Sitelinks Disappeard For My Site

[DavidZA1]

Hi Guys

I noticed that all the sitelinks for my site has disappeared.

Could it be because of recent changes that I made to the site or maybe because I submitted a new sitemap for my site?

Should I ask the googlebot to fetch my site now again after I submitted my sitemap and also ask to re-index it?

I also read somewhere else that Google could be re-indexing my site and thus still needs to determine what my sitelinks is going to be.

If somebody could please give me some advice on this I would appreciate it.

Thanks

Dave

Hi,

Sitemap is not a reason of disappearing of your site-links. Please check the URL which you have resubmitted for example if your site is index with www or you have submitted your sitemap without www version URLs, and also check preferred version in Google webmaster tool. If you have set your sitelinks in Google webmaster then don't worry only check the new sitemap.

My sitelinks disappeared last week.  I was frantically searching for reasons why and then 10 minutes later it was back.  I wouldn't get too stressed for now.  Wait and see if they come back.  Google may be experimenting with some algo changes and perhaps they only show sitelinks for certain queries and not every single time.
