XML sitemap

Search engines don't have to hunt for your pages.

The sitemap sits at /kwpseo-sitemap.xml and lists what exists on your website. The robots.txt carries a reference to it, so crawlers find the list on their own.

FAQ on the XML sitemap

Where do I find the sitemap?
At /kwpseo-sitemap.xml. Open the address once in the browser and you will see exactly what is output.
Do I have to submit the sitemap anywhere?
Not necessary: the robots.txt points to it and crawlers read it there. If you like, you can additionally enter the address in the search engines' own tools.
Why of all places is the reference in the robots.txt?
Because crawlers read the robots.txt first. The reference there is the shortest way from the start address to the complete list of your pages.
