If you have non-mobile content, create a separate Sitemap for those URLs. If the <mobile:mobile/> tag is missing, your mobile URLs won’t be properly crawled. URLs serving multiple markup languages can be listed in a single Sitemaps. Each Mobile Sitemap must have a unique name. If you use our Sitemap Generator to create your Mobile Sitemaps, you’ll need to create a separate config file for each Mobile Sitemap. what to do after it ? you have to simply submit this to the google,yahoo and msn search engines as the usual way but have to select the proper tabs as it is for mobile versions only.
