Sitemap is a model of the content of your website created to help site users and search engines. A sitemap is a list of pages that are hierarchically linked by topic, organization chart, or XML, and provide instructions for crawling the search engines on the site.

The site map is a kind of roadmap for the website and allows Google to identify important pages of your site.

This will affect the site Seo. Because even if the internal linking of the site is not strong enough, Google can still identify important pages.

Generally the purpose of creating a site is to display the content within it to the target audience. This will only become a reality if the site and its content are readable by Google. Google search engines check important pages of the site daily. This is called crawling. In this case, if these pages are not properly specified through internal linking, it will be difficult to find them by the search engines.

What are the types of sitemaps?

HTML sitemap

This site map is written in Hyper text Markup Language. This language can be used to show website structure to users. In fact, the HTML sitemap contains information about web pages and their position on the site. This site map is visually accessible to site visitors. They can access different parts of the site with the HTML Map Site.

Take, for example, a website that has thousands of pages categorized in different sections. In such a case, when a user enters the site, he is completely confused and does not know which section he can find the content he is looking for. In this case the best option he can use is a site map in HTML language.
With this type of map, the user can more accurately know the route and pages of the site.

Pages are linked together using an internal link using Sitemap. As a result of this linking, the site's rankings in the original keyword improves.

XML Map Site

XML Sitemap is written in Extensible Markup Language. The XML Map Site is only used to show site content to search engine crawlers and site users cannot see it. In fact, by creating such a map you are telling crawlers how many pages your website has. Google will also be notified of any changes to the web pages or any updates to the site through this sitemap. This makes it possible for Google to quickly review the content of the website without any problems and this has a huge impact on the SEO of the site.
Users of this kind of site do not see the map The purpose of building such a map is to help Google crawl.

In essence, it can be said that the speed and security of search engine indexing of websites is partly dependent on their site map.

Introducing Sitemap to Google

A site map provides search engines with information such as the position of the content on the site, its importance, the type of content, and the changes that are made to it. In fact, a site map should include the following information:

     Each page is exactly where the site is located.
     When was the last time the pages were updated?
     Changes to the page are made from time to time.
     The importance of each page is comparable to the other pages.

In the first step, you need to decide which of your web pages should be crawled by Google search engines.
