XML Sitemap

An XML sitemap is a file that lists all important pages on your website, helping search engines discover and crawl content efficiently. It supplements the information gathered through internal linking and robots.txt. XML sitemaps support various protocols including hreflang for internationalization, video and image metadata, and news content types. They're especially important for large sites, new sites, and sites with lots of dynamic content. Submit your sitemap to Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools for better indexing. Keep it updated as you add or remove pages.
