What is Sitemap Generator?

Sitemap Generator creates a valid XML sitemap file from a list of URLs, with configurable changefreq, priority, and lastmod values per URL. The output follows the sitemaps.org 0.9 schema used by Google, Bing, and other major search engines.

How to use Sitemap Generator

Add URLs

Use the URL Builder to add pages individually with custom settings, or switch to Bulk Import and paste up to 1,000 URLs (one per line).

Configure each URL

For each URL, set changefreq (how often it changes) and priority (0.1–1.0 relative importance). Set the lastmod date to today for recently updated pages.

Set default values

Use the default changefreq and priority selectors to apply settings to bulk-imported URLs automatically.

Review the XML

The sitemap.xml output panel updates live. Verify the structure looks correct and all URLs are included.

Download or copy

Click Download to save as sitemap.xml, or Copy to paste the XML into your server or CMS.
