I have just published my website on two domain names and the sitemap has stopped working. You can see it here: https://stmartinslaw.nz/sitemap.xml but it cannot be read on Google Webmasters or SEO Audit tools.
Sitemap could not be read General HTTP error 1 instance We encountered an error while trying to access your Sitemap. Please ensure your Sitemap follows our guidelines and can be accessed at the location you provided and then resubmit. ExamplesHTTP Error:301
Error in SEO Audit tool: ### This website cannot be crawled Will not follow more than 10 redirects
I’m also having this issue and emailed Webflow support with a video showing what’s happening. This screenshot shows what I see in Google Search Console:
Hello @Webflow support
I have come across a similar issue
Sitemap could not be read
General HTTP error - 1 instance
We encountered an error while trying to access your Sitemap. Please ensure your Sitemap follows our guidelines and can be accessed at the location you provided and then resubmit.
Thanks for following up! I eventually got this answer from Webflow support:
“The issue looks to be occurring as the root domain has been selected as the default, however your DNS is configured to load the website at the www subdomain. So Google would be having a redirect issue with crawling the root domain.”
