Why you need an XML Sitemap

An XML Sitemap is a list of URLs on your site in XML format that tells search engines how to index your pages. The XML Sitemap allows Google to retrieve information about your site structure and pages. It also informs search engines when you update your content. In the XML Sitemap you can indicate the priority of any given page, and how often your pages are modified. An XML Sitemap is needed:

  • To have a freshly launched website indexed quickly and correctly.
  • To ensure that all pages are discovered by search engines.
  • To increase a website's online visibility.
  • Help crawlers and bots index complex websites with high click depth.
  • To ensure that multilingual sites are rendered correctly to viewers.
  • To optimize your crawl budget.
In other words, you need to submit a sitemap to ensure that all important pages are easy to find and to index for Google, Bing, Yahoo, and other search engines.

Select pages to include in the sitemap

Alternatively, you can select pages in your workspace and right-click on the list to open the context menu, which will allow you to generate your Google sitemap for all the pages or some specific selected pages in the workspace (that's convenient if you have some enabled filters in the workspace).

Create and automatically submit XML Sitemap to Google

To make the process smooth, you can adjust automatic settings for Sitemap generation and submission. Depending on the option you select, you should either specify the destination folder along with the naming settings. Or you configure your settings for the XML Sitemap generator to create and upload the Google Sitemap straight to your website via FTP.

Go to Preferences > XML Sitemap Settings. Here, select a publishing option: uploading your XML Sitemap to the website via FTP or saving to your hard drive.

Upload Google Sitemap to your website via FTP

You can edit the publishing options and select to save to your hard drive. Additionally, you can save Google XML Sitemaps to different folders, created by your customers' names or by dates of creation, to keep your sitemaps in chronological order. You can name the sitemap file and choose whether to compress it using ZIP compression.

Exclude disallowed pages from your Google XML Sitemaps

You may want to instruct Google what pages not to crawl and how often your pages are updated. For example, category pages, addresses, terms and policies are not changed frequently. So why waste your crawl budget on pages that are updated rarely?

Using general settings, you can select which pages to include in the sitemap, set their change frequency, priority, and last modification date. Unlike many plugins, WebSite Auditor's XML Sitemap generator lets you exclude pages blocked from indexing by robots.txt or X-Robots tags from being added to the Google sitemap.

A new menu will appear where you will be able to select the language and the country, and designate a page to show up on searches respective to its localization settings.
