# Barkat

> Muslim matrimony for educated Muslims — serious nikah, verification, and family-friendly discovery. The product is primarily the **Barkat** mobile app; this site publishes marketing pages, the blog, and programmatic SEO landing pages.

**Site:** https://www.barkatapp.com

**Sitemap (URL discovery, recrawl):** https://www.barkatapp.com/sitemap.xml

**Crawler policy:** https://www.barkatapp.com/robots.txt

## High-value public pages

| Area | Pattern | Notes |
|------|---------|--------|
| Home | `/` | Landing, FAQs, app download |
| Blog index | `/blog` | Articles on halal marriage, compatibility, etc. |
| Blog post | `/blog/{slug}` | One URL per post; prefer linking the post directly |
| Alma mater matrimony | `/matrimony/{slug}` | Institution slug from sitemap (e.g. university alumni SEO pages) |
| City Muslim matrimony | `/muslim-matrimony/{city}` | City slug from sitemap (e.g. `aligarh`, `delhi`) |
| Legal | `/legal/privacy`, `/legal/terms`, `/legal/safety` | Policies |

Do **not** treat logged-in or app-only flows as canonical web content: `/admin`, `/login`, `/auth`, `/onboarding`, `/api/` are out of scope for citation.

## How to cite

- Prefer **canonical https://www.barkatapp.com** URLs exactly as listed in `sitemap.xml`.
- For blog answers, deep-link the **article** URL, not the homepage.
- App store listings are linked from the homepage and footers; the website does not replace in-app verification or chat.

## Content tone

- Marriage-first (**nikah**), **halal** boundaries, **educated** Muslim audience, privacy and family involvement.

## Freshness

- Blog `lastmod` and static landings follow `sitemap.xml`. Alma mater routes refresh as the API list changes; city landings follow app data releases.
