where are my sitemap?
-
Hello,
i have a new blog, http://www.itranslationspanish.com, and I though I followed the index ation process with Google ( not bing yet). But today, talking to Google ads staff, I learnt that my web is not indexed by Google. Trying to find out what happens, I was unable to find the sitemap. I read:
Your blog is enabled with just about everything you need to be super-searchable. This includes an XML sitemap, which you can access at yourblogname.wordpress.com/sitemap.xml.But I wen to to http://www.itranslationspanish.wordpress.com/sitemap.xml. and that doesn´t appear there, neither it does with another web (wordpress too) I have linked to that one.
I also saw I can not ad pluggins o the web, what should i do?The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
Since you have a custom domain, your sitemap is located at that address here: http://itranslationspanish.com/sitemap.xml
If you go to your free .wordpress.com address you’ll be redirected to your custom domain, but make sure you don’t add an extra “www” at the beginning of the URL: http://itranslationspanish.wordpress.com/sitemap.xml
Please let me know if you’d like any further help with that!

Hello Rachel,
Thank you very much for your response,
I just saw the sitemap where you say. If it is not asking for too much, is there a way for me to know if my site is indexed in Google? I know it is not in bing, as I have done nothing about it yet, for Google I thought I did it following the steps indicated in WordPress, but I was told yesterday that it looks like is not. Or is it a matter of time? -
Hi there,
You can check to see if your site is indexed in Google by doing a Google site: search. I checked, and it is indexed. Here’s a link to the search so you can see:
http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Aitranslationspanish.com
You don’t actually need to do anything to get your site indexed by search engines. Setting up Webmaster Tools like you did with Google may help the search engines index it faster, but even if you don’t set that up the search engines will eventually index your site. We have more information about search engines here: Search Engines
Please let me know if you have any questions about that. :)

Thanks a lot again Rachel, I do appreciate the detailed response, I hope I don´t have more questions in the near future, although with my abilities that remains a hope I´m afraid.
Muchas gracias!
