A Sitemap is an XML file that lists all the URLs on a website that should be indexed by search engines. It helps search engine crawlers discover and crawl website content more efficiently, especially important for new sites, large websites, and sites with complex structures.

What is the difference between Sitemap Index and a regular Sitemap?

A regular Sitemap lists individual page URLs, with a maximum of 50,000 URLs or 50MB per file. A Sitemap Index is an "index of sitemaps" that points to multiple sub-sitemap files, suitable for large websites managing multiple sitemaps.

What are changefreq and priority for?

changefreq tells search engines how often a page is updated (e.g., daily, weekly), and priority indicates the relative importance of a page (0.0-1.0). These fields are advisory — search engines do not strictly follow them, but sensible values can help optimize crawling strategies.

How do I submit the generated Sitemap to search engines?

After uploading sitemap.xml to your site root, you can submit it via: 1) Google Search Console; 2) Baidu Webmaster Tools; 3) Add a Sitemap directive in robots.txt: Sitemap: https://example.com/sitemap.xml.
