      Is it possible to generate an XML sitemap for a site without PHP? If so, how?

        Have a look at this Screaming Frog

        http://www.screamingfrog.co.uk/seo-spider/

        Its one of the best tools to use for creating sitemaps in our opinion.

            From what I can tell the first site you listed only works with PHP. Otherwise I would definitely go with that.

            I'm sure I can find something to work out of the giant list from your second link. Thanks!

              HI Jeffrey,

              I am always generating the XML sitemap with : http://www.xml-sitemaps.com/

              Also, you can see some sitemap generators on the following link: https://code.google.com/p/sitemap-generators/wiki/SitemapGenerators

              I hope it helped,

              Cheers!

                This site has a free generator that crawls your site to generate the map.

                    Sitemap error in Webmaster tools - 409 error (conflict)

                    Hey guys, I'm getting this weird error when I submit my sitemap to Google. It says I'm getting a 409 error in my post-sitemap.xml file (https://cleargear.com/post-sitemap.xml). But when I check it, it looks totally fine. I am using YoastSEO to generate the sitemap.xml file. Has anyone else experienced this? Is this a big deal? If so, Does anyone know how to fix? Thanks EwTswL4

                    Bing Webmaster Shows Domain without WWW

                    One of our sites shows thousands of 301 redirects due to domain without www in Bing Webmaster under crawl Information page. It’s been like this for a long time. None of the internal pages have domain without www, it was tested through Screaming Frog. We do have www preference set in google webmaster, but unfortunately bing doesn’t have this option.  We also specify URL with www preference through structural data, but that still doesn’t help. Did anyone have similar problems with Bing, and how did you resolve it?

                    Does Google index XML files?

                    Does Google or other search engines include XML files in their index? More specifically, I am wondering how Google knows the difference between an xml filetype and an RSS feed.

                    How do I create a Video Sitemap for Youtube Embedded Videos?

                    I've been seeing a lot of people recommend creating a video sitemap or Media RSS feed (mRSS) and submit to Google.  We have videos hosted on Brightcove and most on YouTube.  Brightcove can generate the sitemap for us.  But does anyone know how to generate a YouTube Video Sitemap for those videos embedded on our pages? Note:  I realize I could manually assemble the video sitemap, however manually assembling the sitemap is probably not an option for us due to the volume of videos we've published.
