Submit a Sitemap

Last Updated on May 21, 2013
Sitemaps can be submitted to search engines for improved crawling and indexing. Every Virb site has  a sitemap URL at:

http://yoursiteaddress.com/sitemap/xml

You can submit this URL to Google Webmaster Tools. Don't have a Google Webmaster Tools account? Go here to sign up and follow our instructions for verification.

Once you have done that, follow these steps to submit the sitemap:

1. Go to Google's Webmasters Page and log in with your Google Account.

2. Click on the optimization section and select Sitemaps.

3. Click on the Add/Test Sitemap button and enter "sitemap/xml" in the prompt.

4. Click on Submit Sitemap.

After you submit a Sitemap, it may take some time before Google processes it. Once it has been processed, it may then take a little more time before Google crawls and indexes the URLs it includes.
