    Question Multiple sitemaps in Google Webmaster Tools

    I have www.mysite.com/forum set up in GoogleWebmaster Tools. The sitemap is sitemap_1.xml.gz. If I check my data folder, I've got sitemap_2.xml all the way up to sitemap_13.xml.

    Should I include all of these in Google Webmaster Tools? Do I need to keep notification on in vBSEO Sitemap if I'm set up in Webmaster Tools?

    You only need to submit sitemap_index.xml.gz. It contains links to any/all of the other sitemaps that were generated.
