 * Upon activating Yoast SEO, it will automatically generate an XML sitemap which
   can be found at yourwebsite.com/sitemap_index.xml
 * You do not have to import your old sitemap, but we do recommend [submitting the sitemap built by Yoast SEO to the search engines](https://kb.yoast.com/kb/submit-sitemap-search-engines/).
