Submitting created sitemap to Search Engines

Easiest method of submitting the sitemap to search engine is via robots.txt . Simply add near the end of robots.txt :
Sitemap: https://www.jahajee.com/sitemap.xml
in my case I kept the name as sitemap.xml but you are free to give any name with xml extension. So when any crawler will crawl your robots.txt they will know the location of your sitemap and also crawl and index that.

The other method of submitting the created sitemap is using Search Engine Webmaster websites like Google Webmaster Tools to submit your sitemap. I highly recommend this because if your sitemap has any error then Google Webmaster will notify you.
You can login to your Google Webmaster and once your website is verified you can submit your sitemap under
Optimization => sitemaps . Click the "ADD/TEST SITEMAP".
You can test the sitemap and once all ok submit it to Google Webmaster. It will take Google Bot few days to crawl your sitemap and to add the webpages in its Index.
