- Helps to analyse and to keep track of changes not just internally, but like crawlers see it. 
- Webmastertools provide more data on documents in Sitemaps. Biggest bonus: crawling gets much faster.


Building a complete sitemap:
- All pages included, which are self canonicalized
- Just not noindex pages (but they will not have a self canonical in the future anyways)
- One main sitemapindex in /sitemap.xml including the following:
- One sitemap for each locale. F.e. /de/sitemap-de.xml
- No subdomains included
- All pages get an <lastmod> and it gets updated it whenever anything changes on that page (code or content)
- Can be cached but needs to be the fastest document on our site, updates to the sitemap can be delayed though caching, thats not important for the normal sitemaps. If we decide later to have a news sitemap, the update  interval needs there to be under 10 Minutes, if thats important to know now.
- When we this complete sitemap, I will try  with the help of :jmize a scoring of all included pages based on importance to the download funnel, organic traffic, social shares and overall traffic. With that scoring we should set <priority> so the crawler can differnciate between important and less important pages. There is very little space to sculp crawling, but it will help us internally to analyse as well.
