Framer Sitemap: How to Find, Manage, and Submit Your Sitemap for SEO

Framer simplifies SEO management by automatically generating a sitemap.xml file for your website. This sitemap provides search engines with a structured overview of your site's pages, making it easier for them to crawl and index your content efficiently.

Finding Your Framer Sitemap URL

To view your sitemap, append /sitemap.xml to your domain. For example:

This website, with it’s home page at https://framertemplates.supply. Has the sitemap at https://framertemplates.supply/sitemap.xml.

This sitemap URL helps search engines understand your site's structure, which is crucial for SEO performance.

Ensuring All Pages Appear in Your Sitemap

For your sitemap to include all relevant pages, ensure that each page is set to be visible to search engines. In Framer, navigate to the page settings and enable the "Show page in search engines" option. This action allows the page to be listed in your sitemap and indexed by search engines.

Submitting Your Sitemap to Google Search Console

While Framer keeps your sitemap.xml up to date automatically, submitting it to Google Search Console can expedite the indexing process. Here's how:

1. Sign in to Google Search Console: Use your Google account to access the Google Search Console.

2. Select Your Property: In the sidebar, choose your website.

3. Navigate to the Sitemaps Section: Click on 'Sitemaps' under the 'Index' section.

4. Submit Your Sitemap URL: In the 'Add a new sitemap' field, enter sitemap.xml and click 'Submit'.

This submission informs Google about your sitemap's location, facilitating efficient crawling and indexing of your site's pages.

Updating & Resubmitting Your Sitemap

Whenever you make significant changes to your site's structure or content, it's advisable to resubmit your sitemap to Google Search Console. This practice ensures that search engines have the most current information about your site. To resubmit, follow the same steps outlined above. Google will process the updated sitemap accordingly.

By leveraging Framer's automatic sitemap.xml generation and proactively managing your site's presence in search engines, you can enhance your website's visibility and SEO performance.
