What is the Sitemap Generator?
The Sitemap Generator creates XML sitemaps that help search engines discover important pages on a website. It supports both manual URL lists and a safe same-domain crawl workflow.
Unlike simple generators that only return XML, this tool also creates plain URL lists, robots.txt sitemap snippets, sitemap index output, and a crawl audit table so SEO teams can review what was included before publishing.
How to use the Sitemap Generator
- Choose Manual URLs to paste important pages or use Crawl Website to discover same-domain links from a public URL.
- Set default lastmod, changefreq, and priority values in SEO Settings.
- Generate the XML sitemap and review URL count, noindex warnings, and XML size.
- Switch output views between XML Sitemap, URL List, robots.txt snippet, Sitemap Index, and Audit Table.
- Copy or download the sitemap and add it to your website root, then reference it in robots.txt and submit it in webmaster tools.

Sitemap Generator FAQ
What is an XML sitemap?
An XML sitemap is a structured list of important URLs that helps search engines discover and crawl website pages.
Can this tool crawl my website?
Yes. Crawl Website mode fetches a public URL and follows same-domain links up to a safe limit.
What is the maximum sitemap size?
The sitemap protocol limit is 50,000 URLs and 50MB uncompressed per sitemap file. Larger sites should use multiple sitemap files and a sitemap index.
Should I include lastmod?
Use lastmod only when the date is accurate. It is useful for crawlers when it reflects real page changes.
Where should I place the sitemap?
Usually place sitemap.xml at the website root and add a Sitemap line in robots.txt.
