Crawling and indexing tool

XML Sitemap Generator

Generate a sitemap from URLs you have already selected. The tool removes duplicates, validates absolute URLs and dates, warns about mixed origins, and creates a safe coding-agent deployment handoff.

Add an optional last-modified date after a comma or tab. Dates are claims about meaningful page changes, not crawl-priority controls.

Validate the file, publish it intentionally, then verify the live response. Inclusion does not guarantee crawling or indexing.
Result quality guidance

Small static website

Turn a reviewed route inventory into a clean XML file without running a crawler.

Migration URL set

Prepare the intended new canonical URLs after redirects and templates have been reviewed.

Developer handoff

Copy a deployment prompt that preserves the XML and requires live validation after implementation.

What it checks

Use the result as evidence, not a score.

  • Absolute HTTP and HTTPS URL syntax
  • Duplicate URL removal and fragment normalization
  • Optional lastmod date format
  • Origin count and the 50,000-entry limit
What it cannot check
  • Which pages belong in your canonical indexable set
  • Whether entered pages redirect, return errors, contain noindex, or declare another canonical
  • Deployment, submission, crawling, indexing, rankings, or traffic
How it works

Input, inspect, improve, verify.

The tool processes what you enter, shows a plain-language result, and gives you a safer next step. Make the change on your website, deploy it, then test the live page again.

Popular use cases

Useful before and after publishing.

Small static website

Migration URL set

Developer handoff

Copy a deployment prompt that preserves the XML and requires live validation after implementation.

Pro tips

Small checks that prevent avoidable mistakes.

  1. Generate from your source-of-truth route or database output when the site changes frequently.
  2. Include preferred canonical URLs, not every reachable parameter or redirecting version.
  3. Leave lastmod out when you cannot maintain it accurately.
  4. Deploy, validate, advertise, and inspect processing as separate steps.
Common issues and solutions

What to review when the result looks wrong.

Several hosts appear

Confirm whether cross-site submission is intentional and owned. Most ordinary website sitemaps should contain one deliberate origin.

A URL appears twice

The generator removes exact duplicates after fragment normalization and shows the affected input row.

The generated file becomes stale

Move generation into the CMS or build pipeline once manual maintenance is no longer reliable.

Frequently asked questions

Short answers before you make a change.

Does this generator crawl my website?

No. It converts the URLs you enter. This makes selection explicit and avoids pretending a shallow crawl found every canonical page.

Should I add priority or changefreq?

This generator omits them. Focus on accurate canonical locations and meaningful lastmod values where you can maintain them.

Where should sitemap.xml be published?

The site root is the simplest location for broad coverage, but the correct path depends on how the sitemap will be hosted and submitted.
