🔍 How Auto-Fetch Works

Reads robots.txt first to find the declared Sitemap: directive.
Tries /sitemap.xml, /sitemap_index.xml, /wp-sitemap.xml, /news-sitemap.xml, and 8+ other paths.
Handles both regular sitemaps and sitemap index files (fetches all child sitemaps).
Uses multiple public CORS proxies as fallback — works for most public websites.
If a site blocks all external access, use Manual Entry or Bulk Paste instead.

💡 Pro Tips

Set homepage priority to 1.0 and inner pages to 0.7–0.8.
Use daily for blogs/news, monthly for static pages.
Google supports up to 50,000 URLs and 50 MB per sitemap file.
Place sitemap.xml at your domain root: example.com/sitemap.xml
Add Sitemap: https://example.com/sitemap.xml to your robots.txt.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Why does Auto-Fetch sometimes fail or find no URLs?

Browsers block cross-origin requests (CORS). This tool routes through public CORS proxies to work around that. Some websites block all external fetches, require login, serve no sitemap, or have rate limiting — in those cases, use Manual Entry or Bulk Paste to add your URLs.

What is an XML sitemap and why do I need one?

An XML sitemap is a file listing your site's important URLs, helping search engines like Google discover and index your pages faster. It's especially valuable for large sites, new sites, or pages with few internal links pointing to them.

How do I submit my sitemap to Google?

Upload sitemap.xml to your server root directory, then go to Google Search Console → Sitemaps and enter your sitemap URL (e.g. https://example.com/sitemap.xml) to submit it.

What are Priority and Change Frequency?

Priority (0.1–1.0) hints at a page's relative importance within your site. Change Frequency suggests how often the page updates. Search engines treat both as hints, not binding instructions.

Is there a URL limit for sitemap files?

Yes — one sitemap supports up to 50,000 URLs and must be under 50 MB uncompressed. For larger sites, create a sitemap index file referencing multiple sitemaps.
