sitemap generator freeware
Looking for a great free sitemap generator? I was browsing some websites the other day and looking at their robots.txt files and many of them had a site map listed as
http://www.example.com/sitemap.xml.gz, the .gz file extension is a Linux compression utility format.

I’ve downloaded the app and used it and its very intuitive and works quite well. Did we mention that it was free? I mean how cool is that a powerful yet free sitemap generator.
