what difference it makes by using a dynamically generated site map rather than a static site map page for the optimization of dynamic pages. much of the contents of the page will remain almost same, so how a spider will visit this page more in number than a static page?

can anyone give me some idea, how this will help and how can i design a dynamic site map for a website comprising of 100 dynamic pages for different products.

If the dynamic site isn't liked right now by the SE, then I can't imagine that a dynamic site map would be liked much better. On the other hand, it is possible that it might like a static site map and therefore index it. I say possible because I'm still trying to get google et al to take the bait, in hopes of helping my site rise from the ashes after we went to dynamic pages.

We added a static site map connecting to 20 static category pages and then linked those to our dynamic product pages. Are hope is that we will get the SE to index our 21 new pages which will help us. I doubt that they will index the dynamic product pages because they just don't seem to like them no matter what. To get them indexed we will have to use a url rewrite which is discussed in various other threads.

So in short and in MHO, avoid the dynamic site map.

my site is not a whole dynamic site ,
just the category pages are dynamic pages, is the consequence that you wrote applys both to the dynamic site and static site including dynamic pages.
