Our sitemap is not a sitemap for google submission. There are many free google sitemap generators out there which you can use. If you do a search for free sitemap generator you can use any of those to crawl your site and submit the sitemap to the search engines. -Eddie |

I use a program called gsitecrawler. Once you run the program and generate the sitemap, you will need to upload it to your file manager. Then submit your xml sitemap to G and Y.

Why can't you create one for us to submit or do we have to pay for it? |

It is for SEO purposes, Google will crawl the sitemap just fine, but the sitemap.aspx page is a list of all public-facing page links vs. an XML sitemap specifically tuned for use in Google/Yahoo/Live sitemap applications.
In reality, Google themselves state that if your page is linked-to and not restricted by robots.txt or a meta tag then submitting an xml sitemap will not generally cause your site to rank any better or be crawled faster than normal. Google Sitemaps are more specifically useful for pages that are otherwise hidden from your standard site navigation that you still want crawled. |
