I purposely removed the option on Actinic 7 to not display the sitemap on our website, but have submitted the urllist.txt to yahoo, and sitemap.xml file to google webmaster tools and MSN Live Webmaster Tools.

My question is am I holding back by not having a sitemap file on the website, i have around 95% of pages indexed by Google according to my webmaster tools stats.

I just was curious if it is better to have the sitemap.html file on the site as well?

Thanks.

Don't forget to include the human vistor in your ruminations.

When i visit sites i use the sitemap when available - normally when the search facility is rubbish (actinic and non actinic sites)

Thanks.

Have created a sitemap.html file on the website now.

Is there an ACT Template file I can mod to make the sitemap.html easier on the eye?

Just IMO it looks kinda naff :)

You could outline what you wish to do to it for starters.

Ideally I just want the Sitemap list to be more uniformed with the site.
So i can create some extra css styles to use to "spice up" the sitemap page.
