Default Blogger Sitemap
To create a sitemap for your blog is a very simple thing and it requires no hard work. Without creating a sitemap, you see your blog post on search engine but not all, but recent post only seems to appear in search results. I will teach you how to create a sitemap for your blog that will contain all the pages in your blog, so that you have a perfect and complete structure of your blog.


How to create a sitemap 
1. Submitting your sitemap to google Webmaster Tool
2. Adding your sitemap to robots.txt file

 1. Submitting your sitemap to google Webmaster Tools
like i said, creating a sitemap for your blog is easy. All you have to do is place this piece of code next to your blogs url (atom.xml?redirect=false&start-index=1&max-results=500)
Like this example...

         http://yourblogname.blogspot.com/atom.xml?redirect=false&start-index=1&max-results=500

I will like to believe that you already know of  Webmaster Tools. Well, if don't then follow this.

login to webmaster tools, located at Webmaster Tools.

step a. add your website url
after adding your website's url

step b. on the dashboard, select crawl then select sitemaps. Click on ADD/TEST SITEMAP at the top right corner of the page.

 Then submit sitemap. You are done. 

2. Adding your sitemap in robots.txt file
Login to your blogger account dashboard >> sittings >> search preferences then add the folloing line of code.
User-agent: *
2Disallow: /search
3Allow: /

User-agent: *
Disallow: /search
Allow: /

Sitemap: http://yourblogname.blogspot.com/atom.xml?redirect=false&start-index=1&max-results=500

That's all done.

NOTE: You don't have to update your sitemap, After every each post you make on your blog, It's update automatically after any post you make. 
When posts are more than 500 on your blog just do this...

Sitemap: http://yourblogname.blogspot.com/atom.xml?redirect=false&start-index=501&max-results=500

#When you have exceeded 1000  Post, add another line of code.

Sitemap: http://yourblogname.blogspot.com/atom.xml?redirect=false&start-index=1001&max-results=500
#keep adding for every 500 posts you make.
