GOOGLE-SITEMAPGEN(1) General Commands Manual GOOGLE-SITEMAPGEN(1)
NAME
google-sitemapgen -- simple script to automate production of sitemaps for a webserver
SYNOPSIS
google-sitemapgen [--testing] [--help] [--config=config.xml]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the google-sitemapgen command.
This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.
google-sitemapgen is a program that automatically produces sitemaps for a webserver, in the Google Sitemap Protocol (GSP). Sitemap files
are XML listings of content you make available on your web server. The files can be directly submitted to search engines as hints for the
search engine web crawlers as they index your web site. This can result in better coverage of your web content in search engine indices,
and less of your bandwidth spent doing it.
OPTIONS
--config=config.xml
Specify the location of the configuration config.xml
--testing Used to test the sitemap generator configuration.
--help Display a summary of options and exit.
