Scan Website at Localhost and Create XML Sitemap

Check your webserver documentation on how to access your website on your own computer at http://localhost / http://127.0.0.1.

If your work computer with the website hosted is not a Windows machine, you will need to either:

• Run sitemapper program from another Windows computer within your local network. (Technically then, that is no longer localhost, but still quite close and often much faster than crawling websites online.)
• Run sitemap generator through Windows emulator software. For Linux, Wine is a good choice.

Popurlar webserver related products include:

• Webservers: Apache (Linux, Windows etc.), Xitami / X5 (Linux, Windows etc.) and IIS (Windows).
• Scripting languages: PHP (Linux, Windows etc.).
• Databases: MySql (Linux, Windows etc.).

If you encounter problems, you are recommended to:

• Test and get things working one at a time.
• Check search engines for tutorials and step-by-step guides.
• Ask in support forums. Many people regularly answer questions in these.
• Note: We can not offer direct support on these topics.

It is easy to set and override root path used in generated XML sitemaps.



Remember to build the sitemap files again after changing this setting.
