Customize the root domain on your sitemap.xml address in your robots.txt file

If you connect multiple Webflow projects to a single domain using reverse proxy, you’ve probably had some SEO challenges with the automatically generated sitemap.xml address Webflow creates within your robots.txt file. If that sounds familiar, we have good news. 

Today we’re shipping a small (but mighty) update for Enterprise customers that lets you remove the automatically generated sitemap.xml address within your robots.txt file and input your own. This makes it much smoother to connect multiple projects on a single domain with reverse proxy and ensure search engines understand they’re part of the same domain.

To remove the default sitemap.xml address and input your own:

1. Head to the SEO tab of your site settings
2. Enable the toggle to “Remove sitemap.xml from robots.txt”
3. Input the sitemap for your core domain in the robots.txt field above
4. Save changes and hit publish

And that’s it! If you have any questions or need help, feel free to get in touch with your account manager for more information.
