Hello,
I created a website: http://evaflint69.free.fr
I went on Google Webmaster tools.
And when I submit my sitemap, after 3 days I keep getting the same error:

We encountered an error while trying to access your sitemap. Please ensure that your sitemap conforms to the guidelines and that it is accessible at the location you specified. Then try again.

Here is my sitemap:

    Do something simpler like this:

    <urlset>
    <url>
    <loc>Link 1</loc>
    </url>
    <url>
    <loc>
    Link 2
    </loc>
    </url>
    <url>
    <loc>
    Link 3
    </loc>
    </url>
    </urlset>
    </code>

    Good night

    I followed your sitemap and I have an error:

    Incorrect namespace
    The namespace is not correctly indicated in your index file or your sitemap.

    but given the coding of your pages, it won't go far ...

    Thanks for your response, bg 62, I will test if there's an error in the next indexing.
    I have 2 questions:
    1. Should I include my PDFs?
    2. Why do you say this: "but given the coding of your pages, it's not going to go very far..."? Does that mean the indexing won't work? And what’s wrong with my pages?

    Thanks.

    Basically, it means that you code poorly and that you need to improve

      the sitemap you posted is good! no problems
      pdf files can be indexed by Google, so they need to be optimized before going live, but they should not appear in the sitemap ...
      for the coding :
      there is already this:
      W3C !
      and then display your source code, you will quickly understand ...
      <title>HelpMeDoc - Home</title> 

      <meta name="google-site-verification" content="C10k3TAxhkuv8WMRVhCF7uDJ90UDAlM44hU9IlJb8bo" /> 

      for a site on 'free' ...
      etc etc etc ...
      and:
      HelpMeDoc is a small business

      ok but it doesn't look very professional on free ... a domain name would be much better!
      :)

    Hello,

    what do you mean by ndd? :)

    I'm making progress, I'm down to just 12 errors :)

    ndd = domain name ;)

    And if I may say so: be careful with spelling!
    bg62 already mentioned the "acceuil" in the title, but there are plenty of others.

    It doesn't inspire confidence to entrust an administrative file to a company that makes so many mistakes... :\

    Who do you suggest for the domain name?
    What is the best and especially the cheapest? With hosting if possible and 1 email address only.

    I recommend OVH, definitely don't go for 1&1; the domain name doesn't belong to you!

      1&1 the domain name does not belong to you

      ! since when ????
      I have been with them for several years, as have many acquaintances, and this problem has never arisen, on the contrary, we haven't had the kind of issues that occurred with the 60 plan from OVH!!!
      so we should stop the misinformation there, right?

        The misinformation is not something I created,

        Have you ever tried to cancel at 1and1 and transfer your domain name before talking about misinformation all the time?

        The answer is NO

        Because if you had made the request, you would have noticed that there would have been a little issue regarding your domain names ;)

    http://forum.lesarnaques.com/internet-probleme-fai-hebergeur/compte-1and1-bloque-aucune-meditation-possible-t26377.html

    A very satisfied person, on my side wanting to recover my domain from 1and1 I received a nice PDF:

     Your domain name is currently in the destruction phase under the status "REDEMPTION-PERIOD." In this state, it is still possible for 1&1 Internet to make a request to attempt to recover your domain and thus reactivate it. The recovery of your domain under this "REDEMPTION-PERIOD" status will be charged to you at €50 excluding tax (i.e. €59.80 including tax). Please fill out and send us this document so that we can consider your request and attempt to reactivate your domain. 1&1 cannot guarantee the recovery of your domain; if the operation is not possible, you will not be charged for it. This document serves as a quote for processing your order. It will also allow a company to justify the invoicing of €50 excluding tax for the recovery of your domain. In the case of payment by cheque, we kindly ask you to send this document along with your payment to the address indicated below, after confirmation of the reactivation of your domain.


    Long live 1and1 as you say

    60 euros to recover a domain name in redemption period IT'S THEFT!!

    Simple and pure

    And I'm just showing you WHAT I remember, not all the other problems alongside.

    So please STOP the misinformation about me being the one spreading lies!!

      that's right ... a post from July 28, 2007!!!
      and it concerns people who do not respond to warnings or payment requests and then come to complain!!!
      kudos to the grumpy ones!
      roll over a nail and screw the nail....
      by the way, I’d like to point out that the DISINFO also comes from the fact that the subject of the post is " Sitemap error on google webmaster " so if you have scores to settle, do it elsewhere or in another post please!!!

    It's not me who comes to settle scores here, it's you ;)

    I'm just giving a piece of advice based on my own experience, therefore it's not disinformation

    as you say ... I will never be able to discuss with a stone !!!
    bye and no more response ...
    I just got off the phone with the different services of 1&1 (it’s free!) and if you really have a problem of this kind, while being fully within your rights, you can contact them by email or by phone, everything is free and quick as you can see ....
    here is the link that will provide you with all the contact details to reach them:
    contact 1&1
    I was also informed that CCM is not a platform for promotion or denigration and that consequently what you have left to do is simply to get in touch ... it only takes a few minutes!
