| Now uCoz has it’s own feature for creating Sitemap files.
How to use Sitemap feature
Step one 1. First of all you need to create a Sitemap file. To do this go to Control Panel and install Site search. You’ll be offered to create a Sitemap – check the necessary modules and click "Apply". If you have a forum installed, a separate sitemap file will be created for it.     After you have created a Sitemap file you’ll be able to see two new files in the root folder of File Manager: sitemap.xml and, if you have a forum, sitemap-forum.xml.  To update a sitemap file click on Update Sitemap file in Site search module:  Sitemap can be updated not oftener than once a day. Step 2. Now you need to get the obtained files to search engines. Let’s take Google as an example. Google. Go to Webmaster Tools, select a website or add a new one. Click “Add” under Sitemap -> enter your Sitemap url and click Submit sitemap.   After the files have been checked and indexed, the links from Sitemap will appear in search engines at the next update.

| I wanted to change my site-map (instead http://mysitename.com/blog... i need http://www.mysitename.com/blog... ) - because google didn't submit my sitemap saying it has to be changed, so i uploaded a new file (changed sitemap) to the file manager, it replaced the old one, but www disappeared again...
 what to do? Thank you. Added (2009-09-21, 7:28 Pm)
---------------------------------------------
or maybe the old sitemap was not replaced by a new one...maybe the new one just disappeared (there is only one in file manager)...

| i updated my sitemap, but still the same problem. Look what i got from yahoo after submitting my sitemap: Paths don't match
We've detected that you submitted your Sitemap using a URL path that includes the www prefix (for instance, http://www.example.com/sitemap.xml ). However, the URLs listed inside your Sitemap don't use the www prefix (for instance, http://example.com/myfile.htm ).
