I solved using http://yourblogname.blogspot.com/atom.xml and it works.

Thank you very much.

63 Musicoholic { 12.04.06 at 1:43 am }

This is so great! I tried http://myblogname.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/full as Sitemap addy. It did not work. But I used http://myblogname.blogspot.com/atom.xml and it did work! :)

64 Christopher Estep { 12.07.06 at 10:55 pm }

Yeah, it’s working for me too. I just happened to notice that for once it wasn’t showing an error, so I added sitemaps to my other blogs and then on my two older ones (relatively) I noticed that the feed is only publishing the most recent 26 posts. Is there any way to fix that so it shows all of them or perhaps a hack that I can generate a full (i.e. accurate) sitemap like I want?

65 cybersix { 12.11.06 at 6:34 pm }

Same to me..looks like http://myblogname.blogspot.com/atom.xml works to me..
Anyway..nice articles..

93 SomeBloggerDude { 04.15.07 at 2:47 am }

Excellent post! I have been scratching my head about this whole sitemap thing for a couple of hours. As other comments have mentioned, Google’s help pages are not at all clear on this - they seem to be focussed on traditional web sites, rather than blogs. Keep up the great work.

94 idoltheory { 04.16.07 at 1:08 am }

I used http://yourblogname.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/ as the site name, and then used http://yourblogname.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/full as the sitemap.

Is this ok? Will this work?

Idol Theory

95 idoltheory { 04.16.07 at 3:06 am }

Ok nevermind. What I asked about before did not work. Am now trying the rss.xml at the http://yourblogname.blogspot.com level

96 Daniel Radnedge { 04.21.07 at 3:45 pm }

hey i have two blogspot webpages http://vocab-wordoftheday.blogspot.com and http://myblog-mesothelioma.blogspot.com
i would like to get indexed and be on a search engine but i can’t do the sitemap thing :(
how long does it usually take to get indexed by google???

97 Chris { 04.24.07 at 2:33 pm }

Hi,
As you already say, http://yourblogname.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/ doesn´t work because google sitemaps requieres that the sitemap were located on the site root.

http://yourblogname.blogspot.com/atom.xml
works fine, but it contains just the newer posts.

I’ve realised that http://yourblogname.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?max-results=1000
returns all the post of my site.

My question is, does anybody knows how to retrive all post using some url from the site’s root?

TIA
Christian

Dude. Thank you. This is exactly what I needed and I didn’t need to read any other site. This is a must for all newbie blogspot starterers (if that’s such a word)

103 webpromotion { 06.15.07 at 4:24 am }

Yes, this is the easiest way to submit sitemap to Google if you do not have a site that hosted at an outside server. And bloggers can do this by submitting the atom or rss xml files to Google (in fact just the address) so that your blogs will be indexed by much more chance at Google.
Eg, we added:
http://ideasandtipsplanet.blogspot.com/atom.xml
http://ideasandtipsplanet.blogspot.com/rss.xml
to Google so that our blog http://ideasandtipsplanet.blogspot.com/ could be better indexed.
Notice we have two choices to do that (i.e. atom and rss xml files, which are 2 popular feed format on internet), and Rss sometimes seems to be better.

Hi! This method is no working for beta blogger. :(

“Update: If you are using a new blogger beta system, use http://yourblogname.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/full as a feed url.”

Thanks, very informative post. was searching a way to add custom site map to Google. Now I know google does not support it.

120 son le { 09.08.07 at 2:32 pm }

Could you help me please when i try to type http://gpttipsandtricks.blogspot.com/atom.xml nothing shows up and when i submit to google it gives me an error Invalid url( i used to utilize feedburner before)

121 Nikolay { 09.10.07 at 12:07 pm }

I am not sure if it helps, because usually the pages indexed by google for my blog get to lower numbers after submitting the SiteMap

122 Steve { 09.13.07 at 2:30 pm }

Thanks for the great instructions, very helpful screenshots! This will help anyone with a Blogger blog get better exposure and more traffic. I also have gotten great RSS results with Feedburner. I’d highly recommend your site to anyone who wants to know how to get better search engine results!

123 guanax { 09.14.07 at 6:29 pm }

I have the same problem that many above, with both of

http://guanaco17.blogspot.com/atom.xml
http://guanaco17.blogspot.com/rss.xml

google complains about “URL not allowed”, “Invalid XML: too many tags” and “Incorrect namespace” errors.

I’m using feedburner, maybe that’s the problem.

Anybody has been successfull adding sitemaps without errors?

124 EstebanD { 09.25.07 at 7:40 pm }

Thank you for the tip I still wonder if the sitemap is not automatically created by blogger somewhere else.

163 Michael { 01.21.08 at 12:06 pm }

Great info - and a very interesting thread. Here’s a question for you people out there. I moved a blogger account over to my own server (so I’m publishing from within Blogger via FTP). As I have a pretty good archive, I’d like to get the older pages into the system as well. The Atom only registers the last five or so. What do you recommend?

164 vivek { 01.21.08 at 2:54 pm }

Since you have FTP access try Sitemaps Third Party Programs & Websites

Follow all the instructions on the post but type this for yopur sitemap url:
