    Of course I have a wordpress powered site.

    But here is my qustion....yes I know the XML Sitemap PLug-in buids a sitemap at /sitemap.xml

    Would it be better to build a static page at that location....or use xml-sitemaps.com to build one then load it up?

    Or does the plug-in do a fantabulous job?

    this doesnt have to be an xml format

    use a .txt, and simply list your urls

    search for xenu this will crawl your pages, and create a .txt sitemap for you, there is no limit to the number of pages it crawls, plus yuo get a good idea of the link structure and broken links

    The plugin is pretty well rounded and does a good job. I've had good success with it and I know others have as well. It's my preferred method.
