I did not receive the reply I think I set my options wrong in the mailman but I did see the reply in the online archives, Haravikk The point of sitemaps is you submit then to a search engine for a search engine to have a set of URLs for them to look up and get the information from. Its a map to the site so to speak, this is good for such things as social sites, that wont have links on the main site that point to every possible page there is, as an example if you go to https://www.allvirtualsocial.com you will not see my post I posted on there a few weeks ago or the post about me creating android apps that are now available on the google play, but if you look at the sitemap https://www.allvirtualsocial.com/sitemap.xml you will see the link in there, although search engines dont use them for the main system to provide ranking, they use it to know where to crawl on the site, especially for pages that are not that obvious to “spiders”, so site maps are more common than people think, but are used primarily for search engines, this is why I have thought about this a lot. The concept would be to provide the search engine with the information it needs to provide search results to a set type, and would make be able to provide the nest answers it can give. I have a lot of work to do on the system including the bots, I’m thinking of making a 3 bot system 1 that does sites in the general sense, I.e. my social site, grids websites, news sites like Hyper Grid News, Blog sites related to virtual worlds and so forth, one bot to do site map collection for such sites, and another bot to do the land and users maps in grids, I’m going to install OS on my system some point today and check out some things on the system, and going to make a PHP sitemap Implementation of landmaps. And look at something when it comes to usermaps, though I would need to speak to someone within OS and Viewers to see if a thought is possible though I’m doubtful, this is something I am hopeing that can either be a module (and someone can help me create a opensource module of this) or even have it as a core integration, and have it with some config options so then people can choose to opt in or out of it. The search engine is a long way off from being finished, I have yet to fully create the bots, I’m working on the first bot, and working on making it so it follows robots.txt and robots META tags, and working on the back end the options of what to use for the back end, elastic search, DB system like MySQL or alike, or even a custom engine design, I have a lot of work ahead of me and I’m working hard on it, I’m also working hard on the page ranking algorithm aswell which will be hard to do. If people are wanting to help with this I would be very happy to accept help on this project in any form.
