What is an XML sitemap URL extractor?

An XML sitemap URL extractor is a tool that parses XML sitemap files and extracts all the URLs contained within them. It helps you analyze your website structure, find all indexed pages, and export the data for SEO analysis.

How do I extract URLs from a sitemap?

Simply enter the URL of the XML sitemap (usually located at yourdomain.com/sitemap.xml), and the tool will fetch and parse the file, extracting all URLs and displaying them in a organized list.

What is a sitemap index?

A sitemap index is a file that references multiple sitemap files. It's used when a website has many URLs and needs to split them across multiple sitemap files. Our tool automatically detects and processes all referenced sitemaps.

Can I filter the extracted URLs?

Yes! Our tool provides filtering options to search URLs by text, filter by domain, or show only specific URL patterns. This helps you focus on specific sections of your website.

What export formats are available?

You can export extracted URLs in CSV format (for spreadsheets), TXT format (plain text list), or JSON format (for developers and APIs). All exports include URL and additional metadata.
