Having both an XML sitemap for Google to index and placing an link on every page in your footer menu to an internal sitemap page/s is very important. Your HTML SITEMAP and XML SITEMAP will be very important to have in place. Make sure your HTML SITEMAP does not take the link count to over 100 links on a single page. The BIG 3 search engines suggest that you try and keep your links to a minimum per page, ideally below 100 links. This means you must aim to produce multiple site map pages where the 100th link is going to /sitemap2.html.
