Hi, can anybody help with Google tools?

1. I´ve tried to sent sitemap to my Google account (webmaster tools) - link I put there is www.buythebest.eu/index.php?route=information/sitemap When I look to status in my Google account - I see errors.

2. It shows me also that file robots text wasn´t found (http://www.buythebest.eu/robots.txt - status 404 (file wasn´t found)

Help please. Thanks

Go into your admin panel, then go to EXTENSIONS > PRODUCT FEEDS
Install if necessary the google sitemap module
Then click EDIT next to it, select the status as enabled, then copy the URL in the DATA FEED URL box. This is the url you require for your google sitemap. Hit save, paste the url into google webmaster tools and you should be good to go :)

For the robots.txt issue, that's because it doesn't exist. You'll need to create one. Webmaster tools has a tool to help you create one. Then put that in your main directory
