An XML sitemap – submitted for you

Search engines need to know which pages exist. Your website comes with a clean XML sitemap that lists all your pages with their last change date – and we submit it to Google and Bing so your new site gets discovered quickly.

What you get

An XML sitemap at yourbusiness.com/sitemap.xml with every page
Last-modified dates that change only when a page really changes
A robots.txt that points search engines to your XML sitemap
Your site verified in Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools
Instant notification of new pages via IndexNow (Bing, Yandex, Seznam, Naver …)
Access to Search Console for you, so you can see how people find you

Why an XML sitemap matters for a new website

A brand-new website has no links from other sites yet, so search engines may take weeks to find all of its pages. An XML sitemap is a direct list of every URL. Submitting it in Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools tells both search engines exactly what to crawl.

Updated automatically

Whenever a page is added or changed – including posts on your news page – the XML sitemap updates itself. Combined with on-page SEO and fast hosting, this is the technical foundation for being found.

This website's own XML sitemap is at /sitemap.xml. Yours will look just like it.

Questions

Does an XML sitemap guarantee rankings?

No. A sitemap helps search engines find and crawl your pages; where they rank depends on your content, competition and links. But without being found, there is nothing to rank.

Do I get access to Google Search Console?

Yes. We add you as an owner, so you can see your search queries and clicks yourself.
