Free Sitemap Generator

The result is a standard XML sitemap in the sitemaps.org 0.9 format: a UTF-8 file with one url entry per page, each holding the page's full address in loc. Every value is entity-escaped, so an address with an ampersand in its query string is written as the protocol requires. You can copy the file or download it as sitemap.xml and upload it to the root of your site.

A page gets a lastmod date only when your server sent a valid Last-Modified header for it. Nothing is guessed: a page without that header has no lastmod, rather than today's date or the date of the crawl. Google says it uses lastmod only when the value is consistently and verifiably accurate, so a missing date is better than a made-up one.

The file has no priority or changefreq tags. Google says it ignores both, and inventing values for them would only add noise.

The generator starts at the address you enter and follows the links on each page, breadth first, so the pages closest to your start page come first. It stays on your site: the www and bare forms of your domain count as one site, but other subdomains and other sites are never crawled, because a sitemap may only list URLs from a single host.

• robots.txt is read before any page, and its rules are obeyed for our crawler (user agent token AzuqeTools), falling back to the rules for every crawler.
• Requests are spaced out evenly, at most 5 a second with 2 at a time, so the crawl never floods your server.
• If your robots.txt sets a Crawl-delay for our crawler or for every crawler, the crawl waits that long between pages, up to 10 seconds, and the result says so. Google ignores Crawl-delay, but we follow it.
• If your site answers with a rate limit or a block, or with several server errors in a row, the crawl stops instead of pushing on.
• A redirect to another site is noted and never followed, so the crawl never touches pages that are not yours.

One run keeps up to 500 pages and crawls for about 2 minutes. When a site is larger than that, the sitemap covers the first pages found and the result says so plainly, so you never mistake a partial file for the whole site.

Google asks for the canonical, indexable version of each page in a sitemap. So the generator leaves a page out when listing it would send search engines mixed signals, and counts each one by reason:

Addresses that differ only by a #fragment, tracking parameters such as utm_source, gclid or fbclid, session ids, or the order of their query parameters are treated as one page, so the sitemap lists each page once.

1. Check the list of skipped URLs. A page you expected in the sitemap that shows up as noindex or blocked usually points to a setting you did not mean to leave on.
2. Upload the file to the root of your site, so it is reachable at an address such as https://example.com/sitemap.xml.
3. Add a line such as Sitemap: https://example.com/sitemap.xml anywhere in your robots.txt, so every crawler can find it.
4. Submit the sitemap in Google Search Console. Google treats a sitemap as a hint, so it is not a promise that every page will be indexed.

A sitemap made by one crawl goes stale as you publish and remove pages. Run the generator again after larger changes, or use a sitemap your site builder or CMS keeps up to date and check it with the sitemap checker.
