XML Sitemap Generator

An XML sitemap lists the pages you want search engines to crawl. This generator turns a list of URLs into a sitemap file in the standard sitemap format, ready to upload to your site root.

It is made for site owners and consultants with a known list of pages, such as a small site, a new site or a staging build where a crawler cannot see everything yet.

1. Paste your URLs: Enter one full URL per line. Add a base URL if you paste relative paths.
2. Choose lastmod: Leave it out, use today’s date for every URL, or set a custom date.
3. Review the checks: See the URL count, removed duplicates and any invalid lines.
4. Download sitemap.xml: Save the file and upload it to your site root.
5. Submit it: Add the Sitemap line to robots.txt and submit the file in Google Search Console under Sitemaps.

A five-page site, with lastmod, changefreq and priority left out.

Results shown are from the live tool.

• Create a sitemap for a small or new site without a plugin.
• Build a sitemap for a staging site or a site that a crawler cannot reach.
• Control exactly which pages are listed, so only canonical, indexable URLs go in.
• Clean a long URL list by removing duplicates before you upload.
• Get the robots.txt line without typing it by hand.

I compared this with the XML sitemap generator on ahrefs.com, read from its page on 22 October 2026.

Where they are ahead: The Ahrefs tool discovers pages from its crawl data, and mine cannot. It also leaves out redirects, error pages and tracking-parameter URLs for you. With this tool you must make sure your list is clean.

Compared on 22 October 2026 by opening each tool and reading its page. Features can change.

• The tool does not crawl, so it cannot find pages you did not list.
• It does not check that your URLs return 200 or are indexable. Check them first.
• changefreq and priority are left out by default because Google ignores them.
• A single sitemap file can hold up to 50,000 URLs and 50 MB uncompressed. For larger sites, split it into several files with a sitemap index, which this tool does not create.
• Rank Math, Yoast and other plugins update your sitemap automatically. This file is static.

Your URL list is processed in your browser and is not sent to this site or any other server. The Save button keeps snapshots in your own browser storage. The share link puts your input in the part of the URL after the # sign, which browsers do not send to servers, but anyone you give the link to can read it.
