XML Sitemap Extractor & Analyzer

Parse any sitemap.xml or enter a website URL to extract all indexed pages, analyze site structure, and export to CSV or Excel

XML Sitemap Extractor — Analyze Any Website's Sitemap

An XML sitemap is one of the most important files for search engine optimization. It acts as a roadmap for crawlers like Googlebot, telling them exactly which pages exist on your site and how they are organized. Without a properly configured sitemap, search engines may miss important pages — especially on JavaScript-heavy single-page applications (SPAs) where content is rendered client-side.

Our free XML Sitemap Extractor lets you parse any website's sitemap in seconds. Simply enter a URL — either a direct link to a sitemap.xml file or any page on the domain — and the tool will automatically discover and parse the sitemap, extracting every listed URL.

What You Get

  • Complete URL list — every page found in the sitemap, with clickable links and pagination for large sites
  • Site structure breakdown — pages grouped by path prefix so you can see content distribution across sections like /blog, /products, or /docs
  • Interactive filtering — click any path in the site structure to instantly filter URLs to that section
  • CSV & Excel export — download the full URL list or a filtered subset for further analysis in spreadsheets

Why Sitemap Analysis Matters for SEO

Regularly checking your sitemap ensures that new pages are discoverable, removed pages aren't wasting crawl budget, and your site's structure aligns with your SEO strategy. For large e-commerce stores, media sites, and SaaS platforms, sitemap analysis is a critical part of any technical SEO audit.

Combined with pre-rendering, proper sitemap management ensures that search engines can both discover and render every page on your JavaScript-powered website — leading to better indexation, richer snippets, and higher organic traffic.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an XML sitemap?
An XML sitemap is a file that lists all important URLs on your website in a structured format that search engines like Google, Bing, and Yahoo can read. It helps search engine crawlers discover and index your pages more efficiently, especially for large websites or sites with complex navigation.
How does the XML Sitemap Extractor work?
Enter any URL — either a direct link to a sitemap.xml file or any page on the website. The tool automatically locates the sitemap, parses all listed URLs, analyzes the site structure by path depth, and presents the results with filtering, pagination, and export options.
Can I extract a sitemap from any website?
You can extract a sitemap from any publicly accessible website that has a sitemap.xml file. Most modern websites and CMS platforms (WordPress, Shopify, Wix, etc.) generate sitemaps automatically. If a website doesn't have a sitemap, the tool will attempt to discover pages through other means.
What does the Site Structure breakdown show?
The Site Structure panel groups all discovered URLs by their path prefix (e.g., /, /blog, /products). This gives you a quick overview of how content is organized across the website and how many pages exist in each section. Click any path to filter the URL list to that section only.
Can I export the extracted URLs?
Yes. You can export the full URL list (or a filtered subset) to CSV or Excel format using the download icons in the URLs panel header. The exported file includes all pages, not just the current pagination page.
Is this tool free to use?
Yes, the XML Sitemap Extractor is completely free with no registration required. You can analyze as many websites as you need.
Why should I analyze my sitemap?
Analyzing your sitemap helps you verify that all important pages are included, identify orphaned content, check for broken URL patterns, understand your site's content distribution, and ensure search engines can discover your full site. It's an essential part of technical SEO auditing.
What is the difference between a sitemap and a sitemap index?
A sitemap lists individual page URLs, while a sitemap index is a file that references multiple sitemap files. Large websites often split their URLs across multiple sitemaps and use a sitemap index to organize them. This tool handles both formats automatically.
