Help search engines find your pages
A sitemap tells search engines about all the pages on your site, helping them crawl and index your content more efficiently.
<url>
<loc>https://example.com/</loc>
<lastmod>2024-01-15</lastmod>
</url> Why you need a sitemap
Sitemaps help search engines understand your site structure and discover all your important pages.
Faster discovery
New pages get found and indexed faster when they're listed in your sitemap.
Better crawl efficiency
Search engines can prioritize important pages and avoid wasting crawl budget on duplicates.
Rich metadata
Include last modified dates and change frequency to help search engines know when to re-crawl.
Sitemap XML elements
<loc>
Required. The full URL of the page. Must include the protocol (https://).

<lastmod>
Optional. When the page was last modified. Use W3C datetime format.
<lastmod>2024-01-15</lastmod>

Sitemap best practices
Only include canonical URLs
Don't include duplicate pages, redirects, or pages blocked by robots.txt. Only indexable URLs.
Keep it under 50MB / 50,000 URLs
For larger sites, split into multiple sitemaps and use a sitemap index file.
Reference in robots.txt
Add Sitemap: https://example.com/sitemap.xml to your robots.txt.
Submit to Search Console
After uploading, submit your sitemap in Google Search Console for faster indexing.
