Sitemap URL Extractor FAQ
How many URLs can it read?
Up to 50,000 URLs from up to 20 child sitemaps, and the first 20,000 are listed. The download contains every listed URL.
What if the site has no sitemap?
The tool reports which locations it tried. Many small sites have none; search engines then find pages through links.
Is the XML parsed safely?
Yes. Sitemaps are parsed without DTDs or external entities and downloads are size-capped, so malformed or hostile files cannot cause harm.
Why are some lastmod dates missing?
lastmod is optional. Google uses it only when it is consistently accurate, so a sitemap without dates is not an error.
Can I extract URLs from a site without a sitemap?
Not with this tool. Without a sitemap you would need a crawler that follows links from page to page.
Every URL a site declares
A sitemap is the site owner’s own list of the pages that matter. Comparing it with what is actually indexed, linked or visited is one of the quickest ways to find problems: pages that are listed but return errors, sections that are missing, or old URLs that should have been removed.
The extractor saves you from opening large XML files by hand. It handles sitemap indexes, compressed files and the image extension, and gives you a clean list you can paste into a spreadsheet or a crawler.
To check whether the listed pages are healthy, use the Sitemap URL Validator, which tests a sample for status codes, redirects, noindex and canonical tags.
The extractor builds the full list of pages a site wants search engines to find. It reads robots.txt for Sitemap lines, tries the usual locations such as /sitemap.xml, follows sitemap index files to their child sitemaps and collects every URL with its lastmod, change frequency, priority and image count.
Filter the list by folder or text and export it as CSV for content audits, migration planning or competitor research. The last-modified dates show how actively different sections are updated.
Sitemaps can be incomplete or include pages that no longer exist; the list shows what the site declares, not what is indexed.
