  Hello

  Based upon previous forums I just want to be sure I’m understanding this correctly in regards to a domain root folder. There is no specific domain root file to upload my sitemap file on WordPress.com, correct? I know that upon renewal I paid for site mapping but was looking to upload a particular sitemap link to WordPress.com blog. Thanks

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  To verify blog ownership of a WordPress.com hosted blog with the major search engines you must use this process > http://en.support.wordpress.com/webmaster-tools/
  Note: Even if you do not verify the blog the content will be indexed by search engines so don’t feel panicky about this please.

  WordPress.com automatically supplies sitemaps for our blogs to search engines – we do nothing. http://en.support.wordpress.com/sitemaps/#xml-sitemaps-for-search-engines
