What is Sitemap?
A sitemap or xml file is a text file containing all your website data including all the web pages and posts in your blog or website. Google or other search engines uses this
sitemap to crawl your website or blog. It is necessary to submit your blog's sitemap to Google webmaster tools so that google will index your latest posts and content in its database. You can access your default xml sitemap at http//yourblogaddress/sitemap.xml but this sitemap works only for 26 posts or pages of your blog. So don't submit this sitemap to Google Webmaster Tools.
