Discovery and indexing

What is an XML sitemap?

An XML sitemap is a machine-readable list of important canonical pages that helps search crawlers discover URLs, especially on new, large or deeply nested sites.

A sitemap cannot force indexing and does not replace internal links, canonical tags, robots rules or content quality. A clean sitemap should contain only successful, indexable URLs.

Generation scope

CRAWL

Bounded same-site crawl

Limits host, depth, page count, time and response size while blocking private targets.

INDEX

Index signal filtering

Excludes errors, noindex pages, non-canonical URLs and robots-blocked paths.

XML

Standards-based XML

Produces a UTF-8 urlset that can be copied or downloaded as sitemap.xml.

Why generate a clean sitemap?

Submitting redirects, 404s, noindex pages or duplicates wastes crawl attention and sends conflicting indexing signals.

Improve page discovery

Give crawlers a focused list of important, indexable pages.

Reduce index conflicts

Filter obvious status, noindex, canonical and robots problems before submission.

Keep the crawl controlled

Review crawl limits and skipped reasons before downloading the XML.

How does the sitemap generator work?

The tool starts from one public URL and follows only same-origin HTML links. Results use short caching and are not stored as history.

  1. 01

    Validate the seed

    Normalize the URL, resolve public IPs and reject local or reserved networks.

  2. 02

    Crawl within limits

    Traverse same-origin pages with bounded depth, count, concurrency and size.

  3. 03

    Filter index signals

    Review status, content type, noindex, canonical and robots rules.

  4. 04

    Build the XML

    Deduplicate and escape URLs, then copy or download sitemap.xml.

XML sitemap generator FAQ

Does a sitemap guarantee indexing?

No. It helps discovery; indexing still depends on crawl access, canonical signals, content quality and search-engine decisions.

Why are changefreq and priority omitted?

Major search engines generally ignore them. Accurate URL inclusion matters more than invented frequency or priority values.

Why is lastmod not added to every URL?

Lastmod must represent a real significant content update. The crawl time should not be presented as an update date.

How should a large site generate sitemaps?

Split more than 50,000 URLs or 50 MB into multiple files and manage them with a sitemap index. Database-driven generation is better for large sites.

Are results stored?

No business database record is created. Short caching only reduces duplicate crawl load.
