Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is a marketing strategy that allows search engines to find and rank your site in their search results. Sitemaps are a way for your site to communicate with search engines such as Google, MSN or Yahoo.
The Importance of a Sitemap
• The importance of a sitemap goes hand in hand with the importance of SEO. SEO is essential to generating website traffic and revenue. On the other hand, sitemaps are essential to getting those search engine “spiders” to search, index and rank the content of your site.

An XML site map is a file you place on your website that lists some or all of the pages in your site. The idea is that search engine spiders can read the site map file(s), and locate all of your pages so they can be indexed. You can also give some useful information such as the relative priority of pages for crawling.

A Sitemap is an XML file that lists the URLs for a site. It allows webmasters to include additional information about each URL: when it was last updated, how often it changes, and how important it is in relation to other URLs in the site. This allows search engines to crawl the site more intelligently.
