[Plugin: Google XML Sitemaps] Please add yandex search engine

Do they have an english site?

Hi,

I think that this was requested before, but I’ve checked their site and didn’t find any option to “ping” them. Maybe they support the sitemaps protocol but not the notification, so there is nothing more to do for the plugin.

In this case enable the “robots.txt” feature and Yandex should be able to discover the sitemap by itself.

Main site – yandex.ru (webmaster section on russian only but I can give you info)
PING URL (RPC2 protocol): https://ping.blogs.yandex.ru/RPC2

What info you needed?

Hi,

that looks like the “normal” blog ping, which you can already use from WordPress itself ??

I didn’t find any information about the sitemaps protocol there…

Protocol: Weblogs.Ping (https://www.weblogs.com/api.html)
Address: https://ping.blogs.yandex.ru/RPC2
Method: weblogsUpdates.ping (weblogname, weblogurl, changesurl=weblogurl, xmlurl=weblogfeedurl, categoryname=”none”) returns struct;
PING EXAMPLE INFO:

POST /RPC2 HTTP/1.1
Host: ping.blogs.yandex.ru
Content-Type: text/xml
Content-length: 318

<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?>
<methodCall>
<methodName>weblogUpdates.ping</methodName>

Info from: https://blogs.yandex.ru/pings/info/

Hi,

you can just go in your WP admin panel > Settings > Writing > and enter https://ping.blogs.yandex.ru/RPC2 in the “Update Services” list. This will tell WordPress to ping Yandex after you wrote something.

The ping function for XML sitemaps is something different, and it doesn’t look like Yandex supports it. For example, thats how the URL looks for Google:

https://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps/ping?sitemap=http:%3A//www.domain.com/sitemap.xml

Need you more info?

I give all info, you don’t include yandex? ??

Hi 1nSane,

the plugin already supports everything yandex supports ?? Yandes should find the sitemap file by itself using the robots.txt.

The ping function works with WordPress directly, just add it to the list of ping services as I wrote above. Yandex doesn’t support the sitemap ping like Google, Yahoo, Bing and Ask.com do so there is nothing more for the plugin todo.

Greetings,

Arne

I know but in one of my blog news add directly in base and no ping and RSS ?? I manually start Google XML Sitemaps and it send new sitemap to search engines… but not to Yandex and this engine not index my site but in Google many indexed pages yet… ?? thanks for reply
