domain name vs www.domain name

Why does the sitemap for [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ] differ from [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ]?

[XML-Sitemaps Support]

Hello,

Sitemap Generator doesn't include links to www. and non-www domains in the same sitemap as it is disallowed by google sitemap protocol, since they are considered technically different domains.

I understand that [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ] is technically different from [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ], but I'm still not sure why when I generate my sitemap for [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ] and compare it to the sitemap for [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ] that they are different (one gives errors, the other not, one includes more pages while one "missed" some pages).

Any ideas?

Hello,

because sitemap generated for [ External links are visible to logged in users only ] includes ONLY the pages linked to [ External links are visible to logged in users only ].. and sitemap generated for [ External links are visible to logged in users only ] includes ONLY the pages linked to [ External links are visible to logged in users only ]..
So, if you have link like <a href="[ External links are visible to logged in users only ]">x</a>, it will be included in one sitemap, but not in another.

Okay.

I created a website but my host does not give me options (that I know of) of what goes where. I have my basic FTP directory where all my files go. I don't (seem to have) more control than that.

You say that "sitemap generated for [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ] includes ONLY the pages linked to [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ].. and sitemap generated for [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ] includes ONLY the pages linked to [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ].. "

Okay, but what am I to do as an end user? I used to think everything I FTP'ed went to [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ] and then was simply via cname also available under [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ]. If the LINKS are different, how do I control those or even begin to understand how to get which links under which - either www or without?? Can you understand my delema here - I still have some pages "missing" depending on what I give Google under sitemap generator - either with or without the www and I am trying to find out how I got my pages so mixed up -  NO, I am trying to figure out how to get Google to find all my pages.?

Hope you can help (and thanks for your clear answers thus far - I appreciate that.)
