Creating a sitemap

[jgmayes]

what is the best place to go to create a xml sitemap? I have used xml-sitemap.com but it only does 500 pages. Any suggestions?

Does a sitemap have value on the SEO front?

Hi Jason, When people think of site maps, they often think of XML sitemaps that contain a link to every page on your website. But for the purposes of planning a site, a visual site map can be very helpful. By drawing even a simple sketch of your site and the sections you would like to have on it, you can be sure that you capture everything about your website that you need to be sucessful.

There are list of some xml sitemap creating tools:

1.Web-site-map

2. Sitemap Automator.

3. XSitemap.

4.Sitemap Generator

5.Make a Sitemap

For more details please refer to the below list also:

I hope that your query had been solved.

If your website is dynamic (database driven) then you can generate the sitemap using programming language. This way you are always up to date - whenever you add new page it's automatically added to the sitemap - no need to run external application every time that happens.

I'm soon going to be recording a video tutorial on how to do it with PHP and DomDocument.
