What are sitemaps?
Sitemaps are files that contain a list of pages on your website, as well as information about your site's content. The purpose of sitemaps is to provide search engine crawlers with a roadmap of a website's content so that they can more easily and effectively index the site.
Sitemaps can be used to ensure that search engines are aware of all the pages on a website, including pages that might not otherwise be easily discoverable through normal crawling processes. Sitemaps can also provide additional information to search engines about the priority and frequency of updates to pages on the site.
What fields does your sitemap include?
