How to Create a Site Map for a Web Page
By:Collaborator
A site map works much like a Table of Contents (see 'How to Add a Table of Contents to a Web Page'). Use a Site Map if you have a large site with many different pages and target links (see 'How to Add a Target Link to a Web Page'). This tutorial requires a basic knowledge of HTML (see 'How to Learn HTML') or a web design application (see 'How to Choose a Web Design Application').
Create a Site Map using a word-processing program or a sheet of paper. Be sure to include all pages and necessary target links.
Start a text-editing program, such as EditPad or Notepad. Open the page where the Site Map will be located, or create a new page for the Site Map.
Position the cursor at the insertion point.
Copy and paste the Site Map from the word-processing program, or type it in manually.
Link to each referenced page or target link using the command. Be sure to close the command with .
Save the page and preview it in a browser. Check all links to make sure they are valid.
Upload the page to your website and re-check the links.
