  sitemap.xml — funofficepools.com
  Drafted 2026-08-01. See _planning/seo_plan.md

  Only genuinely public, indexable pages are listed. Deliberately excluded:
    createpool.php / joinpool.php  — 302 to login when logged out
    login.php                      — 301
    help_faq.php                   — include fragment, no <title>
    index_partners.php             — LISTED below as of 2026-08-09. It is a real page;
                                      robots.txt's old "Disallow: /index_" rule had been
                                      blocking it by accident. Do not re-broaden that rule.

  NOTE: the six newPoolInfo.php?Pool_ID= URLs below only became distinct pages when
  newPoolInfo.php was changed to render one panel instead of six. Do not upload this
  sitemap without also uploading newPoolInfo.php and newpoolinfo/panel-*.php, or Google
  will be pointed at six URLs that still serve identical text.

  <lastmod> values are real last-change dates from git, not invented. Keep them
  honest — a sitemap with fabricated lastmod dates gets its lastmod ignored.
  <priority> and <changefreq> are omitted; Google ignores both.

  <!-- The bare https://www.funofficepools.com/newPoolInfo.php is deliberately NOT listed
       (removed 2026-08-09). With no Pool_ID it defaults to the nflncaafw panel, so it is
       byte-identical to the ?Pool_ID=nflncaafw URL below and now canonicalises to it. A
       sitemap should only list canonical URLs — listing both was asking search engines to
       index the same page twice. The bare URL stays perfectly valid and internally linked;
       it just resolves to the canonical one. Same reason poolinfo.php's bare URL is absent.

       Marketing tier. One page per pool type since the 2026-08-01 split; each renders
       only its own panel, so the six URLs no longer serve identical text. -->

  <!-- Detailed rules pages. Six genuinely distinct pages (unique titles and body
       content per pool type) — the reference tier that newPoolInfo.php links to via
       "Detailed Rules". NOT duplicates of newPoolInfo.php; see §3.10 of the review. -->
