A Sitemap is very powerful thing to index our webpages by the search engines. It contains all the posts / pages in the blog or website. In blogger technology, we can submit Sitemap by RSS Feed method. But now we introduce another method to create a simple Sitemap page in Blogger. This is very friendly method by listing all the posts of the blog.
Procedure to create a sitemap
Step 1: Go to Blogger Dashboard >> Template >> Edit HTML.
Step 2: Now place the following piece of code (You must Convert the code by Parser tool) just above "</head>" tag (by using Ctrl+F).
<script>
var numposts = 50;
var showpostdate = false;
var showpostsummary = false;
var numchars = 100;
</script>
<script>
function rp(json) {
document.write('<ul>');
for (var i = 0; i < numposts; i++) {
document.write('<li>');
var entry = json.feed.entry[i];
var posttitle = entry.title.$t;
var posturl;
if (i == json.feed.entry.length) break;
for (var k = 0; k < entry.link.length; k++) {
if (entry.link[k].rel == 'alternate') {
posturl = entry.link[k].href;
break;
}
}
posttitle = posttitle.link(posturl);
var readmorelink = "(more)";
readmorelink = readmorelink.link(posturl);
var postdate = entry.published.$t;
var cdyear = postdate.substring(0,4);
var cdmonth = postdate.substring(5,7);
var cdday = postdate.substring(8,10);
var monthnames = new Array();
monthnames[1] = "Jan";
monthnames[2] = "Feb";
monthnames[3] = "Mar";
monthnames[4] = "Apr";
monthnames[5] = "May";
monthnames[6] = "Jun";
monthnames[7] = "Jul";
monthnames[8] = "Aug";
monthnames[9] = "Sep";
monthnames[10] = "Oct";
monthnames[11] = "Nov";
monthnames[12] = "Dec";
if ("content" in entry) {
var postcontent = entry.content.$t;
} else if ("summary" in entry) {
var postcontent = entry.summary.$t;
} else
var postcontent = "";
var re = /<\S[^>]*>/g;
postcontent = postcontent.replace(re, "");
document.write(posttitle);
if (showpostdate == true) document.write(' - ' + monthnames[parseInt(cdmonth,10)] + ' ' + cdday);
if (showpostsummary == true) {
if (postcontent.length < numchars) {
document.write(postcontent);
} else {
postcontent = postcontent.substring(0, numchars);
var quoteEnd = postcontent.lastIndexOf(" ");
postcontent = postcontent.substring(0,quoteEnd);
document.write(postcontent + '...' + readmorelink);
}
}
document.write('</li>');
}
document.write('</ul>');
}
</script>
Step 3: Now Save template.
Step 4: Create a New post by pasting the following code in the HTML section of the post.
<script src="http://myblog.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?orderby=published&alt=json-in-script&callback=rp"></script>
Step 5: Replace "myblog.blogspot.com" with your blog url, Name the post as "Sitemap" and publish it.
NOTE : If you want to show more posts then replace "50" with the desired number in "var numposts = 50;" in Step 2.
Step 6: Finally your sitemap is ready. The following is another simple method to create a sitemap.
