Sitemap Checker

Check whether your website has an accessible XML sitemap at the standard location so search engines can discover and index your pages faster.

What is Sitemap Checker?

A sitemap is a file (usually XML) that lists all the important pages on your website. It helps search engines like Google understand your site structure and discover pages more efficiently, especially for large or complex websites.

How to Fix It

Ensure your sitemap is accessible, properly formatted, and free of broken or invalid URLs. Remove duplicate or outdated pages, and make sure only indexable pages are included.

Best Practices

  • Keep your sitemap updated with your latest pages.
  • Include only important, indexable URLs (avoid noindex pages).
  • Limit each sitemap file to 50,000 URLs or 50MB in size.
  • Use proper XML format and validate your sitemap regularly.
  • Submit your sitemap in Google Search Console for better indexing.
  • Link your sitemap in your robots.txt file.
