Crawling for hours

[veronica234]

Hi, before 12 hours about i install the unlimited sitemap generator. From this time is still crawling, is this normal 12 hours crawling? I check my sitemap and i get this "XML Parsing Error: no element found
Location: [ External links are visible to forum administrators only ]
Line Number 1, Column 1:"

Do i have to let my p.c. open to crawling more?
Any ideas?

Hello,

The crawling time itself depends on the website page generation time mainly, since it crawls the site similar to search engine bots.
For instance, if it it takes 1 second to retrieve every page, then 1000 pages will be crawled in about 16 minutes.

When I stop crawling after 12 hours i get a note "if i would like to start again the same season and that urls added is 1857". With free edition I build my sitemap with 3000 pages in minutes, the reason i pay standalone is because i need unlimited pages!

So is this normal the error i get? If yes why?
