It’s another one of those blog post again. Let me showcase another site - GsiteCrawler! And what do you get? A sitemap generator and if you are using Windows, you are in luck! You can use it! But seriously, this is a powerful piece of software, you can generate Google Sitemaps (XML), Yahoo Sitemaps (txt) and even RoR sitemaps. Heck, if you have the time, you can even create HTML sitemaps from it! It follows Robots.txt rules too. It also has a flexible URL list which you can edit or delete any URLs later on. And this software is available for free. If you are a Mac/Linux/Unix/Dos/AlienOS user, you need to look for other software to do the dirty work for you. Well, if you guys don’t mind me saying “I love my Windows”.

Wait, what’s a sitemap for you ask? A sitemap is sort of like a map of URLs, meant for Search Engine bots to easily navigate your site. Although it will not always follow what is shown on the (site)map, it probably will help your site get indexed faster and more efficiently. I think a sitemap is most important for a new website as it gives Search Engines a layout of your site for them to crawl.

If you are in Singapore and you are looking for a Spa Retreat, I have created a rather huge list of Beauty Spas which are available in Singapore. Note that the list is only for Spas which has a website. I am very sure that there are way more Spas in Singapore than what is seen on the list. It is also surprising to see so many spa businesses suddenly appearing in Singapore. Perhaps it is due to the hot and humid weather, or perhaps it is due to the stress or perhaps it is a status thing, but whatever it is, this industry is growing huge.

Please visit: Singapore Beauty Spas Listings and get pampered. I heard that even blokes go there. Maybe they are going there to get their nails done. For me, I would rather spend my money on important things, like food and ice-cream. I think that Spas are best left to women.

Oh, by the way, if your site (directory, forum or blog) gets attacked by some sort of stupid robot spam, you should head down to Jim Westergren’s site and read up on how to combat those monsters (Fighting The War Against Web Site Spam Bots). They have solutions for Wordpress, vBulletin, Phplinkdirectory and Aardvark Topsites Php. Ha, one of my directories got spammed by the thousands per week. No, I am not kidding. I can get about a thousand over submissions and all are crap from forums and what not. Me hate Spam bots.
