JCIZZO  I've been using sitemap automator for a while now and must say I am quite pleased with it. before, I would upload and submit my sitemaps manually and it took me a very long time. especially since I have several different websites. sitemap automator saves me a bunch of time, and I find it extremely easy to use.

GREGJSMITH  After getting to about 47 pages of my mac.com homepage, CPU activity jumps to 100% and the program seems to freeze.

PLEVINE  Hi Greg,

Send your site over to me at http://www.ragesw.com/support/ and I will get this fixed for you ASAP.

It is probably due urls being redirected improperly or in a way that RAGE Google Sitemap Automator does not understand.

AMBERV  This application has some serious flaws. The first is that you cannot save your settings. Spent half an hour making an elaborate set of filters, and forty-five minutes crawling your site applying them? Too bad, next time you need to make a sitemap, you have to start all over.

Second serious error, you create a few obvious filters, crawl the site and go get some coffee -- take a lunch if you maintain a huge site like I do. Then get back and smack your forehead at a missed filter. No problem, you think, I'll just add it and -- Oh ... you realise as the screen pops back to step two that you'll now have to re-crawl the whole site just to add a filter. Never mind that a filter is something that programmatically is extremely simple to run against an extant list! We have to crawl again -- and I hope you did not just hit "add another filter" in a reactionary manner without taking exhaustive notes on every single idea for a filter that you might have had, because you list of results is Gone.

That pretty much sums it up. I guess if you have a 70 page web site where 95% is just static literature, this tool might be Really Awesome, but for anyone that has to maintain a constantly shifting, 10,000+ page website. Ha.

Go find another tool. You should not be charging $30. Period.

PLEVINE  Filters are saved within your sitemap Project file. So, next time you wish to scan your web site go to File->Open and select your sitemap project file from Documents/Google SItemap Automator Maps/ and select your project file. Your filters will still be there ready for your next scan.

As for editing existing filters without having to re-scan, this is a feature we would like to add to a future release soon.

If you have anymore feedback, feel free to send it to us at http://www.ragesw.com/support/

OCEANCUBED  Or even go to Google direct:

https://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps/login?continue=%2Fwebmasters%2Fsitemaps%2Fsiteoverview%3Fhl%3Den%26msg%3D1&hl=en

You will need a Google id, if you a GMail account use that!

$29.95, ha, they are having a laugh!!

PLEVINE  Because RAGE Google Sitemap Automator;

1) Is much, much faster

2) Lets you assign custom filters to automatically set the priority, last modification date, and frequency attributes for you so you do not have to go through every single page yourself

3) It is actively developed and improved

4) It works natively on your Mac

5) You can edit previously created sitemaps easily

And Most importantly it comes with unlimited support
