      Do search engines Read RoR sitemaps ? Are they necessary ?  Isn't xml sitemap enough.

        What does a Ruby site map look like? Surely Ruby just runs something like 'gen_url_list' and you can output it in sitemap.xml, no?

        Ignore that, ROR is an XML format, lol.

        Eh, no search engines support them as far a I know.

        Why not test it by submitting one through WMT and seeing if Google accepts it and let us know the results? 🙂

        • Do we need to manually submit a sitemap every time, or can we host it on our site as /sitemap and Google will see & crawl it?
