What is the actual purpose of the start crawler function?

[cbaur09]

Hi,
when I hit start crawler on the sitemap pannel in bluevoda builder what is the function actually doing? Just need some clarification for general purposes.

Also, when I want to resubmit my pages to google do I have to re-sitemap them from bluevoda or do I just hit resubmit on google's webmaster dashboard pannel?

Thanks,
Chris

1. A General would be able to talk about this.
However, conceptually, the crawler goes through your
website and gathers all pages and puts them in a nice format.

Examine your sitemap file and get familiarize with it.

2. You don't have to resubmit to Google. Once a month or so, its
crawlers come to you. If you keep resubmitting so very often,
the search engine might consider it SPAM.
