Sitemap function

Then what is the function of the site map? OK, the admin will review a little about the function of a site map for a blog or website.

1. Facilitate Visitor Navigation

Based on studies conducted in recent years, the level of visitor attention on a website is getting shorter. That means website or blog owners must be able to maximize the distribution of content so that it is easily accessible.
HTML sitemap is one solution to make it easier to find information. This is because all content will be displayed on one page so the title readability is very high.

2. To Monitor Website Architecture

Friends of Qwords can imagine a blueprint for a building being built by an architect. Well, an HTML sitemap is a blueprint that can be used to see the structure of your website content.

A good HTML sitemap, of course, is made by paying attention to the schematic arrangement of links that are sequential and easy to understand. So, if at any time there are problems in terms of architecture or taxonomy, it will be easier for you to identify them.

3. Clarify the Purpose of the Website

HTML sitemap is very important to maintain the relevance of the website. Especially for news websites, or personal websites that have a lot of article content.
Thanks to the HTML sitemap, the anchor text in each article will automatically increase and enrich the internal links between pages.
As we know, a strong and relevant internal link strategy will increase the strength of your site in search engines.

4. Speed up Search Engine Index

Are the articles on your blog still slowly indexed in search engine searches? You can help web crawlers index pages by presenting a special HTML sitemap page that already contains all the content.
Although not widely known, the type of link containing relevant anchor text such as an HTML sitemap is preferred by search engine robots, because it is more natural and can be understood by users who are looking for information.

5. Increase Website Visibility

Website visibility or visibility in search engines is very important if you want to get high traffic. So, adding an HTML sitemap can be one of the factors that can increase website visibility in search engines.

For example, if you have an article that has been crawled by a web crawler, the bot will also work to follow other links in the navigation menu.

So it's very important to create an HTML sitemap page that is linked in a menu section that is easily visible to both visitors and Google bots.
