What is a Sitemap?
A sitemap is an XML file that lists the URLs for a site along with additional metadata about each URL (when it was last updated, how often it changes) to help search engines crawl the site more intelligently.
Importance of Validation
Submitting a valid sitemap to Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools is crucial for SEO. Errors in your XML structure can prevent search bots from discovering your new content, hurting your indexation speed.
