Hello,  I want to build a site similar to someone else's.  Is there
any software out there that I can point at their site and it would
strip out their structure for me?  I realize that I would not be
getting any programming or code.  What I am looking for is a very
detailed site map for that site.  Something that will give me a pretty
picture of every link in that site.  Kinda like the software that is
offered for developers to provide Site maps for sites they build but,
reversed and a lot more detailed.

I am not a technical guy, so I hope this description was good enough. 
If not, please feel free to contact me.

Thank you,
George

This kind of tools are called offline browsers . Just stick into
google offline browser and you can find tools that are used to rip
entire sites and save them on your disk!
Web Grabber http://www.kabestin.com/webgrabber.html
WebCopier www.maximumsoft.com
WebZip www.spidersoft.com

koutroullos,

Thanks for the info, but will any of these programs literally draw a
diagram or a pretty picture of the links?   What I'm looking for is
some type of a graph or chart showing all the links and how they
interact.  Will this do it, or will it just compile the info in a way
that a programmer would know what he is looking at?  Please
understand, I am far from a programmer.   I need something that'll
also organize the info for me.

Thanks, and by the way, I see that you have a Greek Name.  Where
were/are you and or your parents from?  My family was from Ikaria. 
I'll be going back in august.

Thanks again for your help,
George Markakis

Microsoft Visio Professional 2003 will do exactly what you are asking
(note that the standard edition does not have the ability to map web
sites). Microsoft Visio is a standard for flow charting software.  I
have used this tool myself to generate website maps and found it to
work quite well.  If desired, provide the URL for the site that you
want to index and I can provide a sample of the output.

The way that it works is that you specify a URL and can define some
rules (ex: only go 3 levels deep, specify whether to index certain
file types such as images, etc).

Here is a link to a document that contains some product information:

Here is a link to download a free trial edition of this software:

I own nine sites and others have invited us to partner with them
because of our expertise. Have you considered a site based on the
silver conspiracy? If you did, you could pay for the finished book I
wrote for you and market it on your new site. If you did so, I'd be
glad to share with you how to use blogs to generate higher rankings
for your site. You know you can count on MY WORD. You know how to
reach me.
