How Do I Go About Manually Adding an XML Sitemap to My Website? or What’s the Best Way to Handle Manu

Hey! Manually adding an xml sitemap isn’t too hard once you get the hang of it.

First, upload the sitemap.xml file to your root directory (usually public_html or www). Then, make sure it’s accessible by typing yourdomain.com/sitemap.xml in the browser.

For Google, you *can* ping them (just go to google.com/ping?sitemap=YOUR_SITEMAP_URL), but they’ll usually find it on their own.

If you wanna double-check, use Google Search Console to submit it directly.
