 * Hey all,
 * Not sure if this is something that I should be concerned about but WMT is telling
   me that there are 75 errors in my sitemap (557 submitted, 450 indexed). All of
   the errors are on ‘sub-sitemaps’ under the ‘index’ sitemap such as ‘sitemap-pt-
   events-2014-08.xml’. The error that I’m receiving is ‘Missing XML Tag’, and when
   I view the link that is causing the error there are no pages within it. However,
   as far as I can tell all the pages that I actually want to index (plus some that
   I don’t) are being indexed under ‘sitemap-misc.xml’.
 * Basically, all I need to know is whether this is something I should just ignore?
 * Thanks heaps in advance,
 * Will
