Sitemap.txt

Jim,

Does your generator write sitemap.txt files? Someone was asking me why I didn’t have a sitemap.txt on my front page. (I forgot to add the sitemap.html link with my last template update). Does it matter .txt or .html for visual sitemaps?

P.S Someone noticed that out of 1 million pages on Google, my site came up #25. You’re part of that accomplishment – Thanks

Thanks,

Roger

    Glad to be of help, and in fact, I see your site as number one in the results – Don’t you just love that when it happens

    I’ve never used a sitemap.txt file – Stick with the xml file and let Google and Yahoo know where your sitemap is located and you’ll be fine.

    Some if the higher traffic sites I have don’t include any sitemaps at all.

    Best regards,

    Jim.

    Jim,

    I think maybe if I had sitemap.html on the front page when he looked at it he wouldn’t have said anything and .txt is the form of sitemap he uses. With my site colors, if someone opens a .txt file it could be annoying.

    What search engine and search term are you using to see my site as number one?

    Thanks,

    Roger
