Sitemaps and Site Indexes: What They Are and Why You Should Have Them by
Chiara Fox


Sitemaps and site indexes are forms of supplemental navigation. They give
users a way to navigate a site without having to use the global navigation.
By providing a way to visualize and understand the layout and structure of
the site, a sitemap can help a lost or confused user find her way.
