<priority>0.5</priority>

Values are 0.0 to 1.0 - default if no tag is 0.5
It's thepriority of this URL relative to other URLs on your site.

It's just an xml data file for google. If you wanted it to befunctional for users, you'd have to run it through and XSLTtransformation file to convert it to html or stick it in an html pagewith an xml doctype and use css to define display rules for the tags.The XSLT route would enable you to create hyperlinks out of the loctags though.

I noted that a couple of items in your file were missing timestamps.Don't know if it matters though. However, I'd add priority tags for thehome page, major content pages and the forum active topics page.

Also, put a link from the home page to the active topics page. Untilyou're deep crawled, set the active topics default to the max amount oftime allowed. This will put all topics in your forum only 2 levels downfrom the home page which should get them the crawled faster.

Get rid of the &nbs p; It's a cut-n-paste artifact from the RTE in wwf. It shouldn't be there.  Leave the rest of the line.]]> Tue, 23 Aug 2005 21:39:57 +0000 https://forums.webwiz.net/promoting-your-forum-how_topic16290_post89253.html#89253 <![CDATA[Promoting your Forum: How? : The xml is right.

The xml is right.

I ahve started playing with http://johannesmueller.com/gs/ which build the xml for you.

You can also try adding a Sitemap for users.

got it all working!

I even got a daily counter if you want to check it out
http://www.cancerbeeter.org

its at the bottom right

Dpyers
is there a way to have the counter site-wide, but not have the actualcounter on each page. say i enter on cancerbeeter page 2 and not on thehome page, can the counter count, then display on the home.

the active users code does that...it uses a global.asa file. can iutilize the same file in your code, just count how many times itactivates and not the number of sessions...would you know how to dothat...

thanks
