What is a sitemap?

A sitemap is like a table of contents for your webshop. It provides an overview of all internal links, such as categories, products, and pages. It helps search engines like Google to better and more quickly understand and index your webshop.

 

How do I find my sitemap?

You can easily view your sitemap by typing /sitemap.xml after your webshop URL.


Example: yourdomain.com/sitemap.xml


Attention!

Loading the sitemap may take some time, depending on the size of your webshop (number of products, pages, categories).

 

How do I regenerate my sitemap?

Your webshop’s sitemap is automatically updated every 24 hours. Normally, you don’t need to do anything. However, if you’ve made major changes, such as adding new categories or products, you can manually regenerate the sitemap:


  1. Type /sitemap.xml?regen=1 after your webshop URL.
    Example: yourdomain.com/sitemap.xml?regen=1

  2. Press Enter and wait while the sitemap is regenerated.
