I have got Google XML site map installed on my site for search engines and its working fine.

Now I want to add a site map on my site for visitors / viewers. Any suggestions on this.

If by sitemap you mean archives page, then you can search "archives plugins" on google

No that is not what I am asking.

I have already installed Google XML sitemap on my site for search engines. Now I want to create a Site Map for visitors. This is different than the one I have already created for the search engines (Google XML site map). That is I want now a page that provides a quick overview of everything on my site.

Hi cbnet, what you are needing is a HTML sitemap for your visitors. This is a simple html document which is probably best achieved using ul's. Example:

Code:

<ul>
<li><a href="http://yoursite.com/">Home Page</a></li>
<li class="c1">
<ul>
<li><a href="http://yoursite/secondlevelpage/">nameofpage</a></li>
<li class="c1">
<ul>
<li><a href="http://yoursite/secondlevelpage/thir...ofpage</a></li>
<li><a href="http://yoursite/secondlevelpage/thir...ofpage</a></li>
<li><a href="http://yoursite/secondlevelpage/thir...ofpage</a></li>
<li><a href="http://yoursite/secondlevelpage/thir...ofpage</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href="http://yoursite/secondlevelpage/">nameofpage</a></li>
<li class="c1">
<ul>
<li><a href="http://yoursite/secondlevelpage/thir...ofpage</a></li>
<li><a href="http://yoursite/secondlevelpage/thir...ofpage</a></li>
<li><a href="http://yoursite/secondlevelpage/thir...ofpage</a></li>
<li><a href="http://yoursite/secondlevelpage/thir...ofpage</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href="http://yoursite/secondlevelpage/">nameofpage</a></li>
<li class="c1">
<ul>
<li><a href="http://yoursite/secondlevelpage/thir...ofpage</a></li>
<li><a href="http://yoursite/secondlevelpage/thir...ofpage</a></li>
<li><a href="http://yoursite/secondlevelpage/thir...ofpage</a></li>
<li><a href="http://yoursite/secondlevelpage/thir...ofpage</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href="http://yoursite/secondlevelpage/">nameofpage</a></li>
<li class="c1">
<ul>
<li><a href="http://yoursite/secondlevelpage/thir...ofpage</a></li>
<li><a href="http://yoursite/secondlevelpage/thir...ofpage</a></li>
<li><a href="http://yoursite/secondlevelpage/thir...ofpage</a></li>
<li><a href="http://yoursite/secondlevelpage/thir...ofpage</a></li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><a href="http://yoursite.com/about/">About Us</a></li>
<li><a href="http://yoursite.com/contact/">Contact Us</a></li>
<li><a href="http://yoursite.com/privacy/">Privacy Policy</a></li>
<li><a href="http://yoursite.com/tos/">Terms of Service</a></li>
</ul>

Dependant on how many pages your site has you may need to split the sitemap over 2 or even 3 pages. Hope this points you in the right direction. Jim

Thanks

You want to create a HTML sitemap.

You can find tutorials many places (e.g. my signature, but otherwise just search Google)

If you are using WP there are plenty of plugins available. If it is hardcoded then you can hardcode your HTML sitemap.

Is it considered spam by the search engines if i interlink my other sites via links in a html sitemap?
