How to create a tree-like structure map of a website?
-
Hi all,
The online marketing manager requested to make a tree-like map of the website. He means that he would like to see a graphical representation of the website and his contents. This way we will be able to see if there are internal link issues.
The problem is that there are thousands of pages and many subdomains, manual labour would make this a very tedious task.
If you would get this question, how would you try to solve this? Any software recommendation?

Powermapper is very cool: http://www.powermapper.com/download/mapper/index.htm
It will give you a visual representation of the site and has a free trial so you have a go. I have not used for a site with over 1000 pages but it is certainly good for sites with hundreds of pages.
It allows you to output to HTML, PDF etc so really can help give you an idea of site structure.
Hope it helps.

I have never had to do it but there are tools like PowerMapper which is quite pricey for what it does. Does he actually want a visual one or more like a tree like structure. This probably more 'doable; by dumpinghte XML into some formatting tool and importing it into HTML.

Hi
Not sure if the software in this post is too 'artistic' but maybe something there will work. From SEOgadget / Richard Baxter

Why Google de-rank a website.
Hi, I was inspecting a website which is covering the topic of best wheelbarrow of 2021, it is a new website and and starts ranking on google. But, after few days it got de-rank automatically and Moz is also not showing any result to that. I was wandering why this just happened and what should I do if I made my website and will not face this kind of situation?

Flat vs Hierarchical URL Structure
Hi, We are redoing our site structure and I was wondering what are the benefits of having a flat url structure. For example store.com/product instead of doing store.com/category/product. I noticed sites doing it both ways, even moz.com has both structures ex: moz.com/learn/seo and when you clck on something it brings you to moz.com/seo-expert-quiz (even though following the previous logic it should be moz.com/learn/seo/seo-expert-quiz) Please advise, Thanks!

Landing Page URL Structure
We are finally setting up landing pages to support our PPC campaigns. There has been some debate internally about the URL structure. Originally we were planning on URL's like: domain.com /california /florida /ny I would prefer to have the URL's for each state inside a "state" folder like: domain.com /state /california /florida /ny I like having the folders and pages for each state under a parent folder to keep the root folder as clean as possible. Having a folder or file for each state in the root will be very messy. Before you scream URL rewriting :-). Our current site is still running under Classic ASP which doesn't support URL rewriting. We have tried to use HeliconTech's ISAPI rewrite module for IIS but had to remove it because of too many configuration issues. Next year when our coding to MVC is complete we will use URL rewriting. So the question for now: Is there any advantage or disadvantage to one URL structure over the other?

Websites being hacked & duplicated, what should we do?
Hi, please help! Our website was hacked and being totally duplicated. They even injected codes to intercept our orders. Although the codes issue had been solved, still there're two mirror sites out there. When search for some of our key words, they even have good ranks. What exactly can we do to let Google ban those two sites. Thanks in advance!
