Importance of site maps

Sitemaps will help you to easily navigate and to get better visibility by search engines. By using Sitemaps you will get the opportunity to inform search engines immediately that you have any changes on your site or not. Moreover in case of new sites or if you have a significant number of new (or recently updated pages), then using a sitemap can be vital to your success. You may still go without a sitemap but it is true and more people are thinking that soon sitemaps will become the standard way of submitting a site to search engines.

Hello to Friends,

Sitemaps are important as they assist user navigation and enhance SEO. This means that users are able to understand the purpose and theme of the site, while finding required content. On the other hand, a site map makes it easier for search engines to find and rank a site's content. Thus, the site is more likely to be indexed and ranked in Search Engine Results Pages (SERPs). This makes site maps very important for the optimisation of a site.

Thanks and Regards

It is really helpful, More website are used to update their information by using sitemap for automatic submissions in search engines.
 
We have had a number of enquiries on the value or importance of sitemaps for SEO. This article will explain exactly why it is relevant to have a strong site map.If you own a website, you are probably familiar with sitemaps. A sitemap is basically an additional page on your website that incorporates a list of links to every single page on your site and can also detail the hierarchy of pages on your site.
 
Using sitemaps has many benefits, not only easier navigation and better visibility by search engines. Sitemaps offer the opportunity to inform search engines immediately about any changes on your site. Of course, you cannot expect that search engines will rush right away to index your changed pages but certainly the changes will be indexed faster, compared to when you don't have a sitemap.
 
It's odd how the importance of sitemaps has ebbed and flowed. For awhile there they didn't seem to matter. I think if you are targeting Bing or Yahoo they are more important. Google seems to crawl most pages though.
 
Sitemaps, simply stated, are just a map of the site – a page that displays the structure of a site, its various sections, the links between them, etc. Sitemaps are primarily intended to provide visitors with all kinds of navigational help they will require. Sitemaps are an extended form of navigational aid wherein we display the web site structure with links to major sections and sub-sections
 
Site maps are really important, it describes the structure of the website. there are two types of sitemap one is HTML for users and another one is XML for search engines.
 
A sitemap (with which you may well be familiar) is an HTML page containing an ordered list of all the pages on your site. Sitemap can be XML, TXT or HTML usually XML and TXT is served for robots

Good sitemaps help humans to find what they are looking for and help search engines to orient themselves and manage their crawl activities.
Googlebot, in particular, may complete the indexing of your site over multiple visits, and even after that will return from time to time to check for changes. A sitemap gives the spider a rapid guide to the structure of your site and what has changed since last time.

XML sitemap used for search engines wheres as HTML sitemap is for the user.

Hope this help you!!

Sitemap is list of URLs present in website. It helps search engine to crawl easily each and every pages, so it is really important for a website to have a sitemap specially if they want their pages to be indexed.
