    Which type of site map are you using?

    Site maps are an essential SEO tool that allow for Google to index your site pages.

    And there are two types of site maps:

    1. An HTML sitemap is mostly used for your site visitors benefit to help them find their way around the site

    2. An XML sitemap is more for the benefit of search engines as it allows them to crawl your site in an easier manner.

    And, while both site maps have use, an HTML site map is most beneficial especially if you are a blogger. Do you agree?

    Absolutely Site Maps are very important for SEO. Also if you have video content on your sites don't forget to add a video Sitemap.
    Also people have suggested that adding a video Sitemap can help to get your other content indexed quicker too.

    I feel that sitemaps are often underestimated. In reality they are very important for SEO purposes. The fact that on a single page you can basically map out the contents of the whole site, with the various sections and links is just great. Simply put it is like a summary of your site, and this summary comes in handy for search engines. Navigation is also improved thanks to sitemaps and updating the site becomes much easier. In fact sitemaps are also helpful when some updates are carried out as they inform the search engines about this, and this in turn helps to get your pages indexed a bit more quickly. Any broken links can be dealt with more easily too when there is a sitemap. Many find sitemaps helpful to classify the content of the site. When considering all of these advantages it would be highly recommended to have a sitemap on your site. Many are in fact considering sitemaps as being an extension to their site, and as a way to lead visitors to find what they are looking for on the site. And, apart from this, at the same time search engine spiders will also be able to benefit from the sitemap too, and this will affect SEO.
