FAQ

Where is my sitemap located?

Most sites place their sitemap at /sitemap.xml. You can also check /robots.txt for a Sitemap: directive that points to the correct URL. Next.js App Router generates a sitemap automatically from app/sitemap.ts.

What is a sitemap index?

Large sites split their sitemap into multiple files and link them from a sitemap index. The index file contains references to individual sitemap files, each with up to 50,000 URLs.
