Get the sitemap of Blogger and Blogspot blogs

Problem:

I want to get or generate the xml sitemap of my Blogger.com or Blogspot blog.

I am using these sitemaps for Google Search Console, Bing Webmaster Tools, and other webmaster tools.

Solution:

The good news is that blogger already generates these sitemaps for you. For your own blog, use the following pages at the root level of your blog's domain: "sitemap.xml" and "sitemap-pages.xml".

For example, this blog's URL is grammarofdev.blogspot.com, so its sitemaps can be found at

Now that you know your Blogger weblog's sitemap URLs, you can submit those URLs to the webmaster tools of your liking. For example, here's what the sitemaps above look like after being successfully submitted to Bing Webmaster Tools:

Rookie Blogger+AdSense mistake...

In a bit of a "duh" moment, I learned the hard way that the "Earnings" link, available to new Blogger blogs, shouldn't be used to sign up for AdSense until the blog has some stuff in it. Otherwise your AdSense account will be disallowed due to a "Terms of Service violation": insufficient content!

Not really a "How-To" reminder, but a "How-Not-To" tidbit, in case any other newbies out there notice that link and attempt to try it out too early, just like I did, lol.
