Sitemap is an XML file that is full of your individual webpage’s URLs. It’s like an archive of every webpage in your website. This file should be easily discoverable in your site in order for search engine crawlers to stumble upon it.

Search engines should see all the pages that you want them to see. The more pages that they index from you, the more trust your site gains. It only means that your website has more information to offer.Because XML sitemaps serve as a set of recommended links to crawl, any noncanonical URLs should be excluded from the XML sitemap. Any URLs that have been disallowed in the robots.txt file — such as secure ecommerce pages, duplicate content, and print and email versions of pages — should also not be included in the XML sitemap.
