# Sitemaps - **Website:** - **Primary alias:** `sitemaps.org` ## Description Sitemaps.org is a leading brand in the field of webmaster tools, offering a protocol that enables webmasters to inform search engines about the pages on their websites available for crawling. Sitemaps are XML files that provide URLs for a site along with additional metadata, such as the last update, frequency of changes, and importance relative to other URLs. This information allows search engines to intelligently crawl the site and supplement the data they gather from links within and outside the site. While using the Sitemap protocol doesn't guarantee inclusion in search engines, it significantly enhances the ability of web crawlers to effectively explore your website. Sitemaps.org's Sitemap 0.90 is widely adopted and supported by major search engines like Google, Yahoo!, and Microsoft. Stay on top of your web presence with Sitemaps.org and optimize your site's visibility. ## Industries - 🖥 Computers Electronics and Technology - 🖥 Search Engines _(under Computers Electronics and Technology)_ ## Colors | Name | Hex | Theme | | --- | --- | --- | | Red Berry | #990000 | accent | | Oxford Blue | #3a4956 | dark | | Havelock Blue | #5aa0d9 | light | --- _Source: _ _See [/llms.txt](/llms.txt) for a full list of agent-readable pages, and [/auth.md](/auth.md) for how agents authenticate._
