Practical advice
  • For global reach, submitting to Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools + enabling IndexNow covers the vast majority of search exposure.
  • Always expose your sitemap in /robots.txt (e.g., Sitemap: https://example.com/sitemap.xml) so all crawlers can discover it automatically.
  • Maintain clean internal linking; sitemaps supplement (not replace) a crawlable site structure.

What’s “world-standard” in sitemaps?

  • Max 50,000 URLs per file (and < 50 MB uncompressed).
  • Valid tags: loc, lastmod (W3C datetime), changefreq, priority.
  • Official changefreq: always, hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, never.
  • priority ranges 0.0–1.0. Home can be 1.0; deeper pages lower.
  • Use Gzip for faster transfer; search engines support .xml.gz.
  • Provide a sitemap index when you split files.
  • Keep URLs canonical (scheme/host casing, trailing slash policy).

Tips

  • “Respect robots.txt” will skip disallowed paths for User-agent: *.
  • “Use HTTP Last-Modified” tries a HEAD request per URL for accurate lastmod.
  • Prefer stable URL patterns. Avoid random/sort parameters unless necessary.
