How To Find your Sitemap

Your sitemap url can be used in Moonlit for importing your website pages into your knowledge base.

A sitemap is a file that helps search engines understand the structure of your website. It's also helpful for users to navigate through all the pages of a site. Here's how you can easily find your sitemap:

1. Look for Common URLs
Most sitemaps are accessible by visiting a predictable URL. Simply add /sitemap.xml to the end of your website's domain. For example:
https://yourwebsite.com/sitemap.xml
If your website follows standard practices, this should take you directly to the sitemap. Other common URLs to try include:

  • https://yourwebsite.com/sitemap_index.xml
  • https://yourwebsite.com/sitemap.txt
  • https://yourwebsite.com/sitemap
  • https://yourwebsite.com/index-sitemap.xml

2. Use Google Search Console
If you have access to Google Search Console for your website, you can check the Sitemaps section. Google Search Console shows the sitemaps that have been submitted for indexing, making it an easy way to locate and verify your sitemap.

3. Check the Website Footer
Some websites provide a direct link to their sitemap in the footer. Scroll down to the bottom of any page, and you might find a link labeled "Sitemap" that takes you right there.

4. Use a Sitemap Finder Tool
There are free online tools that can help you locate a sitemap if you can't find it manually. Just enter your website's URL into these tools, and they'll scan to locate any available sitemaps. Seomater offers a free one here.

5. Contact Your Web Developer

If you still can't find the sitemap, reach out to your web developer or website admin. They should be able to provide the exact location or help you create one if it doesn't exist.

With these simple steps, you should be able to easily locate your sitemap. Having access to your sitemap is important for ensuring search engines can effectively crawl and index your website.
