Hello,
The first time I ran the XML sitemap tool it was going great but I got to about 20,000 links and it came to a halt. I did more reading and since my site is WordPress I put in the recommended exclude files to reduce links. Now whether I use the exclude paths or not the tool finds about 200 links, but looking at the sitemap tab many other links fail. The problem is I don’t know why they fail? They all seem to be valid links. My site is www dot hotmommagossip dot com in case your interested. Seems strange that it found so many links the first time but now I can’t get the tool to work properly? Any thoughts?
Best,
B.
