…You can ping Live.com with the following URL example:

http://webmaster.live.com/ping.aspx?siteMap=http://www.YourDomainName.com/sitemap.xml

Notice that your “sitemap” needs to be in xml format.

I tried this myself and here is what their server send back:

<html xmlns=”http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml

<head>

<title>Sitemap Generator - Live Search Webmaster Tools</title>
</head>

<body>Thanks for submitting your sitemap.</body>

</html>
