 * I have created sitemap and submitted it to google through webmaster tools. It
   is showing few errors after some time.
 * Paths don’t match
    We’ve detected that you submitted your Sitemap using a URL
   path that includes the www prefix (for instance, [http://www.example.com/sitemap.xml](http://www.example.com/sitemap.xml)).
   However, the URLs listed inside your Sitemap don’t use the www prefix (for instance,
   [http://example.com/myfile.htm](http://example.com/myfile.htm)).
 * But i have redirected [http://www.domain.com](http://www.domain.com) to domain.
   com and it is permanent
 * I m not able to understand the problem so i asked another person – he told that`"
   this is an error with the sitemap plugin on your website, you need to contact
   the sitemap owners as i dont offer support for other peoples plugins. "`
 * Would u please help me
 * My Site – submissionsworld.com

 * I don’t know if this helps your instance, but I had this same error. I traced
   it to me using pages to divert to external URLs (in my case, another site I own)
   using the “Page Links To” plugin. The problem therefore was that two domains 
   were showing up in my sitemap, but of course Google only wants and authorizes
   one.
 * To rectify, I excluded from the sitemap generation options the specific page 
   IDs that were set up as links.
 * If you click on the “See Sitemap” link in Google Webmaster tools (or download
   a copy manually) you can see what it’s trying to index. If any domains that are
   not on the primary domain show up, that could be the problem.
 * As I said, I’m not sure if this applies to your instance, but perhaps it might
   provide a place to look.
