Submittng RSS as a sitemap in blogger





This is the feature that most of the SEO people ask each other. How can we submit a sitemap through Google's Webmaster tool. I was too annoyed in searching option for submitting a sitemap for a blog hosted on Blogger.

A sitemap is the feature which tells search engine what are the pages that websites. It enables crawler to jump from link to other link which without sitemap may not be discover by crawler.  Sitemaps are generally written in XML( Extensible markup Language). A language which is used for storing text information in a structured manner.

RSS( Really Simple Syndication) is a feed format used to publish frequently updated  information. Whatever the new information created can reach to the people who subscribe to that RSS. It is most commonly used for blogs. RSS also is written using XML language. And this is the reason why RSS is also accepted in Webmaster as a replacement sitemap.


To accomplish this:
  • Log into your webmaster account and select the site of which sitemap you want to submit
  • Under Your site on the web select Subscriber stats
  • Now under Submit feed as a Sitemap click Yes Please
Your Sitemap will be approved in few hours and all the URLs will be submitted from RSS.




The MRSS feed is the Media RSS feed for publishing media like audio, video and images developed by Yahoo.
