Does your website have a sitemap?

While XML & HTML sitemaps aren’t website planning tools, per se, they are very important to the makeup of a website. 1. An XML sitemap is a structured list of website content, including all forms of media, that is set up to be comprehensively read and indexed by search engines. 2. An HTML sitemap may be used to serve as a visual aid for human website navigation. It may be included as a website page, or simply as a navigation tool. Does your website have a sitemap? Follow these steps to find out:

• Open up any website browser

• Enter this link: https://www.websitedomain.com/robots.txt (Remember to change this to your own website domain!)

• Copy and paste the sitemap link into the same browser window.

• You should see a list of links on a page titled, “XML Sitemap”.

• If you don’t, something might be wrong!
