      Re: Your Google Sitemap

      Thanks for the download prog ROR Generator, Now as I have two boxing gloves for hands how do I use it best?
      Do I for instance place the web pages of my site under construction and then they will be sorted or am I as usual barking up the wrong tree?
      Regards

        Re: Your Google Sitemap

        Don't stress, the first thing to do is get your site up and running. If your
        site is not done, ROR will have nothing to map out....Let's not try to put
        the horse before the cart.

        Steps to follow...

        1) Finish site
        2) Map site

          Thanks for the Sitemap link. Its easy to use.
          One question:
          Is 'FTP transfer' of the ror sitemap file to my Index folder all that I need to do to complete sitemap upload - anything else that I need to check?
          Regards

            Re: Your Google Sitemap

            Just upload the complete sitemap to your public_html and create a very discreet hyperlink to it
            from your home page. Google will do the rest.

            You can use BlueFTP to upload it. Click the below to learn more about BlueFTP.

                When I download the file and try to run it I keep getting a message telling me that the compressed file is invalid or corrupted!! I tried several times, and tried saving it under different names, but still get the same error.

                Please can you tell me what is wrong here?

                Regards,

                        You probably just got a bad download. Delete what you downloaded and try again.
