About the Extension
Search engines like Google use image sitemaps to discover, crawl and index images more efficiently. However, not all images, thumbnails or image sizes are always fully included in the default sitemap. This extension closes that gap.
The extension automatically enhances the Shopware sitemap with image information and ensures that product and category images are properly included in the image sitemap. This helps search engines index your shop images more reliably and can improve your visibility in image search results.
Automatic image sitemap generation
The image sitemap is generated automatically based on the native Shopware sitemap. No separate sitemap, external tools or complex configuration are required. The extension integrates directly into Shopware’s existing sitemap generation.
All relevant images such as product images, category images and their different image sizes and thumbnails are automatically included in the image sitemap.
Benefits of an image sitemap
An image sitemap helps search engines find and index all important images of your shop. This can improve the visibility of your products in Google Images and bring additional traffic to your shop.
The extension works completely in the background and uses Shopware’s existing sitemap infrastructure. Your existing sitemap structure and customisations remain unchanged.
Technical integration
The extension uses Shopware’s native sitemap generation and integrates image information directly into the existing sitemap structure. No core files are modified and the extension is implemented in an update-safe way.
The extension is compatible with multiple sales channels, domains and individual sitemap configurations.
