How to use this sitemap

The sitemap above lists every public page on this site. The list is also published as an XML sitemap at /sitemap.xml for crawlers.

If you are a reader looking for a specific topic, the editorial guides are the longest pages and the best entry points. The safety pages cover account, login, customer-care, app-download, delete-account, and responsible-play topics. The about pages cover methodology, contact, privacy, terms, and the sitemap itself.

If you are a search-engine crawler, the canonical URL for every page is the absolute HTTPS URL. The affiliate redirect route at /Login/playnow is excluded from the sitemap and carries noindex.

How to use this sitemap

Reading order for new visitors

If you are new to the site, start with the how-to-play guide. It explains the league setup screen, the roster lock rules, and the weekly cadence that every other guide assumes you already know.

After that, the scoring-settings guide explains why the same player scores differently across leagues. The draft guide covers the tier-based method that survives draft-night surprises.

If you are deciding whether to actually sign in and play, the is-it-legal page lists the questions you should answer for yourself before you deposit any money. The format review then explains which ESPN Fantasy format fits which kind of player.

For safety topics — login, customer care, app downloads, deleting the account, responsible play — start with the login-safety guide and follow the related links from there.

Editorial notes

How this site is maintained

This site is maintained by a small editorial team. Every page carries a "Last reviewed" date in the page banner. The editorial review cycle is monthly; evergreen content is reviewed twice a year.

If you find an error or have a topic request, the fastest way to reach us is by email at the address on the contact page. We respond within five working days for editorial enquiries and within two working days for press enquiries.

Maintenance

How this sitemap is kept current

The HTML sitemap on this page is updated whenever a new page is published or an existing page is moved. The XML sitemap at /sitemap.xml is regenerated at the same time.

Last updated date appears at the bottom of the XML sitemap. The "Last reviewed" date on every page banner is the editorial review date for that page; the sitemap is a separate artefact updated only when pages are added or moved.

Updates

How to track changes

Every page on this site carries a "Last reviewed" date in the page banner. Major structural changes (a new section, a redesigned page, a new editorial guide) appear in the homepage's review log section.

Check the homepage's "Recently reviewed" section for the latest editorial changes. The list is updated every editorial review cycle.

Search the site

How to find what you need

This site does not include a search box because the page count is small and the navigation covers most reader needs. If you cannot find a specific page from the menu or sitemap, here are the most likely places to look.

  1. If you are looking for how to play: the how-to-play guide covers league setup, weekly cadence, and playoffs.
  2. If you are looking for scoring settings: the scoring-settings guide explains why league settings override generic advice.
  3. If you are looking for draft strategy: the draft guide covers tier-based drafting with three fallbacks per slot.
  4. If you are looking for waiver advice: the waiver wire guide covers FAAB bid sizing and cut-candidate tests.
  5. If you are looking for safety topics: the login-safety guide, customer-care guide, app-download guide, delete-account guide, and responsible-play guide cover the safety topics in order.

How to read the homepage

The homepage is the longest page on this site. It is structured as a game-week desk rather than a marketing landing page. The sections, in order:

  1. Answer-first identity strip with the independent-guide disclosure.
  2. Utility scoreboard hero with sport and format selectors.
  3. This-week decisions table — a routing table keyed by user goal.
  4. Scoring-settings warning card with worked standard vs full-PPR examples.
  5. Draft-to-playoffs season timeline.
  6. Weekly lineup workflow (the Saturday-to-Sunday five-step routine).
  7. Waiver + FAAB decision framework with conservative, balanced, and aggressive bids.
  8. Sport-specific guide rail.
  9. Verified facts box (what is known, what must be verified by the reader).
  10. Official access desk — where to find the publisher and account-safety warnings.
  11. Recently reviewed guides.
  12. Responsible participation notice.
  13. FAQ accordion.
  14. Closing contextual action.
