          I am trying to generate a site map for my site nationalcurrencyvalues.com but all the tools I have tried don't get all my 70000 html pages...   I have found that the one at check-domains.com crawls all my pages but when it writes the xml file most of them are gone... seemingly randomly.

          I have used this same site before and it worked without a problem.  Can anyone help me understand why this is or point me to a utility that will map all of the pages?

          Kindly,

          Greg

            Thank you all for the responses... I found them all helpful.  I will look into creating my own sitemap with the IIS tool.

            I can't help the 70k pages but the URLS are totally static.  I guess I can make a site map for all the aspx pages and then other one for all the lowest level .html pages.

            Thanks everyone!

              I definitely agree with Logan. The max for an XML sitemap for Search Console is 50,000 URLs, so you won't be able to fit all of yours into one.

              That being the case, divide them into different sitemaps by category or type, then list all of those in one directory sitemap and submit that. Now you can see indexation by page type on your website.

              Finally, I have to ask why you are doing this with a third party tool and creating a static sitemap as opposed to creating a dynamic one that can update automatically when you publish new content? If your site is static and you're not creating new pages, then your approach might be ok, but otherwise I'd recommend investigating how you build a dynamic XML sitemap that updates with new content.

              Cheers!

                Looking at your site how sure are you that you need 70,000 pages?

                For the sitemap I would stop trying to use a website and do it yourself. It looks like you are running IIS. They have a sitemap generator that you can install on a server easily and run it there. It looks like you have GoDaddy, they catch a lot of crap but I have always found their technical support to be top notch. If you can't figure out how to do it on the server I would give them a call.

                  Greg,

                  Have you tried creating multiple XML sitemaps by section of the site, like by folder or by product detail pages? 70,000 is a huge amount of URLs and even if you could get them all on one sitemap, I wouldn't recommend it. Nesting sitemaps into an index sitemap can help Google understand your site structure and make it easier for you to troubleshoot indexing problems should they arise.

                    Why some domains and sub-domains have same DA, but some others don't?

                    Hi I noticed for some blog providers in my country, which provide a sub-domian address for their blogs. the sub-domain authority is exactly as the main domain. Whereas, for some other blog providers  every subdomain has its different and lower authority. for example "ffff.blog.ir" and "blog.ir" both have domain authority of 60. It noteworthy to mention that the "ffff.blog.ir" does not even exist! This is while mihanblog.com and hfilm.mihanblog.com has diffrent page authority.

                    Should I include URLs that are 301'd or only include 200 status URLs in my sitemap.xml?

                    I'm not sure if I should be including old URLs (content) that are being redirected (301) to new URLs (content) in my sitemap.xml. Does anyone know if it is best to include or leave out 301ed URLs in a xml sitemap?

                    Substantial difference between Number of Indexed Pages and Sitemap Pages

                    Hey there, I am doing a website audit at the moment. I've notices substantial differences in the number of pages indexed (search console), the number of pages in the sitemap and the number I am getting when I crawl the page with screamingfrog (see below). Would those discrepancies concern you? The website and its rankings seems fine otherwise. Total indexed: 2,360 (Search Consule)
                    About 2,920 results (Google search "site:example.com")
                    Sitemap: 1,229 URLs
                    Screemingfrog Spider: 1,352 URLs Cheers,
                    Jochen

                    Why Google isn't indexing my images?

                    Hello, on my fairly new website Worthminer.com I am noticing that Google is not indexing images from my sitemap. Already 560 images submitted and Google indexed only 3 of them. Altough there is more images indexed they are not indexing any new images, and I have no idea why. Posts, categories and other urls are indexing just fine, but images not. I am using Wordpress and for sitemaps Wordpress SEO by yoast. Am I missing something here? Why Google won't index my images? Thanks, I appreciate any help, David xv1GtwK.jpg

                    How can I get a list of every url of a site in Google's index?

                    I work on a site that has almost 20,000 urls in its site map. Google WMT claims 28,000 indexed and a search on Google shows 33,000. I'd like to find what the difference is. Is there a way to get an excel sheet with every url Google has indexed for a site? Thanks... Mike

                    Best server-side sitemap generators

                    I've been looking into sitemap generators recently and have got a good knowledge of what creating a sitemap for a small website of below 500 URLs involves. I have successfully generated a sitemap for a very small site, but I’m trying to work out the best way of crawling a large site with millions of URLs. I’ve decided that the best way to crawl such a large number of URLs is to use a server side sitemap, but this is an area that doesn’t seem to be covered in detail on SEO blogs / forums. Could anyone recommend a good server side sitemap generator? What do you think of the automated offerings from Google and Bing? I’ve found a list of server side sitemap generators from Google, but I can’t see any way to choose between them. I realise that a lot will depend on the type of technologies we use server side, but I'm afraid that I don't know them at this time.

                    Can I dissavow links on a 301'd website?

                    So we are performing link removal for a client on his old website (A), which is being 301 redirected to his new website (B).  We have identified toxic links on site A and are removing, once complete we will undo the current 301, confirm a new GWT account for website A, and then submit the disavow report. We would then like to reapply the 301 redirect to site B while we are waiting for Google to process the disavow report, the logic being we can retain some current rankings on site B while waiting for the disavow to process on site A. Has anyone had experience with this method?  I foresee some potential issues here but am interested to here from others on this.  Thanks!

                    NOINDEX listing pages: Page 2, Page 3... etc?

                    Would it be beneficial to NOINDEX category listing pages except for the first page.  For example on this site: http://flyawaysimulation.com/downloads/101/fsx-missions/ Has lots of pages such as Page 2, Page 3, Page 4... etc: http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Aflyawaysimulation.com+fsx+missions Would there be any SEO benefit of NOINDEX on these pages?  Of course, FOLLOW is default, so links would still be followed and juice applied. Your thoughts and suggestions are much appreciated.
