Usage:

1. Pull up a terminal or SSH into the target server.

2. Logon as root

sudo -i

3. Download the script.

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/clusterednetworks/submit_sitemap_to_search_engines.sh

4. Edit the url to your sitemap you wish to submit to google to match your environment.

   wget -O- https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/ping?sitemap=https://www.clusterednetworks.com/sitemap.xml
   

5. BING requires you to encode the url you submit to them using a URL encoding tool (see https://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/dencoder/ ) you will have to use the encoder to obtain the proper URL you submit to BING. In my case it was as follows

   wget -O- https://www.bing.com/ping?sitemap=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.clusterednetworks.com%2Fsitemap.xml
   

6. Save the file

7. Make the script executable

./submit_sitemap_to_search_engines.sh

9. Setup a cronjob to run the script daily/weekly if you choose.

   1 1   * * * /etc/submit_sitemap_to_search_engines.sh >/dev/null 2>&1
