In this video, you'll learn how to create a site map of your Website using CoffeeCup Google SiteMapper. First, enter your domain name in the required field and click Next. The video will explain the information on the Processing Files and Site Map Results pages. When it has finished mapping your site, Google SiteMapper will show you your directory structure and allow you to edit the properties of your files and change the output folder for your site map.

You can upload these files using an external FTP client of your choice, or using the built-in FTP client, as is shown in the video. The video will provide a brief overview of how to add a new server profile and will walk you through the uploading process. The final step of creating a site map is submission. Clicking the Star icon brings you to the Google Site Map Submission page on CoffeeCup's Website. Enter your e-mail address and your site map URL. When you're finished, click Submit.
