Why sitemap? Sitemap is a file that shows all your website information and shows specific pages, content/articles. It also helps google to check the way your content are organized and also helps users to navigate your entire website easily.

Follow the steps below to successfully add a sitemap to your blogspot website

Login to your dashboard on blogger.com , create a new page by going to the left side on your panel , locate pages and click on it. Now click on new pages and create one. After creating the pages successfully, title it sitemap.
After doing that, switch to HTML and copy these codes below and paste it on the empty space .
