Re: Sitemap crawled but not pages in it

I have several variations of the xml schema that I use. Typically it is
identical to yours unless it is from third party vendors that I use for
huge data base sites.

Ex.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <urlset xmlns="http://www.google.com/schemas/sitemap/0.84"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.google.com/schemas/sitemap/0.84
http://www.google.com/schemas/sitemap/0.84/sitemap.xsd">

But to answer your question, yes your sitemap appears to be fine. You
can also validate it by searching for sitemap validation tool, I found
this one

I read an article this morning stating that google typically will index
your sitemap feed pages within 12 hours. Then display them in the
SERP's within another 12 hours. The question that I pose is: "Are your
pages optimized and is your competition fierce". It is one thing to be
in the index and another to get put in the SERP's.
