XML sitemaps are an important tool for optimizing websites for search engines such as Google, Seznam and others. It is an XML file that contains a complete map of your website, including the URLs of all pages. The main purpose of Sitemap XML is to help search engines index the pages on your website efficiently and quickly.
This file provides search engines with basic information about the structure of the site, which is crucial if you have a complex site with many subpages or if the content changes frequently. In addition to the URL, the XML sitemap can contain additional information such as the date the page was last updated, the frequency of changes, and the priority of each page.
Using an XML sitemap ensures that search engines don't miss important parts of your site, which can improve its visibility in search results. It is therefore essential for improving SEO (Search Engine Optimization) and ensuring that new and updated pages are indexed quickly.
Solidpixels creates a sitemap automatically based on the content you have allowed search engines to index. Your sitemap can always be found at the address in the root directory of your domain "/sitemap.xml.gz" (for example https://www.domain.com/sitemap.xml.gz).
