Generate professional XML sitemaps from URL lists with proper formatting, priority settings, and update frequency configurations. Essential for new websites and improving crawlability with Google, Bing, and other search engines through automated sitemap creation and validation.
Complete Guide: XML Sitemap Generator
Everything you need to know about using this tool effectively
The XML Sitemap Generator creates a sitemap.xml file from a list of URLs you add in the browser. It lets you set default change frequency and priority values, include lastmod dates, edit each URL entry, then generate copy-ready XML for upload or submission.
This tool is a browser-based sitemap builder for small to medium URL lists. It helps you assemble standard XML sitemap entries manually or from presets, then export the finished sitemap markup without writing the XML structure yourself.
New site setup
Create an initial sitemap for a site that needs a basic XML file before Search Console submission.
Manual sitemap creation
Build a sitemap from a curated page list when you do not have an automated generator in your stack.
Template testing
Draft a sample sitemap structure to review field choices like changefreq, priority, and lastmod before implementation.
Small-site maintenance
Update a lightweight sitemap manually for a brochure site, docs site, or controlled set of landing pages.
Developer handoff
Generate a sitemap draft that can be copied into a file and reviewed before deployment.
Set the default sitemap options
Enter the base URL and choose default changefreq, priority, and whether lastmod should be included.
Add your URLs
Paste each URL one at a time or start from a built-in preset that matches your site structure.
Adjust individual entries
Edit each URL's loc, changefreq, priority, or lastmod values if some pages need different settings.
Generate the sitemap XML
Create the final sitemap markup once your URL list and entry settings look correct.
Copy or download the file
Use the generated XML as a sitemap.xml file for upload, review, or submission in search tools.
Use realistic values for changefreq and priority because these fields are hints, not commands that search engines must follow.
Double-check that every URL you include is the preferred canonical version before generating the final file.
This generator creates one sitemap XML file and does not build a sitemap index for very large sites.
Review the generated output before uploading so accidental staging URLs or duplicate paths do not make it into the file.
If your site already has automated sitemap generation, this tool is better for testing or small manual workflows than full production automation.
What does this XML sitemap generator create?
It creates a standard XML sitemap file from the URLs you add, including optional lastmod, changefreq, and priority fields.
Can I edit individual URL entries before generating the sitemap?
Yes. Each URL entry can be adjusted so you can change its URL, changefreq, priority, or lastmod value before generation.
Does the tool crawl my website automatically?
No. It does not crawl a live site. You build the sitemap from URLs you add manually or from one of the example presets.
Does it create a sitemap index file for huge sites?
No. This tool generates a single sitemap XML file rather than a multi-file sitemap index workflow.
Can I download the generated sitemap?
Yes. After generation, you can copy the XML or download it as a sitemap.xml file.
