Sitemap URL Extractor

Extract every URL from any XML sitemap — fetch a live sitemap by URL, upload a file or paste XML. Handles sitemap-index files, flags duplicates, groups by folder and exports to CSV.

The Sitemap URL Extractor pulls every URL out of an XML sitemap, detects duplicates, and analyzes folder depth to help you optimize crawl budget — then exports the full list to CSV. It's a fast way to audit what search engines actually see in your sitemap.

Overview

Why audit your sitemap

Your sitemap is the map search engines follow, so duplicates, dead entries, or an unwieldy size quietly waste crawl budget and confuse indexing. Extracting and reviewing the URLs surfaces problems that are invisible when the sitemap is just raw XML.

Path depth and crawl budget

Pages buried many folders deep are crawled less often and seen as less important. Analyzing path depth shows which content is too far from the homepage, so you can flatten structure and help key pages get indexed.

Private, client-side parsing

The extractor parses the sitemap in your browser and exports to CSV without uploading anything, so you can audit client or internal sitemaps without sending their structure to a third-party server.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I extract all URLs from my XML sitemap?+

Paste your sitemap URL or upload the XML file. The tool instantly parses all URLs, showing you the full list with their path depth and any duplicate entries. Export everything to CSV with one click.

Why should I check my sitemap for duplicate URLs?+

Duplicate URLs in a sitemap waste your crawl budget — Google has a limit on how many pages it crawls per day. Duplicate entries also signal poor site structure and can split your ranking signals between the same content.

What is path depth in a sitemap?+

Path depth is the number of folder levels in a URL (counted by slashes after the domain). /blog/post = depth 2. Shallower URLs (depth 1-2) are generally prioritized by search engines and rank more easily.

How many URLs should be in my sitemap?+

A single sitemap file can contain up to 50,000 URLs with a maximum file size of 50MB. For larger sites, use a sitemap index file pointing to multiple sitemap files. Only include indexable, canonical URLs.

Should I include every page in my sitemap?+

No. Only include pages you want Google to index: main content pages, blog posts, product pages, category pages. Exclude: admin pages, login pages, thank-you pages, duplicate content, and pages with noindex tags.

Can I use this to find orphan pages on my website?+

Yes. Extract all URLs from your sitemap, then cross-reference them against your internal link audit. Pages in your sitemap with no internal links pointing to them are 'orphan pages' — Google rarely discovers them and they often underperform. Adding internal links to orphan pages is a fast SEO win.

Why check a sitemap for duplicate URLs?+

Duplicates waste crawl budget and can dilute ranking signals. Finding and removing them helps search engines focus on your canonical pages.

How many URLs should a sitemap have?+

A single sitemap file supports up to 50,000 URLs; beyond that, split it into multiple sitemaps referenced by a sitemap index.
