 * Yoast generates a bunch of XML sitemaps. 10 in my case. Now I go to Google Webmasters
   and they want to know where “the” sitemap is on my site. I have to enter TEN 
   sitemaps. Is that right???

 * Hi lwoods,
 * Yoast generates a ‘main sitemap’ (usually [http://yoursite.com/sitemap_index.xml](http://yoursite.com/sitemap_index.xml))
   that contains all other sitemaps.
 * Just submit that sitemap to Google Webmaster Tools and all other sitemaps will
   be submitted!
 * Hope this helps 😉

 * hmmm … in my case I have 5 different sitemaps … not a single sitemap_index.xml.
 * Where do you get this single one from?
