Google ping
Hi

Can somebody please answer a quick question for me...

What, exactly, is the Google ping function? I have manually submitted a sitemap to Google. I can login and re-submit this at will. What I can't understand is what the Google ping does. Does that tell Google that my sitemap has been updated?

Sorry if this is a silly question...

Thanks

MK

Re: Google ping
Hello Mike,

yes, this is basically to let google know that sitemap has been updated.

Re: Google ping
Thanks Oleg. Should have tried there first. All credit to you guys - vBSEO and the sitemap tool are great bits of kit. I'm just hoping to start appearing on Google soon...
