- Provides information about how often each page is updated.
- Helps search engine crawlers discover and index our content more efficiently.
Technical Improvements
This update involved the following technical improvements:
- Generated and implemented the sitemap.xml file.
- Submitted the sitemap to relevant search engine webmaster tools (e.g., Google Search Console, Bing Webmaster Tools).
- Configured the website to dynamically update the sitemap as new content is added.
Challenges
Implementing the sitemap presented some challenges:
- Ensuring the sitemap accurately reflects the website's structure and content.
- Configuring dynamic sitemap generation for automatic updates.
- Submitting the sitemap to various search engine platforms.
