I was browsing a forum and some people were discussing Xsitepro and whether or not it worked. I posted my thoughts and copied them below.....I think Xsitepro can be a little itimidating to the newbie. It's no different than any software and sometimes people think they can start cranking out beautiful and highly ranked websites the first day out. While Xsitepro is easy and xsitepro templates provide a great way to create some nice looking websites......one really needs to spend some time learning the software. Anyway, maybe my thoughts will help you in your journey with Xsitepro!
I've been using Xsitepro for about 4 years, I was hired to do graphics, custom Xsitepro Templates and minisites or adsense sites for a plr membership. At first, being a Dreamweaver fan, I really hated xsitepro. I thought Xsite to be somewhere between Front Page and Dreamweaver.
This was really before wordpress started to become popular, so the owner of the PLR site pressed me to crank out these Xsitepro adsense sites. The more I used it, the more I liked it and discovered how simple it would be for a newbie to use and start making websites.
I started using wordpress like everyone else....kind of forgot about Xsitepro and Dreamweaver. Then about a year ago, I dusted of Xsitepro and started creating some custom templates. I thought I'd try a sample site.
It was a small site with about 10 pages but designed to be 100's. I purchased the domain, created and uploaded the 10 pages. Xsite creates a sitemap automatically, but you have to tell it to create a google sitemap. You also can tell it to create a rss feed....all of which I did. Next, I bookmarked the site. Pinged the site and submitted the rss feed to some rss directories.
I did everything in a couple hours one night.
This was a site focused on an offline directory for a local city. There was some good competition, in the directory I promoted several local businesses.
I had about 10 keywords and keyword phrases. 8 of the keywords were on page one the next day. A couple days latter all keywords were on page one at the top.
I was shocked. So I tried with another niche, almost same results. Been about 3 or 4 months and results have stayed right on top!
I love Wordpress..... but proper use of Xsitepro can make those static pages shoot right to the top of the SERPS. In certain situations, Xsitepro is my tool of choice.
If you're a newbie, don't be discouraged. You need to practice proper niche research and development...dig out the proper keywords and implement all the built in SEO practices that Xsitepro offers. I'm trying to say it takes time, effort and knowledge in getting on top the SERPS....Xsitepro can help and is just as effective as wordpress.

I've been working on a Xsitepro Template for those doing offline marketing. I wanted to create an Offline Business Directory Template that could be used for an entire town or a niche or sub-market in the town, such as church, school etc. Anyway, I set the site up and using my standard xsitepro promotion efforts, it was indexed virtually overnight......I discuss some of the details below.
Here's a followup on the new site The Best of Mchenry I set up on July 18th, 2009.
I'm working on an Xsitepro Business Directory Template and set up an example on a new domain at www.BestofMchenry.com, unfortunatly I had one of my attacks and ended up in the hospital on the 19th, 20th and 21st so today July 22, 2009 is the first time I had a chance to check out the whether or not the site was indexed.
As you can see from the screen shot Google indexed 10 of the new sites pages in 3 days. I wish I could have checked on the second day because I've been able to get new sites indexed in google within 24 hours and I suspect this has been indexed under 24 hours according to my web logs. That's pretty exciting!
I constantly read about people not getting any traffic or not being able to index their sites....Xsitepro owners included. Xsitepro has some pretty awesome tools that allow you to get your sites in the search engines quickly and I'll give you a quick run down of what I did.
First I created the site from the Xsitepro Business Directory Template and added a couple of business listings by creating some pages. Then I created an XML file for the site from within Xsitepro, this is bestofmchenry rss feed. Next I created a Google Sitemap from within Xsitepro.
I submitted the google sitemap to Google and I submitted the RSS feed to some rss directories.
The only other thing I did was to link back to www.BestOfMchenry.com from this site and from new blogger blog. That's all I did and at least 10 pages have been indexed....pretty cool huh!
Now, the next thing to do is to start submitting some articles and press releases for keywords I want my clients pages to rank for. I'll try to document my progress, I'm limited because of health reasons but hopefully I'll get a few more clients and get this local business directory ramped up!
Here's the screen shot of the pages indexed by Google.
