Configuring Google XML Sitemaps, explaining of settings and options

21. Notify the search engines of your changes. This is on top of the form.

Congratulations! You are done!

I received an Internal Server Error, and if you get that, you need to notify Google and Bing manually of the changes you have made.

22. Go to Google Search console and add a new sitemap

I apologize the screenshot is in Dutch, but you will recognize the menu

23. Add sitemap

24. Send

25. Test

I hope you learned something new today

Did you use the plugin Kyle advised? Google XML sitemaps?

Ahh no AIO sitemap, is there a big difference. I thought I read somewhere that there was no need to use the plugin, use AIO

I have 7 websites, and the AIO refused to do its job on the first 3 I tried, so I go for Kyle's recommendation
