Where do I put the sitemap xml file on my site?

[bmorrow]

I have created a sitemap xml document and know that I have to load it to my site. How exactly do I do that? Copy the text and paste into a new page, then publish?

You can use either BlueFTP (within BlueVoda) or your Control Panel to copy the sitemap.xml file to your public_html/ directory of the specific website the sitemap was created for (in cPanel, use FILE MANAGER > UPLOAD tool).

Don't forget to place a simple text link in the footer of your Index page to the file for the Search Engines to follow, and it's best to place over it a transparent shpe to prevent Visitors from clicking on it ... it is intended for the SE's only.
It can be simply seen as XML and hyperlinked similar to http://www.YourDomain.com/sitemap.xml
