A1 Sitemap Generator and XML Sitemaps Ping
XML sitemaps protocol and pinging
First appearing in Google sitemaps and later in XML Sitemaps Protocol, sitemap ping is a way to inform search engines that you have updated your XML sitemap files. Pinging is not required for search engines to discover changes in XML sitemaps, but it will speed the process.
Ping XML sitemap changes to search engines
Some sitemap generator tools have builtin support for pinging. In this tutorial we use A1 Sitemap Generator as can be seen from the screenshot.
To add Google, Yahoo, Ask, MSN/Live and MoreOver, click the Add common pings button. If you have scanned a website and generated an XML sitemap, A1 Sitemap Generator will automatically generate correct ping URLs for you. It is possible to add more sitemap ping URLs if wanted. When you are done, click the Ping now button.

I use this tool for my site http://www.lyricsvideo.net, but it is not activated. It’s better to use Google Webmaster tool.

First time you submit, you need to validate the XML Sitemap in Google Webmaster Tools for sitemap pings to have effect.
