The Site Mapper 2.2

The Site Mapper is a generator tool written in VB.Net which crawls defined web sites and automatically creates an HTML and an XML site map.
The XML site map is in a standard format which can then be used to inform search engines of new and changed pages on your web site. The HTML site map is a list of your web pages which may be displayed in many formats and layouts.
The Site Mapper is simple to configure, has a built in scheduler to enable automatic generation of site maps and it ftps the maps to your site after generation.
You can use The Site Mapper on as many sites you want. The Site Mapper will follow the rules defined in your robots.txt file and will create both html site maps and xml maps.
The Site Mapper is a useful tool for webmasters who require a tool to generate an HTML / XML site map on a regular basis and also for anyone who needs an automatic method of informing search engines of new and changed pages.
The site designers who want to submit site information to search engines for their clients and in fact anyone who requires building an html map of their web site will find The Site Mapper very handy as well.
