What are Sitemaps?
Sitemaps are an
way for webmasters
inform search engines about pages on their sites that are available for crawling_
In its simplest fom;
Sitemap
an XML file that lists URLs for
site along with
additional metadata about each URL (when
was last updated 
how often it usually changes
and how important it is, relative to other URLs in the site)
so that search engines can more intelligently crawl the
site _
Web crawlers usually discover pages from links within the site and from other sites. Sitemaps supplement this data tO allow crawlers that support Sitemaps to pick up all URLs in the Sitemap ad Iearn about
those URLs using the associated metadata: Using the Sitemap PrOtCcol does not guarantee that web pages are included
search engines; but provides hints for web crawlers t0 do
better job of crawling
your site.
