How do I link to my store's sitemap?

Your store has two kinds of sitemap, and they work differently:

  • XML sitemap at yourstore.com/sitemap.xml: this is for search engines, not visitors. It works automatically and does not need a link on your homepage.
  • Site Map page: a visitor-friendly page that is created automatically with your store's default pages.

Add a sitemap link to your menu

You can add up to five custom links to your store's top menu, pointing anywhere you like, including your sitemap.

  1. In your store admin, go to Design > Links.
  2. Open the Header tab.
  3. Find a free Navigation - Custom Link slot (1 to 5).
  4. Enter the link, for example /sitemap.xml or the address of your Site Map page, and the text you want to show in the menu.
  5. Save. The link appears in your store menu on desktop and mobile.

If you would rather show a link somewhere other than the menu, for example just before the footer, you can add one with the Add Custom HTML feature:

<a href="/sitemap.xml">Sitemap</a>
