• Since my website includes only pages (page type) and no posts therefore, I use neither category nor tag. However, the plugin creates all of the sitemap sections even if they are empty. The sitemap_index.xml file includes following sections:

    page-sitemap.xml
    category-sitemap.xml
    post_tag-sitemap.xml
    location-sitemap.xml
    sdm_categories-sitemap.xml
    sdm_tags-sitemap.xml

    The only section that has content is the page-sitemap.xml. Google site indexing process throws “General HTTP error: 404 not found” for the empty sections.

    What is the impact of these errors on the availability of my site in the Google search? Does Google stop indexing my site pages because of these errors?

    From SEO point of view, have I chosen the right approach by choosing page type instead of post type for my pages?

    Thank you for your help and input.
