Can anyone recommend a xml google sitemap tool that's free AND does over 500 pages online?
Cheers

I have been using one that I have gotten over 10,000 URLs indexed in the sitemap file. I think it works really well, and it is free. It is called gsitecrawler.

It doesn't run online, but runs as a program on your computer that indexes your site. It has some cool features and you can even pause the index and restart it later.

Hope that helps

Thanks sk,
I will check it out tomorrow. I run two forums and they are now way too big for usual online sitemap creators, I'll let you know how I get on

here are some online generators that google recommends.. http://code.google.com/p/sitemap-gen...emapGenerators

I suggest the xenu . It is very powerful.

You can search it in google : http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q...u&aqi=g7g-s1g2

Nice and useful link here. Thanks

it is free. It is called gsitecrawler. i like it very much.

very useful..thanks

thanks for the help guys... I'm trying out Gsitecrawler now... I had a self built script before but very hard to manage still..

I used a Joomla extension called Xamp to do my 500+ page sitemap.

so i started using Gsitecrawler... one problem I have is that the crawler keeps going in circles... i have links to the same pages on every page and it just keeps going and going... what should i do?

If it is a wordpress blog, then arnebrachhold's Google XML sitemap generator would be sufficient.

I second (or fifth) the GSitecrawler request.

It handles our site of ~2000 pages in about 15-20 minutes. I also have multiple links pointing to the same page and haven't had any problems with that.

There are many free online tools that can do the job for you. For instance, google some Third-party Sitemap tools. Although Google says explicitly that it has neither tested, nor verified them, they will be useful because it includes links to online generators, downloadable sitemap generators, sitemap plugins for popular content-management systems, etc., so you will be able to find exactly what you need.
hope hlep dude.

haven't create sitemap for a long time. . . But I guess I can google over the web and look for good one, I used http://code.google.com/p/sitemap-gen...emapGenerators along time ago, I bet there are new tools that better than that now.
