Is there any tools that I can use similar to VB seo that is used to vBullitien so that I can easily generate the sitemap.

Once you get over 5000 or so pages most free site map generators are useless, my site has 13,000 pages and I had to get the paid version of Create your Google Sitemap Online - XML Sitemaps Generator but it works great, it has to be run through SSH or a cron job, but it will do all of my site in about 30 mins. Once its setup it automatically makes a new site map every 3 days.

Thanks! Looks like it's worth a try. Can I ask: In terms of crawling a pligg site what setting do you use to set the last modified date?

The instructions on the tool are

It is recommended to use "Server's repsonse" for "Last modification" field. In this case the entries for static pages will be filled with their real last modification time, while for dynamic pages the current time is used.

.

Can the tool pick up the submission date or is the current time used?
