FAQ Q: What is a sitemap and why do I need one? A: A sitemap is an XML file that lists all the important pages on your website. It helps search engines like Google discover and index your content more efficiently, improving your SEO and visibility. Q: Does this tool submit my sitemap to Google automatically? A: No, you must manually upload the generated sitemap.xml file to your website and submit it through Google Search Console. This gives you control over what gets submitted. Q: How deep should I set the crawl depth? A: For most websites, depth 3 is sufficient. Small sites can use depth 2, while larger sites with complex navigation may benefit from depth 4-5. Pro users can go up to depth 10 for very large enterprise sites. Q: Will this tool find all pages on my website? A: The tool discovers pages by following links from your homepage. Pages that aren't linked from anywhere on your site won't be found. Make sure your site has proper internal linking. Q: Can I exclude certain pages from the sitemap? A: The current version includes all discovered pages. To exclude pages, you can manually edit the generated XML file before uploading, or use robots.txt directives on your website. Q: How often should I regenerate my sitemap? A: Regenerate your sitemap whenever you add significant new content or restructure your site. For blogs and frequently updated sites, monthly regeneration is recommended. E-commerce sites may need weekly updates. Q: What's the difference between free and pro limits? A: Free users can scan up to 5 levels deep and generate sitemaps with up to 500 URLs, with a limit of 25 sitemaps per day. Pro users get 10 levels deep, 5,000 URLs per sitemap, bulk processing, and unlimited daily usage. Q: My sitemap has too many URLs. What should I do? A: Google recommends keeping sitemaps under 50,000 URLs and 50MB. If your site is larger, you can create multiple sitemaps with different crawl parameters or use sitemap index files. Q: Does this work with JavaScript-heavy sites? A: The tool crawls static HTML. Sites that rely heavily on JavaScript for navigation may not be fully crawled. For such sites, consider using server-side rendering or pre-rendering. Q: Can I schedule automatic sitemap generation? A: Not directly through the web interface, but Pro users with API access can set up automated scheduled generation using cron jobs or other automation tools.

Troubleshooting "Unable to fetch domain" Error

Cause: Website is down or blocking the crawler Solution: Verify the URL is correct and the site is accessible. Check if the site has aggressive anti-bot protection.

"Daily limit reached" Message

Cause: Free tier limit of 25 sitemaps per day exceeded Solution: Wait until tomorrow or upgrade to Pro for unlimited access

Sitemap has fewer URLs than expected

Cause: Pages aren't linked from discoverable pages or are blocked Solution: Check your site's internal linking structure and robots.txt file

Tool times out during crawl

Cause: Website is very slow or has too many redirects Solution: Reduce the scan depth or break the site into sections

XML file won't upload to my site

Cause: File permissions or FTP issues Solution: Ensure your FTP client is in ASCII mode and the target directory is writable
