It`s in the sitemap but not on the site

So my client is a plastic surgeon in NYC and I have a bunch of high quality articles such as: "Best NYC surgeons..." and "Top Cosmetic clinic in NYC.." He does not mind if it shows up on the website but I want to only add it via HTML and XML sitemaps, I wont feature it on the blog. Is that going to still help the site to rank better in terms of keywords etc?

Brenda Malone: I think we are missing some of your thoughts-- High Quality what? backlinks? reviews? posts?
Michael Martinez: Brenda Malone " high quality NYC ... articles" about ("Best NYC surgeons..." and "Top Cosmetic clinic in NYC..)" topics.
Sanket Maheshwari: Put it under some "In the News" page and show it as a feed.
Sanket Maheshwari: Also, your question is kind of confusing
Jen Bradburn: So you want to add the content but not so it can be found by visitors?

If so, then no, it wonâ€™t help, you might find with the latest GSC features they donâ€™t even Indic it if itâ€™s not linked from other areas of your website
× ×ª×Ÿ ×’××™×“××™: Jen Bradburn Yes. So I would link out of it, it will not be linked within my website besides the HTML sitemap and the XML sitemap.
Tim Capper: The whole point of content is: To try and convert the reader, in your case, make a booking or an enquiry
× ×ª×Ÿ ×’××™×“××™: Tim Capper I understand that, but I want it to be visible from search and not from the website.
Richard Hearne: Define "high quality". Did your client write these him/herself?
× ×ª×Ÿ ×’××™×“××™: Richard Hearne My content writers did!
× ×ª×Ÿ ×’××™×“××™: I fixed the text in the question to be a bit clearer. Thanks
