    Yes, there are many ways to create Sitemaps for your site.
    Well, its not necessary to make an .xml based sitemaps for your website. You can create one simple html based sitemap page containing all links to your website in well organized structure.
    In fact, if you're using any CMS or PHP based script for your site, then it might be easy to make an .xml sitemaps too.
    Kindly let me know, that you are using any CMS or not ?

    Are you using cms(Wordpress,Drupal...)?Many of these cms have own sitemap generator or you can install it as plugin.When you have static page,you can use also online sitemap generator(use google)

    Hi Pooja

    Hold on before starting on with the sitemap!

    There are certainties in generating the sitemap.
    Just check out a few things say, whether the site is Dynamic or Static?
    1. If the site is said to be a static one, then you could generate the sitemap with the help of free tools that are available online.
    2. If it's a dynamic site, probably you should try coding with the developers of your own in such a way that the URL's get generated dynamically.

    Also, there are two different types of sitemap.
    a) XML sitemap and b) HTML sitemap
    Both the sitemap differs one another in its functionality. So, it'd be better opting for both.

    Have a look at this: xml-sitemaps.com
    But have in mind that the free version is limited to 500 pages.
    I do not have any larger sites, so this worked perfectly for me...for years.
    For sure there is a number of other free tools online.......
    Last point, if your site is static and links are well organized you wont even need a sitemap as it will get crawled and indexed through the links themselves :)

    If you're on Wordpress, search for a plugin XML Sitemaps on WP plugins directory. It's a great plugin that not only creates a sitemap for your website, but also submits it to search engines like Google, Yahoo, Bing as well.

    http://www.xml-sitemaps.com/
    Use this for any of the site to generate sitemap.
    Than go into Google webmaster and test your sitemap.If its working submit it.
    For wordpress you can use several SEO as well as xml sitemap plugins for easy sitemap creation.

    Creating site map is good but there is some risk to crash your all database of the website so before implementing a site map pls take a back up of all data of your website.

    If you have wordpress website then it's very easy to submit sitemap you can see the plugin there that will help you to find sitemap or if you have html or any other website then first you generate the sitemap and submit it into the root directory.

    Use external sitemap instead of plugins/modules.

    Dear there are many online tools available online to create a sitemap. HTML and xml both types of sitemaps are important. Sitemap is just like roadmap,It shows all links available in your website. HTML sitemap is for user and .xml sitemap is for Google.
