Sitemap Generator – TalkMunich.com

August 25th, 2008

A sitemap generator is a much needed tool for a website with a lot of content.  Getting this right is actually more important than many people think as Google follows the sitemap and omits anything not included in it.  For TalkMunich I will require such a tool but need to create it myself as I do not like trusting other companies’ software.  Being able to tweak your own code is a big advantage and allows a level of flexibility that you would not normally get with code written by others.  I suspect that writing your own sitemap generator is a useful process as it allows you to nicely parse those files which contain the links you really want to follow as opposed to unimportant links.  I am aware of course that some sitemap generator tools allow you to use regular expressions to produce an exclude filter, but nevertheless, creating your own software tool means yo need to increase your understanding to a significantly more illuminating depth.

I can make my tool available for free to anyone who wishes to use it.
