Thanks for that comment A.Ah

We just added a sitemap to google. We did try to validate it using the online free tool http://apps.gotdotnet.com/xmltools/...or/default.aspx
and got no errors but with a 'No Validation Performed' message. We are wating for the Google crawler to tell us about any errors with the xml file
Maybe if you guys see an obvious problem you can let us know

Thanks once again

Hey that auto generator is pretty cool. I wanted to create a sitemap for my site but it was just a pain to do everything from scratch. With this tool all that is gone! Thanks for the links people

The only problem with this one is the time out error eWeb timed out after about 500 pages lol...there was this other one i like..if i come across it ill post it here

I found one, it looks like the best one around. Why? Easy

1 - It has PR7, which tells me something
2 - It is listed in google staff's space
3 - Because I say so

Enjoy: http://www.sitemapspal.com/
