Have you validated your sitemaps lately?

Have you validated your sitemaps lately?

Be sure to use a handful of free online validation tools including in your Bing, Google and Yandex Webmaster Tools suites to verify that the search engines are able to read your website sitemaps correctly.

I often get asked why I support Bing and Yandex as much as I do here on thisismyurl and the answer is simple, Google might be king but billions (that’s a b) of people choose Yandex and Bing as their search engine every month. So I compare it to fast food restaurants, just because most people prefer McDonald’s for their fast food, doesn’t mean you should ignore Burger King customers.
