What is a Sitemap?
A sitemap is a file (document) on your web server, either in XML or text format, that helps search engines like Google to spider your website. The sitemap contains a list of URLs, which should be indexed by the search engines.
Create XML and Text Sitemaps
for Search Engines
Website Analyzer allows you to create sitemaps with ease. First let the program spider your website to find all web pages. The report informs you about critical errors in your website, which needs to be fixed. Click on "Sitemap Generator" to create the sitemap in XML or text format. Use the XML format to submit your sitemap to e.g. Google search.
check The sitemap is sorted alphabetically in ascending order.
check The sitemap contains internal pages with content-type: text/html only.
check The sitemap does not contain duplicate content, e.g. if "/folder/index.html" equals "/folder/", then "/folder/" will be added to the sitemap.
check Add "Additional Includes" (subdomains or URI's), which are not within the website URI.
check Use the "Exclude URI" or "Blacklist URI" feature to exclude parts of your website from the sitemap.
