FAQs

  • What is an HTML sitemap?

An HTML sitemap is a public page listing important URLs on your website in a simple, clickable format, helping users and search engines find content.

  • Is this different from an XML sitemap?

Yes. XML sitemaps are for search engines; HTML sitemaps are for humans and add internal links that bots can follow.

  • How big should my HTML sitemap be?

For large sites, create multiple sections or sub-sitemaps (e.g., by category) to keep pages scannable.

  • Do I need to add nofollow?

No. Leave links as follow so search engines can crawl them.

  • Where should I place my sitemap?

Publish it on a public URL (e.g., /html-sitemap/) and link it in your footer or main navigation.
