A Quick-Start Guide to AIOSEO Sitemap Setup

Your sitemap is enabled by default the moment you install AIOSEO. For most users, no further action is needed! But if you want to fine-tune your settings for perfect control, follow these steps:

  • Review your default sitemap. Go to AIOSEO » Sitemaps » General Sitemap and click the Open Sitemap button. This will show you the live, indexed sitemap that AIOSEO has already created for your site.
  • Choose which content to include. In the Sitemap Settings, you can choose exactly what to include. Uncheck the “Include All Post Types” or “Include All Taxonomies” boxes to select or deselect specific content like posts, pages, or product categories.
  • Exclude low-value archives. We recommend keeping the Date Archives and Author Archives disabled. This prevents low-value pages from being included in your sitemap, focusing Google's attention on your most important content.
  • Configure sitemap indexes. For most sites, the default Enable Sitemap Indexes setting is best. If you have a small site (under a few hundred URLs), you can disable this to create a single sitemap file instead of a grouped index.
  • Set advanced options (Optional). Use the Advanced Settings tab to exclude specific posts or pages, or to set crawling priority and frequency for different content types. For most users, the default automated settings are ideal.
  • Submit your sitemap to Google. Copy your sitemap URL and submit it to Google Search Console. AIOSEO will automatically notify Google of any future updates, so you only have to do this once. (Here’s a WordPress tutorial.)

FAQs About XML Sitemaps

 Get quick answers about creating sitemaps and using the AIOSEO Wordpress sitemap plugin. If your question is not listed here, then please contact us.

Do I need a sitemap?

Sitemaps help Google and other search engines to find all the pages of your website.

An XML sitemap is a simple list of all the content on your website. Your XML sitemap file is hidden from your human visitors, but search engines like Google can see it. The sitemap helps search engine bots see all the content on your website in one place.

Without a sitemap, some of your web pages may never be included in Google search results, and won't get any traffic.

Sitemaps also help you tell Google which pages you DON'T want included in search results. This can help with duplicate content issues and keyword cannibalization.

As part of your SEO strategy, a sitemap can help you to improve your domain authority and unlock more traffic from Google.

Does WordPress generate a sitemap?

WordPress includes a basic sitemap without a plugin, which includes your posts, post types, categories, tags, and archive pages. This includes anything you might have no-indexed, which can cause errors on your site.

Unfortunately, there's no way to customize the default sitemap without knowing PHP code.

Need a better solution?

The AIOSEO WordPress Sitemap Generator is easy to use and offers all the features you need to optimize your site for maximum traffic. With AIOSEO, you can make sure that Google knows which pages are the most important on your site, and which to ignore.

Why use All in One SEO sitemaps instead of the default WordPress sitemap?

If you want more control over your sitemaps, All in One SEO is the way to go.

AIOSEO allows you to customize your XML sitemaps so you can boost your traffic and prevent errors in Google Search Console. 

You can automatically generate a custom sitemap and submit it to Google, Bing, Yahoo, Yandex, and other search engines. AIOSEO will also automatically notify each one whenever you publish, update, or delete content on your site.

You get to choose to include or exclude:

  • Images and galleries
  • Password-protected posts
  • Custom post types
  • Media attachment pages
  • Archive pages for tags, categories, authors
  • And more

Plus, your sitemaps will always be dynamically generated. That means that your sitemap is always up-to-date whenever it’s visited.

Does All in One SEO include video sitemaps?

Yes, with All in One SEO you get 1-click support for video sitemaps, so you can rank in Google's video carousel widget and grow your traffic.

See our Video Sitemap Generator for more details.

How do I add my sitemap to Google News?

Google News sends 6 billion clicks per month to publishers all around the world, so you don't want to miss out on this traffic.

All in One SEO has a Google News Sitemap feature that makes it easy to create sitemaps for your news articles.

With this feature enabled, Google is informed of all news articles listed on your site within the last 48 hours, so they show up in the Google News Feed as quickly as possible.

Do I need coding skills to use AIOSEO?

Absolutely not. You can optimize your WordPress SEO without any coding knowledge. All in One SEO is one of the most beginner friendly WordPress SEO plugin.

What types of sitemaps does AIOSEO offer?

In addition to XML sitemaps, we also offer RSS and HTML sitemap generation.
