===== Importance for SEO =====

Search engines like well organized websites. Especially on large websites with many sub-pages it's important that [[crawler|crawlers]] find all pages quickly and don't miss anything.

This means that the most important pages should be linked already on the [[homepage|home page]]. Files like the [[sitemap|sitemap.xml]] and the [[robots.txt]] also make it easier for crawlers to crawl a website.
