Description
Sitemap Generation
The XML Sitemap Extension for Magento 2 boosts SEO by automatically generating customizable sitemaps for better search engine crawling. It allows admins to select pages, products, and categories for inclusion, manage update frequency, and prioritize important pages. With multi-store support, it improves search visibility and ensures compliance with SEO guidelines.
- Now that you set up sitemap settings, you can create your XML sitemap file.
- Navigate to Marketing > Seo & Search > Site Map and press the Add Sitemap button.
Add New Sitemap
- Set the name of the XML file in the Filename field, enter the Path where it should be located and press the Save & Generate button.
- Once you finish you'll find the generated sitemap in the list of sitemaps.
Automate Magento Sitemap Generation
- If you've followed this guide from the start, you might have noticed this. You've already set up the auto-generation of the sitemap.
- Once you fill out the Generation Settings in the Stores > Configuration > Catalog > XML Sitemap section all you need is to submit the XML file to Google Search Console. Search robots will retrieve all the data from there.
Exclude Some Pages From XML Sitemap
- Although Magento allows you to handle the XML sitemap seamlessly, it doesn't offer an option to disable pages from the sitemap. And that might come in handy if you have some pages that you don't want in search results.
- In that case, you can resort to the Magento 2 XML Sitemap extension, that allows you to exclude pages from sitemap in Magento.
