Sitemap Generator
Sitemap Generator is a free tool that turns your list of page addresses into a ready-to-upload sitemap.xml for Google, checking for repeats and broken lines.
- Free
- No sign-up
- Runs in your browser
A sitemap is a list of every page on your website that you want Google to know about. Most website builders make one for you, but hand-built sites, landing pages on a subdomain and old PHP sites often have none — so new pages can take weeks to be found. Paste your page addresses here and get a valid sitemap.xml in seconds, checked for broken lines, repeats and mixed domains. It all runs in your browser; nothing is uploaded.

How to use it
- 1Paste the full address of every page you want found, one per line — including the https:// part.
- 2Optionally set when the pages were last changed, how often they change and how important they are.
- 3Fix anything the tool flags: lines that are not full addresses, repeated pages, or pages from two different domains.
- 4Download sitemap.xml and upload it to the main folder of your website, so it opens at yourwebsite.in/sitemap.xml.
- 5Submit that address in Google Search Console under Sitemaps, and add a Sitemap: line to your robots.txt.
What the results mean
- sitemap.xml
- A plain file that lists your pages for search engines. It does not guarantee a page is shown on Google, but it makes sure Google knows the page exists.
- lastmod
- The date a page last changed in a meaningful way. Google uses it only when it is honest — setting today's date on every page teaches Google to ignore it.
- changefreq and priority
- Hints about how often a page changes and how important it is compared with your other pages. Google has said it ignores both, so leaving them out is perfectly fine; Bing and others may still read them.
- Absolute URL
- A complete address that starts with https:// and includes your domain, such as https://sharmadental.in/services. Sitemaps only accept these — /services on its own is not allowed.
Common questions
Do I need a sitemap if my site only has a few pages?
Not strictly. If every page is linked from your home page, Google will find them. A sitemap still helps new pages get noticed faster, and it lets Search Console tell you which pages Google has and has not indexed.
Should I include every page on my site?
No — only the pages you want people to land on from Google. Leave out login pages, thank-you pages, cart and checkout pages, search results pages, and any page you have marked noindex.
Why does the tool warn when I mix www and non-www addresses?
A sitemap must only list pages from the domain it sits on. If your site opens at sharmadental.in, pages listed as www.sharmadental.in are treated as a different site and can be ignored. Pick the version your site actually uses.
What if I have more than 50,000 pages?
One sitemap file can hold at most 50,000 addresses. Split them into several files, such as sitemap-products.xml and sitemap-blog.xml, and list those files in a sitemap index. Sites that big usually need a sitemap made automatically by the platform.
