If you no longer want to use an existing sitemap associated with your website, you can easily delete it using the Sitemap Manager located in the Hosting Control Center.

To Delete a Sitemap in the Hosting Control Center

  1. Log in to your Account Manager.
  2. Click Web Hosting.
  3. Next to the hosting account you want to use, click Launch.
  4. Click the Sitemaps icon in the Content section of the Hosting Control Center. This action opens the Sitemap Manager.
  5. Select the sitemap you want to update. By selecting multiple sitemaps, you can delete them all at once.
  6. Click the Delete icon.

    NOTE: If you do not have a sitemap, or have received an error, the Delete icon will not be enabled.

  7. Click OK.

Your sitemap is deleted.

NOTE: This action only deletes the sitemap file. Any URLs that were collected prior to deletion will remain available if you create a new sitemap for this domain.
