Google Custom Search Engine (CSE)

I am trying to use Google Custom Search Engine (CSE)

I cannot get the google custom search engine to index my site. it is looking for a sitemap. is there a page i should use as the sitemap?

also, it is not reading all the pages. I will do a search for an obvious keyword, one that it should find easily and it does not find it. is there a way to remedy this?

I am going to try a few new things, but if anyone has any insights, let me know.

thanks

A sitemap is something you create to help google index your pages. it is normally named sitemap.xml and is placed in your root directory.

See this link for more info. http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=40318&hl=en

It may also take quite a while before you get any results from your searches. Google does not index it right away. It takes time. If fact most of your pages may take a couple of months before they get indexed.
