I am having a Wordpress blog on my CentOS server. There is no sitemap.xml in the root directory but there is sitemap_index.xml
file in the root directory which contains the following code:
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="http://mywebsite.com/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-seo/css/xml-sitemap-xsl.php"?>
<sitemapindex xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9">
<sitemap>
<loc>
http://mywebsite.com/post-sitemap.xml
</loc>
<lastmod>

</loc>
<lastmod>
2012-12-18T17:32:49+00:00
</lastmod>
</sitemap>
</sitemapindex>
My question: Which sitemap should I submit to Google Webmasters Tools? Options are:
- Only
sitemap_index.xml
- Only
post-sitemap.xml
andpage-sitemap.xml
- All 3 (sitemap_index.xml, post-sitemap.xml and page-sitemap.xml)
- Any other, please let me know.
