  CandyBlingz sitemap.

  Static curated list of every routable page that should appear in
  Google / Bing search results. Dynamic /p/{productId} routes are
  intentionally NOT enumerated here — there are tens of thousands of
  them, they change daily as the importers run, and Google discovers
  them via the internal links from the homepage + category pages
  faster than a static sitemap could keep up. A future enhancement
  (P3 in the umbrella plan) is to add a build-time generator that
  emits /sitemap-products.xml with the top-N most-clicked product URLs.

  <lastmod> reflects the last time the page TEMPLATE or its primary
  copy changed. The SEO keyword refresh (Memorial Day banner,
  Trending This Week / Under $100 inner tabs, per-category SEO copy)
  landed 2026-05-23 — that's the date we stamp on every page touched
  by that work. Update this when copy / structure changes again.
