Sitemaps help the webmaster to inform the search engine about all the URLs on the website for easy crawling. A sitemap is an XML file that lists all the links on URL. It also includes the additional details about each URL such as when it was uploaded, how it is connected with other URL in the site, and how often it changes. This allows the search engine to crawl the website URLs strategically. They are the complement robots.txt am URL exclusion protocol.

Sitemaps are particularly beneficial on websites when:
some parts of the website are accessible via the browsable interface.
webmasters use rich Ajax, Silverlight, or Flash content that is not usually not worked by search engines.
the website is big and there is a possibility for the web crawlers to review some of the new or recently updated content.
websites have a number of pages that are private or not properly linked together, or
a website has less outbound links.
Sitemaps are an important feature in doing SEO for a website. A perfect SEO strategy should include creating a sitemap crawling new and recently uploaded links or pages. Most of the online companies like Upniche practicing creating Sitemap as a step while doing SEO for their clients' websites to improve the visibility of the website on any search engine.

A Sitemap is used for the search engine crawlers to follow the links to all your individual web pages so that it won’t miss out on
anything.
With the help of this, we could make the crawlers to crawl all the pages of our website.
sometimes it can help to hide certain pages from users so that it can be made uncrawlable.
We can provide Valid priority values have range interval [0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0].
Providing priority helps the crawler to understand the importance of each page for the spider
This would be much helpful for search engine optimization
