Creating a Sitemap based on a text file back to top

A Sitemap should contain a list of your site's URLs - up to 50,000 of them. If you have a large site with more than 50,000 URLs, you should create multiple Sitemaps and submit a Sitemap index file <>.

You can provide Google with a simple text file that contains one URL per line. For example:

http://www.example.com/file1.html
http://www.example.com/file2.htmlFor best results, follow these guidelines:

You must fully specify URLs as Google attempts to crawl them exactly as provided.
Each text file can contain a maximum of 50,000 URLs. If you site includes more than 50,000 URLs, you can separate the list into multiple text files and add each one separately.
The text file must use UTF-8 encoding. You can specify this when you save the file (for instance, in Notepad, this is listed in the Encoding menu of the Save As dialog box).
The text file should contain no information other than the list of URLs.
The text file should contain no header or footer information.
You can name the text file anything you wish. Google recommends giving the file a .txt extension to identify it as a text file (for instance, sitemap.txt).
You should upload the text file to your server, generally to the highest-level directory you want search engines to crawl. Once you've created this file, you can submit it as a Sitemap. This process, while manual, is the simplest and is probably best if you're not familiar with scripting or managing your web server.

If you have multiple websites, you can simplify the process of creating and submitting Sitemaps by creating one or more Sitemaps that includes URLs for all your verified sites, and saving the Sitemap(s) to a single location. All sites must be verified in Webmaster Tools

I take it you want to provide Google with a site map that they will use to direct their bots and help improve your page ranks.

Their instructions offer you the option of building a sitemap using a program like the CoffeeCup Google Sitemapper, building your own xml file or a text file.

To build your text file, just visit your site, highlight the URL of each page, copy that and paste it into a text editor. It would start off something like this:

http://www.badgevideosurveillance.com/index.html
http://www.badgevideosurveillance.com/OURPRODUCTS.html
http://www.badgevideosurveillance.com/4CHSYSTEMS.html

Just continue an list every page on your site that you want to be sure is checked by the Google bots.

Thanks Bill,

So by creating a new text file on the desktop you just copy and paste every page name or title inside that text file?

Then what? do you save the text file with my site name and then upload that to google?

I have submitte a file screen shot of google site maps I submitted.
Is this work I did correct?

Did you upload the text file to Google? It looks like you entered 15 URLs as sites.

Look at the attached file and see where I circled the link to add the test file. I use the XML file generated by the CoffeeCup Site Mapper, but youi can create your own XML file or (according to Google) you can UPLOAD the text file for the site, and then when they verify, you will see that you have 15 URLs and one site.

I downloaded the trial coffeecup software and also this one at:
http://www.vigos.com/products/gsitemap/

The Vigos was used to just crawl our sites and then created an .XML file
I then used my host's ftp tools and uploaded the xml file to the public_html file directory. Named the file to (Sitemap.xml) Using the Capital "S" in the file name as google suggests and BINGO... Mission accomplished.

Google craweled both our sites and indexed the pages.... Now to wait a week for the stats to start showing up on a google web search...

I like the Coffeecup VERSION but need company approval to pay for it...
Not a bad program for only $29.00

Thanks Again Bill!!

You may also want to use the Google Analytics to get more information. I have just started using Analytics and it seems to provide a lot of informatrion.
