        Not sure on that method but you can update your sitemap in Google easily by clicking the 'resubmit' button that is available on the sitemap page in Google Webmaster Tools.

          If you are logged in to your google account there is no reason why not, but as suggested - resubmission from webmaster tools is probably the better bet. If you are on an apache server you could also set the sitemap to be pinged with the major SE's via a chron job.

          • We recently updated a large guide that takes the place of the original. The original has some nice organic traffic to it and I don't want to risk losing it. Should I 301 redirect to the new version, or update all the info directly on the original page?
