    Google Webmaster Tools & Sitemap

    Hi,

    Last week I started using vB Cloud.

    After a few topic I started using sitemap function and edited the settings in Google Webmaster Tools.

    From the start I see the same amount of URL sent and indexed, although more topics are started which should be in the sitemap.

    I allready rebuild the sitemap in the AdminCP but google still shows the same amount of sent URL's.

    Do you have any idea why this stays the same?

    TIA!

    Google can take a long time to start indexing a site.
    vBulletin has no control over this.

    You will normally start to see pages being indexed over time but a lot depends on content.

      Indexing I understand.

      But I don't see any changes in the "sent URL's" so I was wondering if the sitemap is rebuilding with new urls.

      I did this by hand in de admincp but no more URL's sent then from the start.

      How can I see which urls are in the sitemap?

        The site map isn't human readable.

        You should be able see in webmaster tools what is being picked up.

          Ok.

          I didn't see any changes although a few topics were added.

          After I deleted the sitemap in Google and added it again I saw the changes. Strange thing is that the date did changed but the sent URL's didn't.

          Hopefully it wil update now automatically.

          thx.
