What is a Sitemap.xml?
A sitemap.xml file is an XML file that lists all the important pages of your website. It helps search engines like Google, Bing, and Yahoo discover, crawl, and index your content more efficiently. The sitemap provides metadata about each URL, including when it was last updated, how often it changes, and its relative importance.
While search engines can discover pages through links, a sitemap ensures that all your important pages are found, especially new pages, updated content, or pages that might not be well-linked from other parts of your site.
