Exporting and downloading the sitemap
Your task/initial situation
You have already defined the structure of your sitemap (see Adapting the sitemap structure) and would now like to export your sitemap, for example to upload it to Google.
Exporting the sitemap
- In the back end of JTL-Shop, open the Sitemap export page via Administration > Export > Sitemap.
- First click on the button Create sitemap again now. This way you can be sure that the sitemap you download contains all the latest data.
- Click on the download to download the file sitemap_index.xml or copy the address of the file sitemap_index.xml to enter it directly into a search engine.
Uploading the sitemap to search engines
You can either upload the downloaded file sitemap_index.xml or the link to all common search engines. In the following we will give you a few hints. However, as these are third-party services, we recommend that you check the search engine operators’ sites for information on how exactly the submission of a sitemap works. All services offered usually require the registration of your website first.
