Sitemaps, llms.txt & Search Console

The discovery files 3dCMS generates so search engines and AI crawlers can find and read every page.

The interactive version has full-text search, a table of contents, and light/dark themes.


Publishing doesn't just build pages — it builds everything crawlers need to find and read them.

FileWhat it's for
sitemap.xmlEvery page in the site, with sensible priority and change-frequency hints.
robots.txtAllows the crawl, points to the sitemap, and keeps bots out of app-only URLs.
llms.txtAn llmstxt.org-style summary of the site and its pages, for AI assistants.
A plain-text pageA clean, low-noise /text/… version of every page for AI reading.
sitemap-index.xmlA domain-wide index of all your sites' sitemaps — the single URL to hand to Search Console.

Getting indexed faster

On every publish, 3dCMS sends an IndexNow ping so search engines like Bing learn about new and changed pages right away. For Google, submit your sitemap-index.xml in Search Console once, and it'll keep finding your pages as you publish.

One submission covers everything You only need to submit /sitemap-index.xml once — it lists every site you publish, so new sites are discovered automatically without another trip to Search Console.
