  I have downloaded the XML Google Maps WordPress Plug-in and linked it to a KML file so my information is now downloaded to a Google Earth KML File. The instructions say to upload the KML file to my blog and create a link to the XML file. Can you all tell I am new to this and can use all the help you can give me. Thank-you.

  the google site maps are for WordPress.Org self hosted blogs.

  you cannot use plug ins for wordpress.com
  as far as i know KML, XML and HTML extention formats cannot be uploaded to as media to a wordpress.com blog

  the difference between WordPress.com and wordpress.org resources:

  dlager,
  thank-you for the explaination. No wonder I wa so confused. What I do not understand is that I took this set of directions and did it correctly once. I have a nice google map of my sold listings on my website. Now that I want to make changes and do the process over again I do not understand what I did….
