You should add it in these few steps:

1. Go to Google Webmasters Tools
2. Add your website
3. Verify the website (follow the steps or google for 'google verify website')
4. Open the website details (dashboard)
5. Click Siteconfiguration > Sitemaps
6. Add a sitemap. It will popup a small box with a textbox; type sitemapseo.aspx in the textbox
7. Click Send Sitemap. The small box will disappear and a line will be displayed with a small clock.

That's it!

Google will now verify the sitemap and will display the number of pages that are in the sitemap.

You can configure the contents of the sitemap by setting the values (true or false) for the following Settings from nopcommerce > Admin > Configuration > All Settings
SEO.Sitemaps.IncludeCategories  
SEO.Sitemaps.IncludeManufacturers  
SEO.Sitemaps.IncludeProducts  
SEO.Sitemaps.IncludeTopics  
SEO.Sitemaps.OtherPages

Thank you very much

I have got this error after I have submitted our nopcommerce sitemap to google:

We encountered an error while trying to access your Sitemap. Please ensure your Sitemap follows our guidelines and can be accessed at the location you provided and then resubmit.

We have the right location and the sitemaps works, what can this mean??
