This is the only way. Though, you can activate it again as soon as iMap is done. It just needs to be off during the time you run iMap. Max Max,

Is there any way around it? I have tried creating a short cut of the site on the desktop and navigating to that when I choose site (as it is greyed out normally?) Thanks Max Hi Max,

Thus, you should be using the "Other Server" tab in iMap. Secondly, since you just upload the contents of your published site folder, you have to tick an option in iMaps preference pane. If you tick the option to create the sitemap URLs without the folder name, then you shouldn't be getting any errors. Max PS: Make sure that in the GWTA, your URL is as follows: rehabandperformance.com Dale,

At one point it was putting urls that looked like this into it. http:///rehabandperformance.com It was giving it an extra backslash for some reason. I had to access the sitemap file and manually change this. However, I still can't get google to recognize my sitemap without erros. It is saying the "This url is not allowed for a Sitemap at this location". It is saying this for all the pages. I am having issues with the sitemap file generated with imap.

There is no real pattern there. Google just does what it wants I guess. :-) So yes, be a bit more patient. The GWTA will give you lots of information on when it is going to crawl your site, what it has found etc, etc... Yes, the sequence is correct. Max Ryan,

Go Daddy also tries to launch the GWA tools but builds some generic "webmaster" account. That SiteMap got 404 errors but the one I setup using my GMAIL account (the one I want to use), it seems to be working but how long have you noticed the Indexing takes? I've done the "site:www.retreatlajolla.com" and nothing thus far, nor have I found "www.retreatlajolla.com" thus far either using Google. Should I be much more patient? Hi Max,

I was also then unable to add my sitemap. After some head scratching I figured out that I had my site password protected in iWeb; once I turned that off, everything worked. So turn off your iWeb password or it won't work!
