This site will (after you complete a simple form) create the .xml file for
you and you simply upload it to the root directory of your website. You
then need to add the sitemap URL through your Google Webmaster Account.

Anything else you need to know about is on that page and it is very straight
forward.

Hi James

Thanks for replying. I am still trying to learn the ropes with all this, and
I am going to ask prob a dumb question but where is the root directory?

It's where your home page (i.e. index.html page) normally lives.

Hi

I have found the home page and all the other pages in the file preview.I
take it, this is where it is suppose to be? I have very limited knowledge or
web in general but have learnt a lot.. I know with dreamweaver u do create a
root folder and then put your assets in etc, but from the way I hve been
using net objects I just started the site and just saved.. so should I have
also created a root folder.. or is the review folder ok to use for site
map..

Kind regards

Debra

Literally place it in whichever folder has your index.html file.
That is your root directory.

As JJ says, the root directory is where your index.html page resides. On a
Linux server this could be a folder called public_docs or www_pages or
html_docs or something similar. If unsure, ask your host what your root
directory is. Also, use a 3rd party ftp program like Cute ftp or Ws_ftp pro
to upload to server.

Hi JJ

thanks for more info...

Hi Nancy

thanks for more info, I just upload straight from net objects. I will
contact my hosting serivce which is one and one.. I kinda got lost as I now
realise you are talking of putting on my server, I thought it meant put it
on my local server (computer) then upload.. so much to learn lol.. and its
harder at the moment as I am living in Phuket at mo, only have laptop and
all my books are in UK, and a blue tooth server for internet so everything
is so slow, as normally I would search interner for more learning..

Regards
Debra..
