Which sitemap is better for Google?

Post by divyansh »

In my point of view sitemap.xml is better than sitemap.html

But I need your suggestions. Thanks..

I also think that sitemap.xml is better than sitemap.html. Not only me but also a big number of webmaster prefer to xml sitemap.

Well, answers had been given, so I'll just support them. Xml sitemaps are recommended by Google.

Both Xml and html sitemaps are good but still I think Google gives a bit more preference to Xml sitemaps.

Google actually likes both and you can watch a clip about it at the Google Webmaster Central Channel on Youtube.

xml sitemap is for search engine purpose, and html sitemap is for user purpose.
