      Are there any tools (online preferably) which will take a sitemap.xml file and generate a visual site map? Seems like an obvious thing to do, but can't find any simple tools for this?

        A quick google on "visual sitemap" gave the following URL:
        http://www.powermapper.com/products/mapper/index.htm

        Seems to be what you are looking for? I do not have any experience with it I must admit.

          Rasmus,

          They one you have provided does not allow you to generate a graphical sitemap from the XML file so it's pretty useless when scanning website with 1000+ dynamic URLs and power mapper does not have an option to ignore /categories or /page=  alike.

          • If I'm using a compressed sitemap (sitemap.xml.gz) that's the URL that gets submitted to webmaster tools, correct?
