Sitemap generator
Generate sitemap.xml file for your website. You can copy the generated sitemap.xml file and paste it in the root directory of your website.
Add URLs to build sitemap.xml.
What is a sitemap
A sitemap is a simple XML file that lists the important URLs of your site. Google and other search engines read this file to find pages faster. You usually keep the file name as sitemap.xml and upload it in the root folder of your domain (same place as robots.txt).
Manual mode vs crawl mode
In manual mode you paste your URLs yourself, one per line or separated by comma. Good when you already have a list from Excel or from your CMS. Crawl mode asks for your domain and we try to find links on your site automatically. Signed-in users get a higher page limit per crawl.
After you generate the file
Use Copy or Download here, then put the file on your server. In Google Search Console you can submit the sitemap URL so Google knows where to look. If you add new pages later, update the sitemap again and upload the new version.
FAQ
- Do I need a sitemap for a small website?
- It is not mandatory for very small sites but it still helps. Even five or ten pages can be in one sitemap so search engines do not miss a page.
- How many URLs can I add?
- In manual mode you can paste as many lines as you want in the box. In crawl mode there is a server limit per crawl; the tool will tell you if you hit the limit.
- Is the XML valid?
- Yes, we build standard sitemap XML that follows the usual format. You can open the file in a browser or validator if you want to double check.
- Can I use HTTPS URLs only?
- Yes. Put full URLs with https in the list. Mixing http and https on the same site is not ideal; pick one version and stick to it.
