What is a Sitemap?

A sitemap is a file that lists all the pages on your Website. It acts like a roadmap for search engines like Google or Bing, helping them:

  • Understand your site structure

  • Find new or updated pages

  • Index your content more efficiently

With a sitemap in place, your Website has a stronger foundation for visibility in search results—helping more potential clients find you online.

How to Access Your Sitemap

Your Real Geeks Website automatically includes a sitemap, so there’s nothing you need to set up.

To view your sitemap:

Add /sitemap.xml to your domain (Example: www.yourwebsite.com/sitemap.xml)

This file updates automatically as you add or edit Content Pages, ensuring search engines always have the latest version of your site structure.

Should You Create Your Own Sitemap?

In most cases, no.

We do not recommend creating a custom sitemap for most users. This option is intended for advanced marketing users with SEO experience. If you are not familiar with SEO best practices and sitemap formatting, you should use the default sitemap automatically generated by Real Geeks.

An incorrectly built sitemap can prevent pages from being indexed properly. The default Real Geeks sitemap is reliable, automatically updated, and best for the average agent.

For most agents, the Real Geeks generated sitemap is the most reliable and effective option.
