An XML sitemap is a critical SEO tool that helps search engines like Google, Bing, and Yahoo crawl and index your website efficiently. Without one, important pages may remain undiscovered, limiting your site’s visibility.
The Seostrix XML Sitemap Generator makes it simple for webmasters to generate, customize, and optimize XML sitemaps. Whether you run a blog or a large eCommerce store, this tool ensures that your content is indexed quickly and accurately.
Pair it with the Site Audit Tool for technical SEO insights and the Broken Link Checker to fix crawl errors before submission.
