Setup Pro Sitemaps Correctly
Budget: $30 – $250 AUD
This travel products website is built purely with custom PHP, HTML and is already connected to Pro Sitemaps, which has been producing XML files and updating Google.
The problem is that Google is picking up thousands of parameter-driven and near-duplicate URLs that bloat the index and dilute ranking power.
We are changing to SEO friendly Urls and when done, we want the sitemap to be run to pick up the changes.
I need someone who knows Pro Sitemaps (or similar generators) inside out to:
• Reconfigure the crawl so variable, dynamic parameters and any duplicate-content patterns are dropped before the XML is rebuilt.
• Regenerate a clean XML sitemap and verify it in Google Search Console.
• If required, adjust robots.txt, URL parameter handling, and canonical tags so the fix sticks.
I will provide Pro Sitemaps access. Your work is done when Search Console reports only the intended canonical pages and the new sitemap passes validation with no excluded-by-noindex or duplicate warnings.
Deadline: Wednesday
