Google offers free sitemap creation tools, so do not worry if your hosting website does not offer you any software. Sitemap is not a hindrance to submit your blog on Google Webmasters. Google gives importance to blog directories to pull results, so submit your blog on these directories first, and do not forget to ping your blog when you update it. Feed Shot is a good website to submit your blog on main blog directories.
