  • Ritu Ahuja: Hi everyone. I want to submit an Image and Mobile sitemap for my blog site. Any ideas how to generate and implement that.
  • Edwin Jonk: Is it for Blogger?
  • Dave Elliott: Why would you want to create separate sitemaps? Unless you have separate mobile site(so different urls for mobile and desktop users) there isn't any obvious need for a separate mobile sitemap. Images can be handled in the normal sitemap.xml file, so unless you have a ridiculously long sitemap(over 50k worth of urls) i don't really see the need to split it.
  • Ritu Ahuja: +Edwin Jonk ;yes its for blogger. +Dave Elliott ;I was reading on web that its a good practice to submit all the sitemaps separately and the other reason is that I was looking for my blog images in search engine cant see any one of them. ;
  • Dave Elliott: If its your indian recipe blog then images are being indexed. ;

  • Ritu Ahuja: Thanks +Dave Elliott ;:-) They are indexed but I can't see them in search results. I thought may be Image sitemap help them getting better ranking.
  • Dave Elliott: never heard about it being better practice (unless large site, or you need index/crawl information for specific site area such as products, or possibly videos...not sure on the last one) or indeed that it helps with rankings. ;

    But I await the panels thoughts with interest, as I have to say i don't really know!
  • Ritu Ahuja: +Dave Elliott ;I think you are right. No need of submitting Image sitemap. Whats your opinion about mobile sitemap. When I access one of the page of my blog site through my android mobile , I cant see the entire text. URL is : ;http://scrumptiousyummyrecipe.blogspot.in/p/spices-glossary-english-to-hindi.html ;

    The cuetimes listed on this page are functional while the live broadcast continues and also once Youtube has finished processing the public broadcast. Processing time varies between 6-24 hours. During this period the clip is viewable in full but the cuetimes cannot be relied on.
