Ensure your Blogger site is fully optimized for Google and Bing search consoles with a correct XML sitemap. Many bloggers—both new and experienced—mistakenly rely on sitemaps like:

⚠️ Warning: This sitemap is incorrect, as it only includes posts and excludes pages.
Here’s why it matters:
- ✅ Google recommends a sitemap that covers both Posts and Pages in Blogger.
- ❌ Using an incomplete sitemap slows down indexing and ranking of your pages, even though posts may still get indexed.
- 🚀 Correctly structured sitemaps improve visibility and performance for your entire blog.

- Our templates provide schema, meta tags, and descriptions for both posts and pages—unlike other templates that only support posts.
- You can verify schema support using the Google Schema Test Tool.
- After installing our template, generate your optimized XML sitemap with the tool below to maximize SEO benefits.
