A Sitemap is a simple data file that tells search engines about pages in a website that can be reviewed by the search engine. A Sitemap is invisible to your site visitors but can help search engines do a better job of reviewing your site - which in turn can improve your chances of appearing in search results.

Please note that a Sitemap does not guarantee inclusion in search engines or better rankings. Rather, it's one way to help your site get indexed.

If you're using Store Editor, we'll create and update a Sitemap for you, but with a little effort, you can create your own Sitemap using any tool you like. Learn how to create your own Sitemap.
