Free Sitemap Generator

An XML sitemap is a file that lists all the important pages on your website, helping search engines discover and index your content more efficiently. It includes metadata like when each page was last updated, how often it changes, and how important it is relative to other pages. While not required, a sitemap significantly improves indexation for new sites, large sites, and sites with complex navigation.

Enter your website URL and select crawl depth and page limit. Our tool crawls your site starting from the homepage, follows internal links, and discovers pages up to your configured limits. For each page, it extracts the title, detects the page type, auto-assigns changefreq and priority scores, and flags any issues like broken links or noindex pages. Finally, it generates a validated XML sitemap and a visual tree diagram.

Changefreq tells search engines how often a page is likely to change. Our tool auto-detects this based on page type: homepage and news pages get "daily", blog posts and product pages get "weekly", static pages like About and Contact get "monthly", and archived content gets "yearly". You can customize these values before downloading.

Priority scores (0.0 to 1.0) tell search engines which pages are most important on your site. Our scoring algorithm considers three factors: depth from homepage (closer = higher), internal link count (more links = higher), and page type (homepage = 1.0, category = 0.8, blog post = 0.6). The result is a balanced priority distribution across your site.

After generating your sitemap, download the XML file and upload it to your website root directory (e.g., yourdomain.com/sitemap.xml). Then go to Google Search Console, select your property, navigate to Sitemaps, enter the URL of your sitemap, and click Submit. Google will then crawl and index the pages listed in your sitemap.

Our crawler automatically excludes non-HTML assets (images, CSS, JS, PDFs), external links, pages blocked by robots.txt, and pages with noindex meta tags. You can also configure max crawl depth and max pages to further limit the scope.
