Sitemap and number of urls problem ?

I ahve to websites, 3..., but we talk now about 2.

Mybetinfo.net and whatafy.com

On mybetinfo.net i have over 40.000 mesages and sitemap has around few over 10 k links, but on whatafy i have around 20.000 mesages and over 27 k links in my sitemap, how is this possible ?

And some loinks is only numbers, could be because setings are different ? one has set to index each post and other only threads or ?

Code:

2694026940Joomla !
      0.82   2011-04-11T13:30:48+00:00   monthly 26941Joomla !
      0.32   2011-04-11T13:30:48+00:00   yearly 26942Joomla !
      0.312   2011-04-11T13:30:48+00:00   yearly

Also some sugeestion are welcome aboiut the settings of vbseo sitemap, i will have around 5k to 10 k messages on whatafy per month.

Yep, i just sawed on my forums,

Include Show Post Pages
Select "Yes" to include your show post pages in your sitemaps (showpost.php).

One of them has this option enabled, what do you advice me to do ? should i keep this enabled or not ?

I recommend disabling show post.

Ok, i found that is ok to use only showthread and show forum in sitemap. (her e: vBSEO Sitemap Generator : Quality vs Quantity)

On whatafy after settings :

1 2011-04-21 00:09 4.15 s 7,198 -13,656 Yes Yes View details | Remove
2 2011-04-20 23:50 15.00 s 20,854 -20,524 Yes Yes View details | Remove

From 40.000 to 7.198, guess this is better.


on mybetinfo.net

1 2011-04-21 00:09 6.03 s 16,034 -7,400 Yes Yes View details | Remove


Looks ok now, only the best will be indexed.

However i have a problem, at permalinks there is no option for forums, i can't see it, so the guide is not good for vb4 ??

showpost doesn't really exist on vb4. You don't need to change anything there.

Ok, i followed some advices from other thread, hope now is much better. Seems the traffic is comming very slow after few months, but we work hard to push up the traffic
