Sitemap Ping Submission
When your sitemap is updated, these are the URLs to ping the search engines (replace [your sitemap web address] with your URL):
but many search engines don't seem to actually accept ping submissions this way.
http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/ping?sitemap=[your sitemap web address]- Yahoo
http://search.yahooapis.com/SiteExplorerService/V1/updateNotification?appid=YahooDemo&url=[your sitemap web address]- MSN Live Search
http://webmaster.live.com/ping.aspx?siteMap=[your sitemap web address]- Ask
http://submissions.ask.com/ping?sitemap=[your sitemap web address]- moreover
http://api.moreover.com/ping?u=[your sitemap web address]
<searchengine_URL>/ping?sitemap=sitemap_url but many search engines don't seem to actually accept ping submissions this way.

Thanks for the info, help me figure out how to write script that updates the sitemaps automatically as my site changes.
Your site seems to be running an Apache server with PHP installed; one can have the server generate the xml sitemap when requested with real-time modification dates/times on such a set up. Specific solutions depend on whether or not your site uses some sort of content management system (CMS), or is simply static files. If you'd like me to assist in your specific configuration, contact me directly. If you have more general questions that would be relevant to other people too, comment here.
Thanks David, the site actually has a lot of dynamic content, so that's what I use the scripts for.
