      Is it possible to generate an XML sitemap for a site without PHP? If so, how?

        Have a look at this Screaming Frog

        http://www.screamingfrog.co.uk/seo-spider/

        Its one of the best tools to use for creating sitemaps in our opinion.

          Seems like this should work, but I couldn't get it to work for my site. Thanks though

            From what I can tell the first site you listed only works with PHP. Otherwise I would definitely go with that.

            I'm sure I can find something to work out of the giant list from your second link. Thanks!

              HI Jeffrey,

              I am always generating the XML sitemap with : http://www.xml-sitemaps.com/

              Also, you can see some sitemap generators on the following link: https://code.google.com/p/sitemap-generators/wiki/SitemapGenerators

              I hope it helped,

              Cheers!

                This site has a free generator that crawls your site to generate the map.
