Sitemaps

Edge Delivery Services generates a sitemap automatically at /sitemap.xml whenever you publish content. No configuration is needed for a working sitemap.

What gets included automatically

Every page you publish is included in the sitemap. This covers marketing pages, landing pages, category pages you author directly, and any other document-based content.

Product pages are not included automatically. If your developer has configured AEM Commerce prerender, those pages appear in the sitemap. To get them included, contact your developer.

Submit your sitemap to Google Search Console

In Google Search Console , open the Sitemaps section for your property, enter your sitemap URL (typically https://www.yoursite.com/sitemap.xml), and choose Submit. Google starts crawling the URLs within a few days, and you can check indexing status and any errors in Search Console.

Multiple sitemaps

Large catalogs or multi-language sites may have more than one sitemap file. Ask your developer to give you the complete list of sitemap URLs, then submit each one to Google Search Console.

When to involve a developer

For most storefronts, the automatic sitemap is sufficient. Contact your developer when:

• Product pages are missing from the sitemap and you need them included for SEO.
• Your site supports multiple languages and search engines are indexing the wrong locale.
• Your catalog has more than 50,000 products. See File and content limits for the per-file URL and size limits.
• You need custom configuration such as hreflang tags for a multi-store setup.

If you recently restructured your site URLs, set up Redirects to preserve SEO value from old URLs while the sitemap points search engines to the new ones.
