Sitemap URL Status Checker
Paste the address of an XML sitemap (for example https://example.com/post-sitemap.xml) and the tool checks the HTTP status of every URL inside it. Redirects and missing pages are highlighted in red so you can fix them quickly.
Why sitemap URLs should all return 200
A sitemap tells search engines which pages you want indexed. Every URL in it should load directly with a 200 status. Redirects (301) and errors (404) waste crawl budget and appear as warnings in Google Search Console.
How to fix the problems it finds
- 301 redirect: update the link to the final URL, or exclude the old page from the sitemap. Use the HTTP headers checker to see the full redirect chain.
- 404 not found: restore the page, redirect it to the closest relevant page, or remove it from the sitemap.
- Index sitemaps: if you enter a sitemap index (such as
sitemap_index.xml), open it first and check each child sitemap separately.
Up to 1,000 URLs are checked per sitemap, 20 at a time. Only public URLs can be checked.
