Here are the steps to add an XML sitemap to your Blogger blog:
Generate the XML sitemap - There are several online tools that can help you generate an XML sitemap for your Blogger blog. One such tool is the XML Sitemap Generator. Simply enter your blog's URL and the tool will generate the sitemap.

These tools allow generating sitemaps for your websites by entering URL.

Copy the sitemap - Once you have generated the XML sitemap, copy the entire code.
Go to your Blogger dashboard - Log in to your Blogger account and go to the dashboard of the blog where you want to add the XML sitemap.

Go to Settings > Search preferences - In the left-hand menu, click on "Settings" and then "Search preferences."

Enable custom robots.txt - Under the "Crawlers and indexing" section, you will see an option for "Custom robots.txt." Click on "Edit" next to this option.
