XML file listing all important pages on a website to help crawlers discover and index content.
What is Sitemap?
A Sitemap is an XML file (typically sitemap.xml) that provides crawlers with a structured list of your website's URLs, including metadata like update frequency and priority. Sitemaps help ensure AI crawlers discover all your important content, especially deep or recently published pages. For GEO, maintaining an up-to-date sitemap that includes your highest-quality, most authoritative content helps maximize visibility in AI training data and RAG systems.
