Free Online XML Sitemap Generator

A sitemap is an essential XML file that lists the important URLs on your website. It acts as a roadmap for search engines like Google and Bing, ensuring that your pages are crawled and indexed efficiently.

How to Use the Generator

  1. Paste URLs: Enter the absolute URLs of your website pages (one per line) in the input box above. Ensure they start with http:// or https://.
  2. Set Last Modified (Optional): Including a <lastmod> tag helps search engines know when your content was last updated.
  3. Set Change Frequency (Optional): The <changefreq> tag suggests how often the page is likely to change.
  4. Set Priority (Optional): The <priority> tag indicates the relative importance of the URL compared to other pages on your site (0.0 to 1.0).
  5. Generate and Download: Click "Generate Sitemap" and download the resulting `sitemap.xml` file to upload to the root directory of your website.

Is this tool secure?

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need an XML sitemap?
Yes, especially if your site is new, very large, or has pages that are isolated (not linked well internally). An XML sitemap helps search engines like Google quickly find and index your content.
Are the priority and changefreq tags required?
No, they are completely optional. While some search engines may use them as hints for crawl budgeting, many (like Google) primarily focus on the URL and the last modification date.
How many URLs can I generate at once?
Because this tool runs entirely in your browser, it can handle tens of thousands of URLs near-instantly without timing out or crashing your page. The maximum limit for a single standard sitemap.xml file is 50,000 URLs.
