What is XML Sitemap Generator – Changefreq, Priority & Lastmod?

Search engines discover pages more reliably when you provide a sitemap.xml. This generator lets you paste a list of URLs, set optional changefreq (always / hourly / daily / weekly / monthly / yearly / never), priority (0.0–1.0), and lastmod dates, then download a valid XML file — all without uploading your URL list to any server.

Key features

  • Bulk paste or line-by-line URL entry
  • Changefreq and priority settings
  • Optional lastmod date
  • Live XML preview
  • One-click download of sitemap.xml
  • 50 000 URL / 50 MB practical-limit warnings
  • 100% client-side generation

How to use it

  1. Paste your URLs (one per line) or add them individually.
  2. Set default or per-URL changefreq, priority, and lastmod.
  3. Preview the generated XML.
  4. Download the sitemap.xml file.
  5. Upload to your site root and reference in robots.txt / Search Console.

When to use it

Many sitemap generators crawl your site or require accounts and store URL lists. Ours never receives your URLs — generation is pure client-side JavaScript. Ideal when you already have a URL list and simply need correctly formatted XML with the optional tags.
