Generate And Submit Sitemaps To Yahoo Ask And Bing Search

One of the most asked questions by new Bloggers is 'How Can I Get My Blog Listed On Google ?'.Yet many new Bloggers and even some of the experienced Bloggers make no attempt to get their Blogs listed on the other three main search engines namely Yahoo, Bing and Ask.Google is the big guy in search but Yahoo, Bing and Ask have a loyal user base and return millions of search results daily, it makes sense to get your blog listed in those results.We previously seen how you can Submit 2 sitemaps to Google and in this post i will show you how to generate a XML sitemap for your blog and submit it to Yahoo, Bing and Ask.By submitting a sitemap you are sending all your blogs content directly to each search engine to be crawled and indexed.The tutorial has two sections, first we will create the XML sitemap and then we will 'Ping' it to each search engine.

Submit Sitemap To Yahoo, Bing and Ask

Create XML Sitemap

Step 1. There are a number of sites that allow you to create a free XML sitemap.Here i will use xml-sitemaps, To Generate your fee sitemap go to www.xml-sitemaps.com

Step 2. Scroll To The Sitemap Generator And Enter Your Blogs URL.You don't need to change the other fields just click the start button.



Step 3. Your sitemap will now be created it may take a few minutes.Once created you will get a list of available links you need to get the .XML link to submit.To do this 'Right Click' on the top link and copy the link.



Ping Your Sitemap To Search Engines

Each search engine has a Ping URL you can use.Copy each URL below into your browser and replace SITEMAP-URL-HERE with your sitemap then enter to submit.

Note - Sitemap URL should end in .XML
Example - http://www.xml-sitemaps.com/download/www.yourblog.com/sitemap.xml

Yahoo

http://search.yahooapis.com/SiteExplorerService/V1/updateNotification?appid=SitemapWriter&url=SITEMAP-URL-HERE?redirect=false

Bing

http://www.bing.com/webmaster/ping.aspx?siteMap=SITEMAP-URL-HERE

Ask

http://submissions.ask.com/ping?sitemap=SITEMAP-URL-HERE

New Ask

http://submissions.ask.com/ping?sitemap=http://www.YourWebSite.com/sitemap.xml

Once you submit each sitemap you will get a message confirming the submission.That should help get your blog indexed and returned in Yahoo, Bing and Ask search.Make sure to check out more of our SEO Blog Tips.

Last year i wrote a post on creating a Contact Me or Contact Us forms and adding them to your blog.In that post we looked at using "Email Me Form" to create your contact form and while the version they provide worked very well in this post i will show you a much easier quicker Contact form your can use.While Email Me Form required you to register and had a limit on the number of forms you could create this new contact form can be created in seconds without the need to register and not limits are in place on the number you can create.

With Foxy Form you simply choose the fields you want included in your form, add the Email address you want to be forwarded to messages to and generate the code.You can optionally use the advanced options to change the appearance of the form like fonts and colors.Once created you can add the form to a page on your Blogger or Wordpress Blogs.
