Google Webmaster Tools Set-up
-
Hello!
My URL of www.morganlindsayphotography.com I have set up in google webmaster tools. I also have added the instance of morganlindsayphotography.com (non www version)
My blog is located at www.morganlindsayphotography.com/blog/
My question is do I add a sitemap to the "<a>www.morganlindsayphotography.com/blog/</a>" as well as the <a>www.morganlindsayphotography.com</a> ?
Thank you!

Hi Morgan
You don't necessarily have to add a profile for any of your subdirectories, but it is possible and in some cases recommended. You can learn more here.
You should definitely do so if you have different areas of your business focused on different queries, industries, keywords, etc. It just helps you get more granular about your website and the search traffic that is coming to it. One good thing about adding /blog - it can help give you ideas for content and if your topics are hitting the audience you want them to.
There is no need to add a sitemap to these subdirectories profiles in WMT.
Hope this helps - good luck!
