    Yes, you should create a Google Webmater account if you haven't already, and submit your sitemap URL. Your URL will be shown on your vBSEO Sitemap menu.

    What is the URL? I can't find the link.

    Do I need to submit this each day or will google do it automatically?

    That's your vBSEO Sitemap menu. Your sitemap URL will be shown on that screen. Once you add it into your Google Webmaster account that's all you have to do. The nightly cron job will notify Google each time the sitemap is updated.

    Keith - I think I must have made a mistake during install. I got the email stating that the sitemap was updated, I logged in and there is nothing listed there. I did chmod777 the directory btw. I'll look into it when I finish work today.
