Frequently Asked Questions
How the tool works
The XML Sitemap Validation Tool crawls the sitemap files you submit and finds links to new sitemap files and pages on your site. It then checks the sitemap files for links to problematic pages that will prevent them from being included in search results.
A sitemap helps search engines quickly find new website pages and include them in search results. Checking this file with our free tool ensures that search engines can read it and consider it a reliable source of information.
What exactly is being checked
In addition to the syntax of pages in the sitemap, the tool checks the server response code (non-existent pages and redirects), duplicate Title (in comparison with other pages in the sitemap), and whether the pages are blocked from indexing by the X-Robots-Tag directive and the Robots meta tag.
Is the tool always suitable
No, not always. This tool is not designed to check deindexed sitemap files (which contain links to pages that return 404s or are blocked from indexing). Such sitemaps are sometimes used to expedite the deindexing of pages.
If your site frequently adds new pages, documents, images, or videos that are promoted in search results, it's critical that your XML sitemap files are configured correctly and that there are no hidden issues that could cause search engines to stop trusting the content of these files.
