Frequently Asked Questions
What is an XML sitemap?
An XML sitemap is a file that lists the essential pages of your website, making sure search engines can find and crawl them all. It can also help search engines understand your site structure.
Where do I put the sitemap.xml file?
You should place your `sitemap.xml` file in the root directory of your website (e.g., `https://example.com/sitemap.xml`). After uploading, you should submit its location to Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools.
What are the <priority> and <changefreq> tags?
These are optional tags in a sitemap. `<changefreq>` suggests how often a page is likely to change (e.g., daily, weekly), and `<priority>` indicates its importance relative to other pages on your site (from 0.0 to 1.0). While you can add them, major search engines like Google have stated that they largely ignore these values and rely on their own algorithms to determine crawl frequency and importance.
