Free XML Sitemap Validator
Check whether a sitemap can be fetched and parsed, then separate hard errors from warnings and informational limits.
Free to use. No login required.
How to use Sitemap Validator
- Paste a direct sitemap URL.
- Validate the file using ShipNLaunch's bounded remote parser.
- Review errors, warnings, and info notes before submitting the sitemap to search engines.
What it checks
- XML parsing and supported root element
- URL and sitemap-index counts
- loc, lastmod, changefreq, priority, and duplicate URL checks
- Protocol limits and ShipNLaunch free-tool processing limits
Limits and privacy
- A valid sitemap does not guarantee indexing or rankings.
- Large sitemaps may be partially inspected because this free tool uses conservative processing caps.
- URLs are processed only to return this result and are not saved by ShipNLaunch.
