What is the XML Sitemap Generator?
The XML Sitemap Generator crawls a website and produces an XML sitemap — the machine-readable list of your pages that search engines use for discovery. Enter a URL, let the crawler follow your internal links, and download a standards-compliant `sitemap.xml` ready to submit to Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools.
A sitemap doesn't make pages rank — it makes them *findable*. It matters most for new sites with few external links, sites where important pages are buried deep in the navigation, and sites that publish content faster than crawlers naturally discover it.
How to use it
1. Enter your site's homepage URL.
2. Let the crawl complete — depth and page-count options let you match the tool's crawl to your site's size.
3. Download the generated `sitemap.xml`.
4. Review it before deploying: remove URLs that redirect or 404, and make sure only indexable pages are listed (no `noindex` pages, no duplicate parameter URLs).
5. Upload it to your document root so it resolves at `https://yourdomain.com/sitemap.xml`.
6. Submit it in Google Search Console (Sitemaps section) and Bing Webmaster Tools.
7. Add a `Sitemap:` line to your robots.txt pointing at the file.
Sitemap hygiene that actually matters
- Accuracy beats size. A sitemap full of dead or redirected URLs wastes crawl budget and erodes crawler trust — a crawler that keeps finding 404s trusts your sitemap less.
- Keep `lastmod` honest. Only update the last-modified date of pages that actually changed; a sitemap where every page claims "changed today" gets ignored.
- Split large sites. Sitemaps hold up to 50,000 URLs; beyond that, use a sitemap index file.
FAQ
How often should I regenerate my sitemap?
Whenever you add, remove, or significantly change pages — for most sites, that means regenerating it when content changes, not on a fixed daily schedule.
Does a sitemap guarantee indexing?
No. It's a discovery aid; ranking and indexing decisions still depend on content quality and site authority.
HTML sitemap or XML sitemap?
Both have roles: XML is for search engines, an HTML sitemap is a human-readable page for visitors. Most sites benefit from the XML file at minimum.
What if my site is huge?
Crawl by section and combine, or generate per-section sitemaps joined by a sitemap index.
