Tool interface
What this tool does
Sitemap Generator helps you turn a list of canonical URLs into a basic XML sitemap in the browser so you can prepare or review sitemap content before deployment.
Related next steps include Robots.txt Generator, Canonical Tag Checker, and the Validate XML before upload page if you want to keep working on the same task from a different angle.
When to use it
Use it when you need a first draft, a random value, placeholder content, or a reusable snippet that can be refined later. Generator pages are best for starting work quickly rather than editing an existing input.
Once you have an initial result, you may want to refine it with Robots.txt Generator or continue into Validate XML before upload for the broader workflow around that output.
How to use it
Paste the URL, HTML, metadata, or campaign values you want to inspect or generate, then review the result before you publish anything.
- Paste the URL, HTML, metadata, or source values you want to inspect or generate.
- Review the generated output, preview, or status message that appears in the browser.
- Copy the result or move to a related tool after you confirm it matches the page, campaign, or launch task you are working on.

Clean XML is easier to include in tickets, QA notes, and implementation docs.
Moving into the next XML step
This is often paired with Robots.txt Generator when the workflow needs a second pass.
