How do you generate your site map?

How important is a good site map to SEO?

How do you guys generate your site maps?

If there is an old thread about this, please link me to it, I tried the search function, but I'm probably not very good at it.

I've used some free online tools. They're ok, but I'm not sure I'm using the best one. ( I use the first one of this delicious search http://delicious.com/search?p=create...l_icio_us&lc=0 )

Does DW have an XML site map generator?

Have any of you used Google's Python site map generator? It looks somewhat complicated to use if you've never work w/ python (like me), but is it worth it to work through it?

thanks for the help!

With Site maps, you can automatically keep us informed of all of your current pages and any updates you make to those pages.

not what, but how

i understand what it's for

but how do you make one

i've used xmlsitemaps.com, but i don't know if that's the best solution... i would like to hear from people who've used the google generator, since, to me, it seems complicated to use, but if it's far superior to other stuff, i may learn it

i hear you can also use your rss feed as a site map

do you have more than 1 site map?

1 for google sitemap... it's very easy & fast !

This one is also a good sitemap generator for Google - http://www.sitemapbuilder.net/

The best way to see if its a good sitemap is to review it manually to check if all your pages are included.

There are lots of website available on net you just need to googling with XML site map generate.

In general, there are two types of sitemaps. The first type of sitemap is a HTML page listing the pages of your site - often by section - and is meant to help users find the information they need. While this type of sitemap can help both visitors and search engines navigate your site, it's different from an XML Sitemap - usually called Sitemaps, with a capital S - are a way for you to give Google information about your site.
