    A sitemap is a diagrammatic representation of a hierarchical system. It usually depicts the parent-sibling relationship between pages in a website, showing how sub pages might be arranged underneath their parent groupings. This arrangement forms a map of the site.

    A sitemap enables Google and other search engines to better crawl your site, as it provides the search engine crawlers with the organization of your site’s content. In allowing search engine crawlers to more intelligently crawl your site, you can improve your search result rankings and bring in more traffic. That is as long as your site’s content is well-prepared and appealing to web users.

    What is a Sitemap? In simple terms, a Sitemap is an XML file that is full of your individual webpage's URLs. It's like an archive of every webpage in your website. This file should be easily discoverable in your site in order for search engine crawlers to stumble upon it.

    Like a map which shows a diagrammatic representation of an area of land or sea showing physical features, cities, roads, etc.. A sitemap helps visitors and search engine bots easily find all your pages form a single location.

    A site map could be of

    HTML sitemap - helps visitors navigate your website easily
    XML sitemap - helps bots find all your pages easily
    While there is no limitation for a HTML site, XML sitemap file is limited to 50MB (uncompressed) with a maximum of 50,000 URLs. For that reason, if you have a very big website having 50K urls, you can nest the site maps.

    There are many free XML sitemap generators there you can use to create a sitemap upto 500 urls.
