Abstract
The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for dynamic sitemap creation. Embodiments of the present invention facilitate the placement of executable code behind a Sitemap feed. The executable code is configured to access objects from a data source (e.g., database, other data collection, Web service, etc.) and translates the objects into XML for inclusion in a Sitemap. Sitemap properties can be included in a configuration file and/or in a derived class and preserved within Sitemap entries. Thus, a Sitemap can be created directly and automatically from data at a data source. Accordingly, a Sitemap can be created without having to manually re-enter data from the data source into the Sitemap.
