			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you don&#8217;t already have a Google Webmaster Tools account, you need to do so and you can follow our guide <a href="http://howtomakeblog.net/maintenance/google/google-webmaster-tools/">Here</a> on how to do so.  Once you have set up your account, go to your webmaster tools home page and click Submit Sitemap</p>
<div id="attachment_169" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 540px"><a href="http://howtomakeblog.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Submit-Sitemap.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-169" title="Submit Sitemap" src="http://howtomakeblog.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Submit-Sitemap.jpg" alt="Submit Sitemap" width="530" height="102" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Submit Sitemap</p></div>
<p>Also make sure that you have the plugin <a rel="nofollow" href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/google-sitemap-generator/" target="_blank">Google XML Sitemap Generator</a>.  This will generate a sitemap of every page on your blog and it will create a new one automatically every time you update your blog.  This is an amazing plugin and it makes things incredibly easy.  With this plugin it will create a sitemap at http://www.yoursite.com/sitemap.xml</p>
<p>On the submit a sitemap page click on Submit a Sitemap and enter that address:</p>
<div id="attachment_170" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 654px"><a href="http://howtomakeblog.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Submit-Sitemap-2.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-170" title="Submit Sitemap 2" src="http://howtomakeblog.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Submit-Sitemap-2.jpg" alt="Submitting Sitemap" width="644" height="192" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Submitting Sitemap</p></div>
<p>Your sitemap page will now look something like this:</p>
<div id="attachment_171" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://howtomakeblog.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Submit-Sitemap-3.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-171" title="Submit Sitemap 3" src="http://howtomakeblog.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/Submit-Sitemap-3-300x101.jpg" alt="Sitemap Submitted" width="300" height="101" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Sitemap Submitted</p></div>
<p>Again this will take a little time to get the data in there.  You have now submitted every page of your blog to the Google search engine.  This will help get your pages indexed and ranked fast.</p>
