If you're using WordPress you can use this plugin: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/google-sitemap-generator/ If you're not using WordPress, you can use one of the following tools to generate your sitemap (some might not be free for 20,000 urls): http://www.xml-sitemaps.com http://gsitecrawler.com http://www.freesitemapgenerator.com http://sitemapwriter.com http://makeasitemap.com http://web-site-map.com
if you will use free then it will tough to you, i don't know about any tool who will provide you a XML sitemap of2,000 url, you have to make it manually.
You can split your sitemap and submit. Here you can find some of best sitemap generators. http://code.google.com/p/sitemap-generators/wiki/SitemapGenerators
AS we know Google always give a preference to First 500 link. Now you have 2000 links in your website. Solution is You have to create 5 Sitemap.xml. If you have more then 2000 link then you can add more sitemap file 123456,7 till 500. In example http://www.example.com/sitemap1.xml ==> for first 500 links http://www.example.com/sitemap2.xml ==> for second next 500 links http://www.example.com/sitemap3.xml ==> for third next 500 links http://www.example.com/sitemap4.xml ==> for forth next 500 links Now put this links in main sitemap file (Sitemap.xml) with the help of this Sitemap sintex ----------------------------------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <sitemapindex xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9"> <sitemap> <loc>http://www.example.com/sitemap1.xml</loc> <lastmod>2004-10-01T18:23:17+00:00</lastmod> </sitemap> <sitemap> <loc>http://www.example.com/sitemap2.xml</loc> <lastmod>2005-01-01</lastmod> </sitemap> <sitemap> <loc>http://www.example.com/sitemap3.xml</loc> <lastmod>2005-01-01</lastmod> </sitemap> <sitemap> <loc>http://www.example.com/sitemap4.xml</loc> <lastmod>2005-01-01</lastmod> </sitemap> </sitemapindex> --------------------------- http://www.example.com/sitemap.xml Hope You got solution
