What are the differences between an HTML sitemap and an XML sitemap?

XML sitemap protocol is specifically intended for search engine spiders
HTML site map is linked to from every single page of your website. We need a HTML sitemap to give our users a unique experience by promoting user orientation.

The XML site map feeds Google spider so it can see what pages you have on your website, including all the internal pages. XML sitemaps also connect your web pages more efficiently. For instance, if you have a lot of posts or pages and they are not necessarily all linked to from the homepage, you really need a place where Google can find out what you have on the site.

You need the HTML sitemap, as well. Now this is just a page with links on it, preferable key-worded links that describes what that page is about so that a user can click on the site map and see exactly what you have on your website. It makes the process simpler because often times users are unfamiliar with your site and the information you have on it. Because you are familiar with your business and website does not mean that everyone else is. Also, there are many people who might not know how to navigate websites all that well. Having an HTML sitemap makes it easier for these people because they can just go to your sitemap, click on what they want, and get taken to that location. So HTML is important for the user and also important to track how visitors use your website as well.

The simplest clarification is that XML is primarily for the search engines whereas HTML is written for the users. A XML sitemap protocol is specifically meant for programme spiders. At its root, XML may be a file that has all the behind the scenes activity on an internet website.

The main difference between the two versions are that HTML sitemaps are easily read and understood by users while XML sitemaps are created for search engines. An XML sitemap is a file intended to be read by search engine robots. This file includes a lot of behind the scenes activity of a webpage.

The difference is that XML sitemaps are written for search engines and HTML sitemaps are written for humans. An XML sitemap is specifically written for search engine spiders. A search engine spider can quickly and easily extract all the important pieces of information about your site by looking at the XML file..
this is the different of HTML and XML.!
