Bounded structural diagnostics

XML Sitemap Validator

Paste or upload sitemap XML to check its structure, namespace, URL entries, dates, priorities, and protocol limits. CorrectSitemap does not fetch or host your sitemap.

Check the XML you already have

The validator handles submitted urlset and sitemapindex documents. Sitemap indexes are checked as documents; linked child sitemaps are not fetched.

Namespace errors

Why a well-formed XML file can still fail the sitemap protocol.

Sitemap index errors

Check index structure and child sitemap locations without fetching them.

Working with other structured formats?
