So, you’re looking for site map examples on Google, eh? Well, you’ve landed in the right place, because today I’m going to be providing you with a few site map examples. However, before I provide any site map examples, it’s important that you know about the different types of site maps available, that way you can know exactly what example you’re looking for.
HTML Site Map
These site maps display a list of pages and the hierarchy of these pages for users to view all in one place. They usually come with a table of contents, allowing users to easily find what they’re looking for on a website that has an HTML site map. HTML site maps can either be created manually, requiring you to list out the pages of your website on another page dedicated to the site map, or they can be created with an HTML site map generator.
HTML Site Map Examples
XML Site Map
XML site maps are used by search engines such as Google. These site maps, in addition to displaying pages and posts on a website, also provide information on changes and how often they occur on specific pages. This information is used by web crawlers to help index and recrawl a web page. XML site maps can be created using a generator or they can be created using a WordPress plugin for those of you operating your website with the WordPress CMS.

Visual Site Map
These are site maps that, similarly to HTML site maps, are created more for visitors than they are for search engines. However, unlike HTML site maps, visual sitemaps are much more interactive and tolerable to look at. Visual site maps can be created using a WordPress plugin such as Visual Sitemap.
