Google Site Map Status Question
« on: April 23, 2009, 05:06:50 AM »
Property    Status
Sitemap type    Web
Format    Sitemap
Submitted    18 hours ago
Last downloaded by Google    18 hours ago
Status    OK
Total URLs in Sitemap    2259
Indexed URLs in Sitemap    9

Notice that the Indexed URLs value is only 9. Is that expected behavior for 2259 URLs found in sitemap?

Also, assuming that the "Indexed" value is current, should the change once Google uses the sitemap to do an index?

TIA for a reply.

Hello,

it takes time for Google to crawl the pages found in  sitemap, analyze them and only after that include them in the index.

Can you take a look at this list and tell me if it looks okay to you. I am thinking that the blog.php and tag.php entries are not quite right.
