XML vs. HTML Sitemaps for E-commerce: Which to Use?

Hi everyone,

I'm currently optimizing my e-commerce site, and I'm a bit confused about the differences between XML and HTML sitemaps. Can anyone explain the specific roles each type of sitemap plays in the context of e-commerce SEO? Additionally, is it beneficial to use both XML and HTML sitemaps together, or is one sufficient?

I came across an informative blog on e-commerce sitemap best practices  that provides some details on this topic. If you have any additional insights or experiences, I'd love to hear them!

Hello!

XML sitemaps are for search engines (like backstage passes), while HTML sitemaps are for users (like friendly greeters at the entrance). Both matter for e-commerce SEO!
