A sitemap is a file which includes the different pages of an Internet site and the route to them through the sections of the site. The pages can be organized visually or as plain text and this sort of a file is quite useful for two reasons. The first one is that it makes it faster and easier for the visitors to locate a particular page they need, so that they can navigate your website better and more quickly, that in turn will increase their user experience and it will be more likely that they will return to the website or will recommend it to other people. The second reason is the fact that a sitemap permits search engines to index your website content better, particularly if it's updated, so when users are interested in specific content, it is much more likely that they will find your site as it will be listed higher in their search results. In case your Internet site is not indexed well, it might not show up for some searches, so even if you have what people need, they will not get to the website.
SiteMap Generator in Shared Web Hosting
Our shared web hosting solutions feature a sitemap generator which is part of our cutting-edge Hepsia Control Panel. The instrument uses the same user-friendly Hepsia interface, so you will be able to generate a sitemap for each of your domains and subdomains with a couple of clicks even if you haven't had a website before. There are several options, which you can customize - the depth, which shows how many levels in the website the sitemap should follow links, the maximum number of links which will be included and what file types will show up on the sitemap. For the aforementioned feature, you can type or delete certain file extensions, that can be quite helpful if you have files which aren't generic for a site like php or html, but are pdf or mp3 files, for example. In this way, your custom site content will be incorporated inside the sitemap together with the web pages.
