sitemap.xml reachable

SEOWeight 1.5% (This check's share of the SEO score)Score 100

What this is

Whether the site has a sitemap (sitemap.xml), a list of the site's important URLs made for search engines.

Why it matters

A sitemap helps Google find new and updated pages faster, which matters most for large or new sites. Google can still find pages through links without one, just more slowly.

What counts as passing

Passes when a sitemap opens with content, either at the location named in robots.txt or at /sitemap.xml; fails when it is empty; not scored when no sitemap is found.
